Most Russian firearms are unless materials were low. The manual I got with my m-44 said it was soldier proof. Its like the AK line built to be abused. I wish all my firearms came with a chrome barrel. Could I get my firearms barrels chromed by a gunsmith or will this affect the bullet spacing.

I personally am an amateur firearms historian I love "tale of the gun" on the history channel is one of my favorite shows, hell my management final was a company report on the Sturm and Ruger company.
