You're a North Floridan! I'm all the way down here in South Florida (Wellington). You did a great job on that rifle, looks outstanding. |

I actually haven't been to Markham Park - I've been going to the PBSO Range when they open it to the public. Also there's a new indoor range, Shoot Straight - they allow full auto. |

Here is a Polish model PMK milled AK47 built on a CNC Warrior type 3 receiver. Refinished used Polish laminate furniture that was original to the kit. Metal finish is semi-gloss Molyresin with original chrome bolt carrier group. The barrel in this instance was a Green Mountain 1960 pattern milled receiver press/pin type. Turned out really sharp. Shoots as well as it looks. |

All matching numbers 1985 Circle 11 (Radom) Polish under-folder built a couple of years ago by myself from an (unfired) virgin kit. Gun has untouched (30 year old) original factory finish. Blank Polish receiver was sent out and professionally heat treated, I bead blasted the receiver and used Cerakote on it to match the original finish on rest of gun. Barrel was sent out and chrome-lined professionally. Safety lever glides smooth using only thumb. No play in stock, locks up tight when extended or in folded position, zero mag wobble. Action is smooth as butter! Polish Bakelite pistol grip and wood furniture came with the kit, all I did was clean them up. Questions or comments welcome.

least they did a good job on yours. Mine they sent the wrong muzzle break on mine and they didn't send back my polish grip. Front sight came back bent way over. The finish on the metal was terrible with spots where they just sprayed the black on it and never cleaned up the bolts on the polish parts kit. The finish was not what I expected. I understand once a box leaves the shop its up to the shipper but when You pay for a build that's not my problem

The Meridian Ord was the worst AK I've ever owned. my Maadi and Wasr came out better looking. Charged me over 700 to build and had to wait months past delivery date View Quote Mike here, I'm the owner of Meridian Ordnance LLC. One of our other customers said you had some issues with your build. There are some inconsistencies with the problems listed here so we wanted to touch base and make it right. We've had a handful, perhaps 4 or 5 customers since 2010 with issues, and each have been remedied. Sent you a PM to do just that. Thanks much, -Mike |

I sent you a PM, I also sent you PM's a year ago and did not go into every detail. I stand by my opinion based on my dealings and the AK I own that I despise

Wow........I am shocked to see anything negative posted with Mike's name attached. Meridian Ordnance has been doing work for me for years and I have nothing but great builds and good experiences to share. He started with a couple Romanian G kit builds that are just perfect. He followed up with several Yugo RPK BFPU kit builds that I love as well as pistol to rifle conversions on several Yugo M92 and M85s. I have 5 Polish kits that will be going his way soon and 5 more will become Khyber pass builds. I would not be going back if his work was not top notch. He will make ever effort to make things right if you are not happy.
