As long as it looks good, no reason to take that apart. If it is looking a bit weird, you can always take it apart -- carefully, and put a bit of oil in, make sure everything is fitting right.
If you put too much oil on the barrel/hopup, it will take a few hundred shots to work itself off again though.

You'll need to partially dissemble the gun to do this.
Can't help you on that part though, I haven't owned an AK--yet.
Your manual should show you how to strip it down enough to get to the barrel and hop-up.

My hop-up adjustment knob looks normal, it has a smooth movement both ways. I don't want to start stripping that apart and be in over my head. I may take it back to where I got it ( a VERY good shop, with a guy that REALLY knows what he is doing) and I'll leave it to him to fix this little problem and put that tight bore on, even though it's a 7 hour drive. I'll find an excuse to go. :razz: Well I cleaned my barrel, that improved the accuracy a SMALL bit. I tiny metal shaving came out on the cloth. This is a brand new gun, but who knows how long it's been sitting on the wall display in the shop, and what happened during the upgrade (even though I watched it happen). The accuracy is still allot off though. Maybe this is just normal for AEG's, maybe I'm too picky, and maybe I should just get that tight bore and hope for the best. One thing I did notice though, cleaning my barrel seems to have sped up the fps's... it shoots at 390 fps, but now when I put my paper target in front of the piece of cardboard I use, it RIPS though it!. Before it would kind of just punch holes though the cardboard. Anyway I'm still not impressed with the accuracy, but what can you do. Hey it's more like a real AK anyway right? I heard they have bad accuracy. :smack: Thanks for the help guys.
