The Krinkov is beautiful

Well, I picked up the Krinkov today (well, technically yesterday).  It’s beautiful.  Firing Line did a great job on the build.  I broke it down for inspection and didn’t find anything wrong with it.  My only complaint might be the missing scope rail, but the e-mail I sent in requesting it could have gotten lost in their move to a new domain.  It’s not too big a deal.  It can always be added later, and I might just wait until I have it SBR’d to have it done.  After checking it out, I braved the stiff cold wind to run 40 rounds through it.  It ran like a top.  Even with the barrel extention to get the barrel length out to 16 inches, it’s a fire breather.  I could quite clearly see a big muzzle flash.  That’ll be fun to try and get a pic of.  I took some photos with my camera phone, but only 2 really turned out any good (mostly due to low lighting for the others).  Here’s one:
