I initially had FTF issues with crappy demilled surplus ammo as well. I found the solution was to really let the slide go when you rack it. If you ride the slide forward at all you will have feeding issues. You have to really let that sucker fly and it will work 99.9% of the time.
I ended up calling AIM surplus to cancel my order and talked with one of their guys on the phone. What he told me is that they were waiting for clarification from the AG about the legality of the rifle. Which still makes no sense since I was having it shipped to West Virginia.
There is a small wooden dowel underneath the follower that keeps it from accepting more than 10 rounds. If you cant figure out how to remove it (While in a different state, of course) PM me and I can help you out.
I really do appreciate the effort you are putting in as well as the great contact you have with the community however the blocked off mags are a deal breaker for me. In the near future however I might be looking for an SKS. Do you stock any surplus yugos or norinco sks's at your shop? I haven't...
Did the one's Gary was selling come with a sling, 5 30rd mags, bayonet and sheath? Honest question because if it is the same package I would be interested.

God I hate Maryland right now...
I understand that, and I plan on calling the FFL first thing tomorrow morning to see if he can do this for me.
Just out of curiosity has anyone here done business with EFI LLC in Inwood near
Martinsburg in WV? The guy I talked to seemed very friendly and understanding and I hope he would...
I plan on calling the FFL tomorrow to ask him about this. I hate to have to put that on the FFL especially since asking him to order things for me brings up connotations of "straw purchases" and I would hate to scare him off at this point.
I still don't see why it is an issue when I am sending it to WEST VIRGINIA.
I AM PAYING THEM MONEY TO DO SOMETHING THAT FOLLOWS THEIR RULES. BLARGH :mad54:
Yesterday I ordered a AIM Surplus' VZ2008 rifle package and arranged to have the rifle and mags sent to an FFL in West Virginia (EFI LLC near Martinsburg) in ordre to be able to pick up the 30 rounders. I know AIM will not ship the rifle to MD however because I was having it shipped to WV I...
Thank you for the answer biggfoot.
I am applying to Arizona State, Auburn, and West Virginia for college and I would like to become a resident of a state that values personal liberties ASAP. I also have family in Nevada with enough connections that could really get a foothold there.
