Received mine the other day and couldn't be happier. Is it perfect? No, but some slightly imperfect wood doesn't make it less awesome. Love the combination of the darker wood colour and receiver finish. Personal preference but works for me. So glad I finally bought one after years of thinking about it. I smiled the whole time I shot it.

Yea it’s pretty easy. Just need a small hack saw and a file to take away a bit of material at the front of the follower to clear the feed ramps. Also have to notch the back a bit like on the steel mags so it clears the little lever that holds the bolt open.
Of course the bolt hold open feature will not work. All in all took maybe 3 mins to make each mag fit
The bolt being phosphated instead of chrome is a bit annoying. Otherwise these are great rifles.
Lois can't stop me from experiencing the manic highs and lows my body demands.
Kerosene is fuel, Brian. Red Bull is fuel. Kerosene is Red Bull.
Agree, but it is what the Chinese love to do. Look at their SKS. I polished the bolt carrier on one of my SKS's. Not chrome but looks great.
Yeah, but the other type 81s had chrome bolts right?

No, original bolt not chrome
Hard to tell from your pics, but those "scratches" look like a coat of oil might polish them off...I feel that the phosphate finish is going to be prone to scratches, but at the end of the day they are meant to be used...My 2017 upper hand guard has zero play my 2021 upper has some play. However, I have sks uppers, and vz58 uppers that have some play...I think its normal. Thats my thoughts.

It's not oil. It's scratches and they all have them (I have enough of them to be quite sure, lol). I use perma blue paste to get them out, not 100 % but good enough. Amazon was the cheapest I could find. Only paste is good, not the liquid stuff.
Just widen the tabs on the upper hand guard, easy enough.
Will look like this, you can apply more in as many steps as you wish and it gets darker
