Put a 1960 Polish milled receiver bolt carrier and bolt face and put it in it and you’d go and no go gauge if everything function checks , then you good to go , change the spring and spring guide rod to a Russian or Polish made and it will shoot great

Personally, I don't like ANY Gerber product, all their products are now proudly made in Communist China! I do not support Communist China, nor companies that support communist China, by sending materials to make their product, sending their factories there to manufacture their products! Gerber has gone to the dark side willingly!! In fact I am disgusted with such companies that support Communist China! I try not to knowingly buy products from companies that support Communist China! Even the NRA has bought products from Communist China, to give away as gifts for joining, or renewing memberships! So a far as I am concerned, I will not renew my membership to the NRA! I have ignored the renewal letters, emails, and cards, etc. I once renewed my membership, and wrote all over the renewal form, "Please do not send the cheap Chinese knives!" "I do not want them!!!! Well they ignored my requests, and sent them anyway!!! I immediately went from the post office, and sent them back to Communist China, via the local land fill!!!

Scandi grinds are for green softwoods, pine or fresh cut birch, butchering meat, cutting leather and clothe etc. Scandis with a micro bevel are for seasoned softwood or medium to hard woods, for battoning cuts to poles etc and tend to develop a natural convex grind that suits the user. The origin of the grind is industrial, a grind from water powered forges. a full on scandi grind in a working situation is rarely either apropriate or practical. Unlike a modern bushcraft scenario where talking and kit is king. In Scandinavi the GK is a robust heavy duty knife that is used in the construction industry, forestry and farming and tends to be heavily abused. Theres a lot of rubbish talked about knife, chisel, and other hand tool grinds. I've used edged tools in work and select a tool as much for the grind I've but on it as its function. Cutting a joint in soft lime with a blade ground for seasoned oak is a nightmare for example and if you use a tool ground for alder, a very scandi type grind , the edge can be destroyed in say Elm.

Gerber back in the day used to live up to its slogan of "legendary blades". Nowadays, not so much. The Gerber Mk II is among the greatest fighting knives of all time, and my Gerber Mk I (shorter version of the Mk II) has lived in my boot for the last 20+ years. Back then their fit/finish was impeccable and they were using proper tool steels on their fighting and working knives rather than the 400-series which are pretty low end these days even with a good heat treat. The same thing happened with Buck knives, though arguably they've still maintained a greater overall standard of quality + fit/finish than modern Gerber.
