Head space gauges

[Jod4991]

Does anyone have some headspace gauges for 5.45 I could rent or buy near the metro atlanta area. I’m looking to buy an ak 74. When I inspected it , it looks to be a home build so need some gauges to make sure I’m buying a rifle and not a grenade lol

Best of luck on that one! Because 5.45X39 is not a SAAMI-spec cartridge, CIP-spec gauges must be used. I know that Pacific Tool and Gauge makes them. Clymer does not, at least that I can find on their site. I don't know about Dave Manson; I can't access his site at work for some reason.

4D reamer rental will rent them. Send them to you with a return envelope so you can send them back when you're done. Good guys to deal with.
