I've never built anything, but I can see the reasoning. You can pick something not currently being produced, and know what you're getting with some of your own hand-picked components. When WASRs were $400 I don't see it, but when a 10/63 is near $800 I could see why someone would just rather build. (and pay someone to build)

I have done well over a hundred of them.
I'm the biggest mall ninja here and even I didn't get on the RIP train
RIP Ammo is some bullshit. And the people at Dixie Ammo Dump(who own G2 Research, the makers of RIP) are a bunch of assholes.
Yeah, guess it’s all relevant to accessibility and knowledge.
Maybe I’ve gotten lazy with quite a few trouble free AKs and can’t justify a build.
Regarding cost, the way I value that is including the reliability and ammo cost factors. Then it‘s easy to decide.
I have Glocks, HKs, AKs and others that I’ve put 20-30x their original cost in ammo through them, so initial cost is a joke.
And that’s wholesale ammo cost from years back since I always buy in bulk.

Well then you’re certainly one that can justify it.
My areas of expertise do not include building AKs so I decided it‘s not something I can justify spending time on.
Have you ever tried to re-weld a atf torched receiver
I feel like the hardest part is the barrel and head spacing. That’s why I’ve always been hesitant. And the tooling cost
@Hayata you want this for one of your Lugers? It’s made for them. Send me your address and I’ll send it your way

If he started lifting weights, he'd be fucking huge...
Yeah. Did two milled receivers... not worth the headache

What's the legality of splicing in/welding an 80% or a 100% receiver and welding in the 3rd pin hole on one of these? Can it be done?

I can already infer that due to ATF now cutting OG barrels up in the kits we see nowadays you’d almost always have to go with a new barrel
for the right price everything firearm related I have is for sale.
Beware... No Fudd bubba'd stuff here though.
Most is NFA but its not gard as most think to transfer.

It can be, but the cost associated with doing that would be in the thousands.
