Thanks for the write-up. Now I have no excuse to not get off my *** and build one.

This is really awesome! People should print a copy out and bring it to a BP if they get lost. I do like the fact you remind people to trim the lower rails because the first time I built an AK, I didn't know, no one told me and I was wondering why my mag didn't fit. Last BP I went to, I think I told everyone there and most people didn't know

Saved them some big headaches. Thanks Mach!

The write up looks great Mach! Great photo's, and even better info. Maybe you can do a "de-milling" write up next time, and that would complete the whole circle!!!

Thanks.

Did you want me to sign it? LOL

Think it would be worth more money that way? LOL!

I'm going to print out a copy of this and bring it to Duraglock's party.

Time to watch The Pacific, I missed it the other day.

If anyone wants a Word.doc of Mach's basic guide (not including fixing stocks) let me know I recently just copied, pasted and resized things.

do we have to drill holes in the receiver so the rail can be spot welded in there? or does the spot welder make the holes on its own?

The spot welder makes holes..... but you don't want to do that LOL

Normally I heat treat and spot weld my rails before drill the holes for the axis pins because you are going to have to drill the lower rail anyways. Normally the AK builder ones aren't predrilled but I have seen some before that are.
