I'm trying to get a quote for a assembly of a Polish underfolder AK from a gunsmith in Will, Dupage, or Kane county. Before I purchase the parts, I want to price out the service as well so I know what I'm looking at out the door. If anyone is familiar with a reputable AK gunsmith who won't break the bank, please let me know. Thanks!

It's a little bit of a drive but Done Wright Gun Repair in Crystal Lake does good builds. He built my 74 and it has around 2000 through it since I got it from him last year.




I may know a few other people that may know of a gunsmith closer.  Send me an email and I'll reach out.

You could cal Breech and Barrel in Shorewood and see if he does that sort of work.  Actually, email is better.  He sucks at answering the phone.

Did you have any luck finding someone?  If so, what did it set you back?

Thanks!

No. It's something that I plan on coming back to though in the next few months. If I do find someone and have work done down the road I'll update this thread.

I would just ship it out of state to any of the proven builders. That's what I ended up doing for two of my builds.
