I got lucky and managed to get one while it was in stock, and all told with the shipping it was about 410.
The kit itself is beautiful. I didn't get the hand select for a specific year, I didn't really have a preference anyways. The patina makes it look really awesome and reflective of the age and used condition, the only downside being that 80% lower I'm going with will probably stick out like a sore thumb but what can you do.
I'm still somewhat torn on what I want to do with it. I do know that I'll be doing a 14.3 pinned break build but I can't decide if I want to do a underfolder, or a side folder. The reality being that it very well could be the last AK I can get with VA's daily creep towards some kind of AWB or ban on 80% builds.
Either way I'm a ways out still, I have to get the receiver and the stuff to press it and rivet it but its a great first step.
Here's some pics. I threw the furniture and cover on a different 10/63 that I'll take a pic of later. It looks good.
