I'm in the Murfreesboro TN area. Just bought a Romy G kit and could use a lot of help building it. There are two of us here in the Boro that need help. Maybe we could get together for a Middle Tennessee build party.

Anyone in VT/NH area?
Looking to finish off a Romanian AK kit this summer (all demilled, have the 100% receiver) and would like to find someone with the correct tools (press, jigs) for riveting this thing together. I've got the bolt cutter riveting tools (homemade), but the more I think about it, the more I want this thing put together with a press. I've got the tools to demill a Romanian kit if anyone needs help demilling theirs. |

I'm in St. Pete, FL, working in Tampa.
Built a Polish Underfolder from a flat, now working on a Rommy G. Sold my jig and spot welder (not thinking I'd do another build), but have a mig welder and will probably do a poor man's jig this time. Should have known I'd do more than one. |

Is there anyone in Colorado, especially Denver metro area? I got caught up in the $89.95 Romy G grade C madness that Centerfire systems had going in Feb/March. I just got my receiver flat and screws the other day.
I pretty much have an idea what needs to be done but don't have the tools to geek out and bend/weld my flat. Since probably this is the only AK build I'll do I would like to borrow the tools and expertise of an experienced builder. |
