I think I put this together about 2010 and I still have it. This was my first and only tax stamp. I bought the upper on Gunbroker and I think I traded a type III AK47 kit to Blaco-diablo for the lower. The butt is a my65pan piece. I put an FRS and an H-3 buffer in it and WOW, what a hooot! A little over 1.5 seconds for a 30rnd mag and the loudest gun I have ever fired. I think I will stop beating it up for a while. I remember waiting for the stamp, it took 102 days that seemed forever.

Very sexy! Im a huge 607 fan and I have a lot of respect for all the guys that were doing builds back in the early days of this forum!

@uxb was another wonderfully bad influence.

Mine took 12 years of gathering parts, moving to a free state, losing intrest, starting life over, getting re-interested, scraping some money together to finish it out, and finally filling out the F1 and sending parts to J.T.

Absolutely beautiful build! Man, I wish I still had that Type 3 kit!

I miss those days. Retro building was so cool, scrounging for parts...the OG crowd all trading ideas and learning together. Very cool blast from the past (even though I changed my username )

As a side note, the moment that Florida legalizes FRTs, my 607 is getting one. I bet that thing is a blast.

I am suprised you don't still have the kit, I sure as hell wish I did.   That was long ago, I don't think you had even joined the service yet. Nice to hear from you Brother! By the way, what did you finish this lower with? When you put an frs or frt in it you realize real fast that those are fifty cent peices coming out of the end of the barrel, about $15 worth every 1.75 seconds. It is hard to stop though.

I was just thinking, I paid $250 for the complete upper. Sounds like fantasy land.

That's a cool looking 607 build!

I'm a bad influencer, thank goodness.

Great build!

What FRS did you use?

I keep fussing at folks do FRS's with no tick safeties for the retro builds but no one listens to me

I have an Atrius FRS in it. I have 3 others and every one of them had to be fiddle fitted but they work great. This one was the easiest to install I think because the upper is genuine Colt.

I've been messing with Atrius too on some more modern builds. I have an Arizona Regulator as well that uses a regular GI selector 9with tic though) but I haven't been able to get it to run in anything yet, even with a Colt upper.

Very cool OP.

My son started on one back in the day when scrounging for parts was the norm.

I need to check with him for a progress report.
