Good catch upper and BCG were built from a 6920 upper and need to get them added to my spreadsheet. I don’t know how I missed that chunk of change, CH is on the sheet. |

I don't know how I missed that chunk of change, CH is on the sheet. I've heard a few other guys talk about doing spreadsheets. Not a bad idea to keep track of where each item came from. Mine would say Equipment Exchange all down the column though. Attached File |

Reading through the thread, it seems like std carbine spring / H2 is what is correct to run. Do any of you run anything different like sprinco or geissele springs and h2’s? What color/ buffer combo’s are working well for you guys?
Thanks in advance |

Thanks in advance I run the Damage industries enhanced spring and an H2 buffer. I think it functions the same as a brand new standard spring but is more consistent and doesn't really wear out or sag. |

Dyzastr.no to Indiana, got it LOL lol. It's not a terrible place, just not great either. I'm to the point where I'd like to move away from snow. Can't stand the winters anymore. At least it's lax on gun laws. It's crazy what some people have to do in other states just to own a gun. |

Do 80% finishing services exist? I have a custom navy engraved FN clone lower and would rather have it milled out vs. using a drill press.
Figured I'd ask before investing in an actual router kit. Prob will use it once then sell it but even then I'd still need to get the lower anodized. |

I suppose if you had an ffl with a machine shop but then they might require their info being engraved on it. Probably less expensive to buy the router and jig especially if you plan on reselling |

I'm pretty sure that's the path atf used when they cracked down on AK build parties where people would share tooling. Basically you'd have to allowed to use the companies machines and mill it out for yourself, and even then, they may still have issues with the tools not being yours. *at least that is my understanding of the process/ rules regarding making your own firearm.

Good info guys, thanks for clarification on the legalities Dzastr. Agreed this seems like more trouble than it's worth. I likely will just end up getting a router kit, cerakoting and then rattle can over it. |
