The costs spiraled out of control and now I'm looking at being able to buy the pile of parts, or the tools to assemble them.

DNS Guns and Suppressors has a class that provides the tools, but even that would cost money I'm out of.

The kit that I'm looking at is supposed to be already headspaced, so the barrel is in the trunnion.  I'd need the tool to press the barrel out to access the rivets.  Then press it back in once the rivets are set.

Speaking of rivets, I need the tools for the those too.

I'm frustrated that a $600 project turned into a $900 project plus tools from all the small things adding up.
