Ok i found a party and am driving a good distance to get there and want to make sure i have EVERY thing i am going to need. This party is going to have everything to build from flats and do rivets as well. This will also be my first AK build. Ill just be building off the basic romy G kits. I have my kits all demilled, barrels pulled, rivets all punched out. I have many flats with the 2 rails from Copes. I have all the compliance parts i need.
It is my understanding that all i need know is the rivits and the Crossmember.
I figure i will get my rivits from EE here:
rivets from EEStandard AK set includes: (Tantal kits are the same EXCEPT no swell necks for front trunion)
2 each Short swell neck rivets for the front trunion.
4 each Short non-swell rivets for the front trunion.
5 each Short non-swell rivets for the trigger guard.
2 each Long swell neck rivets for the rear trunion.
2 each Metric retaining clips.
He used to have a "Need an extra rivet for the center support on "fold-yer-own" receivers." for 50 cents but now he does not have them anymore.
Or would it be better to go with Copes AK Cross Member Bushing & Rivet Combo that has all the rivits and crossmemebr included for $8.99 but then i woudl need to find the retaining clips. ANy advice on this or things i am missing would be appreciated. I do not want to look like an ASS atthe build and more important i want to walk out with a gun
