Today at a gunshow I saw an AK74 with a reciever marked Hesse.  Has anyone ever heard of this?  I dont plan on buying it either way because the rivets didnt look very good at all, but I have not heard of this reciever/builder?

You have not heard of the horror that is Hesse/Vulcan/Blackthorn? Do a search, my friend...to many horror stories floating around out there to list..stay far away from such things.

Search button, up top. Use it. Hesse / Blackthorn as the keywords.

There's your answer.

LOL, you saw those ugly rivets too eh? I picked it up to look at and was like wtf?  Also I can only search for very limited things since I'm not a "real" member, sorry if this had been discussed alot in the past.

No problem, I didn't know you were limited. Was just trying to help. Here's a few.

There are more, but you get the idea.

No, I wasn't there, but may go in the morning. I have a Dan Wessson .357 I don't need so thought I may pick something up worthwhile for it.

Thanks for the threads, if you go there tommarow it was across from Citizen's Armory table.  Check out those rivets, one didnt even look like a rivet it was more of mashed weld type of thing lol.  Also, hello to a fellow Columbian!  LOL thanks again for those threads they provided me some good laughs
