 Can anyone point me in the right direction?  I need to find a source for stamped underfolder AKM recievers...I got a milled one from Florida Gun Works for an arm and a leg but need a stamped one as well.  I realize regular recievers (I've seen alot of HESSE and Ohio Ord. ones on the 'net for sale) can be modified to accept such a configuration but I'd prefer to find the real deal...unless someone can tell me a way to perform said procedure with a minimum of cussing and yelling.
Thanks.

freezesquad,

There are no stamped receivers currently manufactured in the underfolder variation. The conversion can be done rather effortlessly if you have access to a mill, press, and remember the saying, "Measure twice, cut once." :) If I can help advise in any way, please feel free to e-mail me. good luck.

 Thanks...so much for the easy way out...two more questions:  Are parts interchangeable between milled and stamped recievers (i.e. trigger group, bolt, etc. designed for stamped reciever weapons-can they be installed in a milled reciever?).  Second question:  has anyone else out there run into problems getting their FFL dealers to transfer things like AK recievers?  I've been to quite a few in my area and they all balk at semi-auto's (even the frames!)...and I've got two all ready to ship but nowhere to ship to! I have a firearms ID, pistol permit, and LTC but no FFL unfortunately.
Anybody have the same problem?
