Patience grasshoppa.
Just put the kit away and forget about it, and when the receivers are here and some people have built on them, break it out and build it.

I'm out of town right now, or I would send the address. However, I got an email message from Harlan at FAC the other day, just before I left indicating that I should send either my FFL or have my FFL send a copy of his license to Dan Coonan of DC Industries, who is going to make the Yugo M70 receivers. Pricing has not yet been finalized, but I'm glad to know who will be making the receivers. I know the DC Industries FAL receivers were good, so I have great expectations now for the quality of these receivers. Unfortunately, only time will tell but my expectations have been lifted. Chuck |

I heard Dan Coonan was the manufacturer of these, can any one confirm this?

Have been exchanging comments with the guy on the gunco board, cwtoyota, who is running Greenlight ? Arms out of WA state. He is building an RPK style receiver out of .063 steel and taking feedback from posters. He has photos up. Appears to be a close copy of the Yugo M70 receiver and he states he will attempt to make the spot welds correct and (custom!) serial number placement and slant-cut rear correct for Yugo kits.
I commented on issues I saw with the bends; he responded it was the first prototype used for setting up the jig, he was aware of the issues and the production units would not have it. Thus far it is an information-rich post. Sorry Templar if I violated any rules by mentioning something on another board? But it is exciting news. B |

I saw one of his prototype receivers first hand a couple of weeks ago. They really do look nice.

Harlan's project is about $70 for 100%, cwtoyota's is about $80 for 100%, and CSteel's is about $40 for 80%. CW was considering a pre-blueing option, so you could get a blued rec to virtually match the kit and then touch up the rivets easily, which may seal it for me.
Otherwise have something to shoot in the meantime and waiting for first build reports from both 100% guys. |

Got this from Harlan today:
Pics included..................    Also Greenlight Arms has a 100% RPK rec ready. They are assembling them thru Blackwell Ind. Sent my fixed stock kit last week for them to build on a complete RPK rec $250.00 inc rec with no finish. They are supposed to have bluing capability in the near future. For now I have a guy here that can do it. Should have it built in a couple weeks.  Here is what they have already done with reg rec...........  Waiting patiently........................   |

FAC has not been involved in the U.S. receiver project for the Yugo M70 AK kits.
I am involved in the group that is bringing the DCI AK receivers to market. If you have any questions, e-mail me at [email protected]. Thanks. Harlan NDS |

Went to their website and the receivers are nowhere to be found. Are you sure you got the right place? |

They are not listed on their site, you have to call them or email them for info. Blackwell is selling them for GreenLight Arms (CWToyota) who is the manufacture. Just email them at [email protected] They have built me one and building an underfolder as we speak. |

The www.greenlightarms.com receivers are excellent and all the builders/distributors are using his receivers. His came out the block first prototype near perfect. Now they are done right and he is selling his faster than hotcakes.
Everyone got tired of the wait from the others who have still not come to market. This guy knows whats he's doing and his attention to detail is outstanding. He's actually been around for a while but was a well know secret to many of us. Greenlight is known for their attention to detail and quality, and he will set them up which ever way you want it done, just ask. They also build these for you to perfection. Most everyone has given up waiting on the Dan Coonan receivers. Speed to market with the receiver made to specification and perfection out of the second one produced spells disaster for Goliath in my book. My hats off to them for a job well done and these 1.6mm are heat treated at the pivot points too. He's getting great feedback from builders who have commented on them being a drop in build with a perfect fit every time. That says a lot right there. Pricing means nothing if the unit is available and well made. Good luck. |

The DC Industries M70 are available in inventory and ready to ship. Two versions are available, one for the underfolder stock and one for the fixed stock. Orders for standard marked receivers are generally shipped out within a day of receipt of order.
Requests for custom serial numbers are okay, at no additional charge. Such requests will add about ten days of processing time to have the order filled and shipped. Thanks. Harlan www.nodakspud.com |
