Oh my god what have I gotten myself into! After researching I am finding that this is going to be a long and expensive task. To give you some idea a local company charges to build your parts kit for you for the low sum of $570 dollars +$100 if new barrel +you buy 6 American parts to make it legal ($100) +the price of the kit ($300) + receiver ($80 to $190) and that comes out to 1,000+ dollars!
When I could have purchased a top of the line model with warranty for $700-900
So instead I will do what I can, visit my old machine shop for any freebee time I can beg and borrow and save and build. This is going to be epic!
Pics forthcoming for sure, wish me luck!
