Hey all. Some of you may have read my review on the new InterArms Ak47 on atlantic. I'm a 16 year old sophomore with a love of guns, and considerably more shooting experience than other kids my age, who think they know jack about guns because they play Call Of Duty.
Anyway, I've been in deep thought lately, and hell even lost sleep, over building my own guns. I already got my parents OK. I've done quite a bit of research to see what I'm getting myself into... Now this would be something I'd do in my little free time but something I would definetly rather do than play xbox! This hobby would probably be a Sunday thing (gf, grades... you older guys know).
I've researched a bit and figured out that Aks, my favorite platform, are way harder to build. I was thinking about this reciever

and a romy G kit.
This may be a lengthy thread but I do need some help... all of the guides ive read seem to be directed towards older dudes with experience building K's. I am aware of the ffl crap, already went through that, but:
1. is the above reciever a 100% reciever, DOES IT HAVE THE RAILS on it already?
2. Will the reciever be ready for me to begin work on it, no drilling/welding?
I'm also havign some issues with tools. No source will tell me what I need. are the tools neccessary common things I have around home? I have lots of hardware/tools, however I have no 10, 12, or 20 ton press. IS it really neccessary?
As for the barrel, on the romy g kits, is it really neccessary to remove them also? I just want something I can put together.
I know its alot but bear with me
I'm also considering makign ar ar, which is quite easier. looking at cheap del-ton kits, im not looking for extreme sharpshooter .1moa rifles. I want a measure of enemy gun that will work.
hopefully I can get a bit of help, I'm looking forward to anyone that can help me. hopefully i explained it well enough. I dont want/have time or tools to bend my own flats. I want a 100% reciever that i can start buiding on. also, *** is headspacing
