About 20 years ago I started buying parts kits for FAL’s and AK’s when they were cheap and plentiful. At that time, I was more interested in the FAL’s, bought metric FAL uppers in bulk, and built most of those.
As things usually go for me, after that life got in the way. I ended up back in the reserves, started a family, and my career/skill set took me OCONUS. So those AK parts kits are still sitting there waiting for me to do something with them. I recently took a look and the current prices nearly took my breath away.
What I have are complete kits (with barrels and 922(R) compliance parts) - Polish underfolders and un-fired Bulgarian AK-74’s with folding triangular stock.
So I’m wondering what would be best option for me to do with these extra kits. Should I – a) build them myself and sell them? b) Have them built by a “reputable” shop and then sell them? or c) sell them as kits and be done with it? If “b)” – which shop would you go to?
