Cool gun. He must be a pretty talented metal worker.

Devil's advocate here. Even if you're doing it for your own use, is it legal to manufacture your own firearm without some special license? What about the requirement for a serial number?

For personal use you are allowed to manufacture your own firearm.  I believe this firearm is non-transferable.  No serial number needed (hence the 80% lowers for ARs and 1911s).  If you're at all interested, look into these.  You'll spend several days.

Pretty cool but is anyone paying attention to 594? Not in my world.

I did see someone post on one of the buy/sell FB pages the other day that someone couldn't produce a CPL and was a felon and not to sell guns to them. 

It was like a blast from the past...  I was thinking "Why would someone be asked to show a CPL to buy a gun... it doesn't matter anymore."

So... I'm thinking there may be a pretty large world where it no longer matters.

I asked for CPL proof on a sale so I wasn't wasting my time or the FFL's time.  If I ran into a guy trying to buy who couldn't I would've posted the same.

Valid.  I can see that.  I guess I just assumed the worst first.

Yes it is legal to manufacture your own with two reasons. #1, If you are legal to own and posses, than your are legal to manufacture. #2, If you manufacture your own firearm, The ATF wants you to keep it forever. Because of no serial, you are not supposed to ever sell it. The gray area is can you trade it for something?

When you get a kit of your choice and what is called a flat for that kit, let me know. I have all the tooling required to put it together. From start to finish, it would take 2 or 3 hours. Then you can test fire.  BTW, a flat is the receiver that has not been bent yet. There are certain flats for certain kits. If you need help making a choice, I can help with that also.

Wow! That is a amazing offer. Yes I will need help picking what kit to get, I have wanted a AK for a while but just have not had the money to buy one.

Nail guns are off the radar also
