WTK where to have an AK part kit built

Post by Starbuc3 » Tue Aug 16, 2016 2:20 pm

Hey there!

I have a parts kit that has been itching to be built, but I have no time to do it these days. I heard there was a reputable builder here in KY (although the name escapes me).

Has anyone had a kit built/finished? This is a virgin kit, so the barrel needs Headspaced, and trunions need drilled (along with the other odds and ends). I would also like to have the dude (or dudette) either cerakote/parkerize/or black oxide the rifle.


thanks for any and all help!

As long as you have a registered receiver you can have one built.

Assembled by Rob at Southern Armament and coated by Armor-Hyde. SA-Arms receiver, 1964 Romanian kit from Copes, barrel from Brownells. Almost too pretty to be called an AK...haha
