In South Louisiana?
 

I just bought a DPH jig for bending the AK receiver from flats, a 12-ton press, a set of files, a MAPP torch, a drill press, and a dremel tool, and I'm almost done assembling my first receiver. I'm still awaiting delivery of the spot welder I need to install the rails, and the headspace gauges I need to know if the danged thing is safe to fire, and I'll be finished.

Is there anybody in the New Orleans or South Louisiana area who needs to bend receivers? I have all the gear here, and I hate to think of someone else spending all this money to build one receiver, so let me know if you want to use my gear (at my home).

Don't need to use your gear but I wouldn't mind meeting up for a day at the range next time I come down to visit the folks.:twoguns:

So true my friend.

Wow. This thread got responses. I gave up after four or five months without any responses. The offer still stands about the jig usage. Email me if you'd like to come over and do a flat or two. I had a build party a couple months ago, and it was very successful. Everybody who came pressed out flats, and three guys came back in the ensuing weeks to finish their rifles. What a rush.
