Parties ended pretty much when the $50 parts kits went up to $350 and higher. All you really need is a shop press from Harbor Freight.

Wow. These kits used to be $50? Man. I just paid $300 for mine for a common Bulgarian AK-74 with no receiver or barrel.

I remember when AKs were $70. No kit, a complete AK.

Yep. Complete kit with receiver flat.

My first AK cost $89 from Biffs in 1987.

What was the place like then? Finding anything in there now-a-days is like playing finding Waldo the stuff is so piled up.

Was across the street by Carters Taxidermy. Was no more of a gun shop than a flexible market back then. Also paid $199 for my American Arms Calcio M100 rifle same year.

I don't remember but that would have been awesome to be in the hobby then.

I have a kit I bought a long time ago, need to get it built up I guess but its just a WASR.

I always need something physically stimulating like refinishing trunk or building something. Its better to me than watching tv, atleast I accomplish something. Tv does have its place though.

I am about 90% done with my blackpowder traditions pistol kit so I figured why not build an ak? Same thing as a traditions kit right??? Jk kn that last part

There has been ATF raids made on build parties.
If somebody else builds your rifle , that requires a 07.

I talked to the guy at Meridian Ordnance or whatever the name out in Winchester, I would just pay him to build it. lots of experience.

Ahh. I remember the aeries deal.

Part of me.building this, is so that I have something to keep my hands building something and learn something new. Outsourcing it just spends my money and only.makes me.learn how to deal with less money.

yep I know that but this subject has been brought up here before. You might have better luck asking on a different forum. I don't think they are done here.

So would it still considered a build party if a few wives made a play date for their husbands, and it so happens that a few of the guys bring their own entertainment, like kids bringing blocks or Legos.

You better stay out of that area of Craigslist you keep bringing up. Foursomes or Orgies or whatever its called.

It's casual encounters. It's where you can get a great deal on a coffee table and a handi at the same time.

Im selling a coffee table. Butthere will be no handies

Tomahawk wrote:Im selling a coffee table. Butthere will be no handies

On Craigslist?

Wait. Yes the table is on craigslist and its on here.

I assumed by handies you meant handjobs, but are we talking handles or something?

No handjobs. Now that is funny, I mention a coffee table because that was the first thing I thought of, and you have one for sale. Craigslist is nutty
