Buy 2 kits. The first one will probably okay but your 2nd one will be better.
Certain internal parts can be hard to find.

Glock 80% is the easiest 80% prolly.

No serial number. Undercut trigger guard. I wanted a project. I could built it cheaper but get it all at once from one place was easier.

Don’t know. Kentucky and Indiana won’t be a problem.
