    I couldn't decide so I bought one of each. I have a Nodak coming for the bulge trunion and i'll bend up / assemble my flats for the Polish build. Looking forward to gaining some experience on the AK platform. I see many nice builds in the INGO forums !! I hope mine turn out as good as some of them.

    I can commit to bringing a press, It's one of the cheap Harbor Freight models, 12 ton I think ? Maybe a bench top drill press.

    I received the Polish M70B1 kit from Apex today. $ 420.00 bucks for a matching numbers, EX condition, with a plain barrel in the white. A nice kit, probably was never issued. Will make a nice addition to the collection.

    What is a date that people would wanna do this? I wanna make sure the guys with the tools can be there Or else it's a wash. I will bring my press, a drill press, a couple dremel tools, 2 fold up tables, anything else you guys can remember tool wise that we used of mine at the last one at my place (bad memory)

    if we get a date narrowed down I'll talk with the guys at USDS. If it's there we will have the option to also bead blast, cerekote (for a fee obviously) and a restroom, Ect, also theres a gas station in the same lot so drinks and snacks are availible.
    they really have a nice area for this and mike was very excited about it when we talked last. Great guys over there at USDS and in between builds people could go In the shop part and check out their guns and accessories also buy ammo and mags for their new AK's.

    How big would the build area be? How many people could it hold? Is it heated?

    I have 1 obligation in early April so late March or late April is good for me.

    I would be interested in attending again, work pending of course. I have continued to expand my toolset. I have gotten a 12 ton press and some accessoires for pin removals and installs and I would really be interested in getting my builds blasted and coated. I may even look into getting one of the underfolder Hungo's to build as well. Keep the momentum going!

    Guys, I heard from Trigger Time and whatever he was working with USDS fell through. And I still haven't heard from anyone at MCFG so we are back to square one.

    I'm doing some AK building this weekend while we try to figure out what to do. I'm all ears at this point.

    The guys at USDS are very open to having the ak build party there. I just have some personal stuff going on that's taking my time so I can't organize this right now. I think putting it off till April will be best. I can help get it set up by then. I'm just not gonna be in a rush to get one set up by this month. It's too much too soon.

    I am also having issues. I have a currant medical situation that has me not knowing what is going on for the next month or so. this date was coming up to fast. We will make this happen. I will be following!
