[QUOTE="n8thegr8, post: 1985915, member: 6349"] Thanks for the compliments! Mostly learning as I go, figure someone else could benefit from my experiences I'm planning on refinishing the original furniture on mine. Trigger group counts as 3 (trigger, hammer, disconnector). If you're using the original barrel and need more compliance parts, the gas piston is an easy one. I've got a trigger guard jig on order from ak-builder, should be here this week. I'm planning on using that for both the trigger guard and rear tang rivets, squashing them with an air hammer (or BFH if my air hammer isn't ballsy enough). Still weighing the pros and cons of parkerizing before/after assembly to determine the order of the rest of the build. Hopefully I'll have a drill press by christmas to finish her off. [/QUOTE]
