My stamp came back for my AK SBR. Red Jacket will be receiving my AK with a box of other stuff to create a crazy custom shorty that is sure to ring ears at the range.
This is not my first soiree with AKs, but it is my biggest, albeit shortest, thus far. This project started as a cheap blaster after I learned that Draco pistols are semi-legitimate as far as AKs go. Once I learned that I could add a fixed stock trunnion, Romanian side folding stock, and AIMR type flash suppressor and have a clone of a Romanian AIMR I was hooked. Since then, I fell into my all-to-familiar mistake of spending days on end in hotels with a laptop and a credit card. I decided not to do the AIMR and to build a crazy custom instead. Now my cheap blaster is over budget by almost three times and gets more expensive as the days go by. Lesson learned, I did not need to buy the Draco if I was just going to end up using it for a few parts. NDS receiver would have been about $300 cheaper. Oh well. It's just a game, Focker.
On a side note, the form was approved without anything in block H, so there are no, nor will there be any, extra engravings.
I'll post pictures in August or September when Will completes the build.
