1979 Romanian "G" kit with matching numbers. Was rusty when I got it, and has some light external pitting. Internally looks like it was rarely if ever fired. All matching numbers, Neat serial of KE 0065. Am going to build with a home bent Tapco flat, Tapco internals, Tapco muzzlebrake and a Tapco pistol grip.

Flat rods? No I will have access to a bending jig in a couple of weeks though for a short period, which is what prompted me to do this...

Wouldn't happen to have an MP5 rod/jig setup would you?

The only tools I own are a set of hand tools and a tap and die set. I'm gonna be using a bending jig that is a traveling loaner jig from The AKFiles.

Need one of those too :) My flats are still flat! Need to register them as receivers before the AWB#2!

You only have to serialize if you are going to sell them... OTOH if you are concerned about another AWB that makes sense, that way they "exist" already...
