[QUOTE="AKmoose, post: 990562, member: 5917"] You also need US compliant parts to be legal. Those evil foreign parts will land you in the pokey if the alphabet part of the Gov finds out. :angry3: Special tools are a big part of the cost, you'll nead headspace guages and a couple kinda unique bucking bars and the ability to rivet and a press to set the barrel at the correct headspace. I would not hammer a barrel at all. The kits builds are pretty easy if you have some mechanical apptitude and some aircraft sheetmetal experience and a way to fabricate the bucking bars. [B]The most important part is to get the correct headspace while pressing in the barrel.[/B] Too much headspace and you have a grenade, too little and you have a club. [/QUOTE]
