I havent done a uzi yet either. I am stuck on HK's right now.
HK is a good thing to be stuck on... I'm pretty much invested (tools/equipment) in AK's at the moment but if I venture out to building any thing else it will definitely be roller locks.

I'm lazy and just bought all mine that I wanted from the roller locking family . PTR does a great job at a price that's hard to beat : plus I can't weld for **** . It will show on an mp5. Then again the Pakistani mp5 I have has welds on it that look like a 12 year old made itI havent done a uzi yet either. I am stuck on HK's right now.
Good point. It's much easier to build something with loose tolerances vs tight . Some guys sit there and spend 20-30+ hours on a custom 1911.I just didn't know what you were referring to. A part kit can mean many things in the gun world. I can weld, I've rivet tools and a press. I am just not into stamped steel guns and gun that fire from a open bolt. Not that all of the do but some do. That's partly why I don't like the AK 47 platform as a whole. I know some companies are milling the some of the parts these days but they just feel cheap and look cheap. I will agree that a lot of stamped steel guns have been used by many, many special forces programs and are still in use today. It's hard to swallow that the guns you don't like are probably the most reliable, most used and most effective guns ever produced. I just can't get over the stamped steel method. It's those loose tolerances that allow them to be what they are. If I liked them I would have a gun safe full of them that I built.
Oh yeah. The worst part about a sten build is milling off the old cut tube. Real pain in the butt without the right toolsTube guns like the sten and grease gun are great kits to start with. If you dont have a lathe and mill you can still build one. A lathe and mill makes it a lot easier.
They do. I snagged my uzi and RPD parts kitsCETMEs are cheap. AKs are cheap-ish still. APEX gun parts gets a lot of neat random stuff in all the time.
