you know I just realized something, the metral looks very similar to the MGP series that peru made, wonder if they have any connection.

This was a custom build (ignore my friend's tacticool M4 in the background lol). It's an A2 upper and Rock Island lower receiver but the body kit is Vietnam era. The triangular fore-grip makes it's easier to balance imho. Altogether it cost around $500 to make and is accurate to an inch at 200 yards. I've been mulling over building a semi-auto UZI with folding stock from parts in the near future.

Traditional long rifle kits are fun as well. Works of art honestly. Track of the Wolf is premier for their kits.

Let's say I've never done this before. I've shot before and quite enjoyed it but don't own a gun. What's the best place to start with gunsmithing? I've watched a ton of videos from MidwayUSA on YouTube. I have some fairly good tool skills though not much practical experience on CNC machines or lathes or drill presses or anything like that.

That’s beautiful sushi, thank you for sharing.

On a related note, I’ve been thinking about making my own single shot breach loading shotgun. I’d like to make most of the parts myself, just to see if I could do it, but I want to order the barrel because I lack both the machinery to make one and the confidence that I could prouduce one of any quality which would be safe to shoot from. I stumbled on barrel blanks online for a pretty good price (https://www.gunpartscorp.com/products/586800) and was thinking of buying it. A barrel blank would already have the muzzle bored out and the barrel heat treated correct? It would simply need to have the breach and hand guard attached to it. Or is it an untreated rod of steel and I’ve misunderstood things?
