Ask your build questions here. Welding, assembly, etc.

Starting a topic and build of your own might be better for you than posting on this topic. Also rtg did not make that rear receiver, gets the parts from brp who does make them, however.

Most of the drawings and measurements than you are going to need are found on this website site.

Also use this which oakrodent was kind enough to re-post after the first set of pics were lost.

Again start your own topic and keep adding to and posting the pics and Good Luck with your build.

Later 42rocker

I'm in Livermore, CA. It's a little bit east of the San Francisco Bay Area.

Good god. I would move out of kalifornia before I subjected a gun to that. I hate that state with a passion.

I found a 'links' forum here from the main board index which included this forum:
http://www.weaponsguild.com
Several interesting builds going on.
One build from steel tubing,.. :shock:

Also a current BRP build going on with some interesting photos over at Weaponeer:

I am also back..... not building yet, but back and can answer any questions, plus if BRP is back order on something I definitely have it. There are some errors and steps that where not put into the build that I can help out with.

BRP's site is a bit confusing, leading me to believe they were out of things. Their semi-A parts aren't under the german flag link,..

Having a non-reloadable 10 round belt like that, is one possible configuration to comply with the "assault weapon" ban in california. It is not the only option. I guess he really wanted the pistol grip, and that's what he had to do, to comply. I'm not going that route.

And moving out of the state doesn't solve anything. The entire country got a taste of the "Assault Weapon Ban" for ten years. I could spend a fortune moving to a "free state" with zero guarantee that the state politicians there wouldn't also violate my rights, or that it could happen again on a federal level. With what has happened to full-autos I wouldn't put anything past for another type of semi-auto ban.

What errors?

Mech warrior has the recent build over at Weaponeer forums which includes starting with the BRP rear kit. He is also using 'common' tools (drillpress, dremel...).

I've been looking into the ins n outs of various grip mods including:
