I'm on a Kalashnikov kick lately and I've been itching to build my own. It seems like the type of project that's perfect for a regular Joe like me--a little difficult but not too difficult--with an obvious reward, an off-the-books rifle.
I found this class in Las Vegas: http://rifledynamics.com/collections/ak-builder-class
It looks incredible. Knowledgeable instructors and a price high enough to keep out the riff-raff.
Downside, it's almost two large and that's before airfare and hotel. That's enough to buy an AK parts kit and most of the shop tools required.
If you have built one, where did you learn? Are there any good instructional DVDs?
I've read about build parties but the ones around here are no more because the ATF has apparently cracked down on commercial companies that host them.
