    Question has anyone used Horns Custom Rifles receiver?

    Horns Custom Rifles Has an AK-47 pistol receiver I am going to try. If this is a bad place to order from please let me know.

    I had a talk with Horn's as they are interested in advetising here. They want to be sure that people know that are not associated with Joeken anymore.

    Beyond that I know very little of their product and the quality.

    Do a search. There was a post a couple days ago on what a POS their recievers are.

    I laughingly agree with Templar's response. Horn receivers are GARBAGE. Magnus392 had a couple of them, and build Romanian kits on them. He's done his share of building AK's, and neither rifle is functional because the stupid receivers are warped. wound up welding the lower rails back on one of them, the spot weld looked like it was done by a drunk middle-schooler. These receivers are crap, man.

    Yeah Templar nailed it....so did Moon....Dont' do it! One had no work done to the top rails, the other had half assed work done...and the lower rails on both receivers where out of whack, one had them too high the other...they ran up hill! The spot welds blew threw in a few places, they are not heat treated at all....

    JUNK.

    stick with receivers that have a solid track record of being good ie. OOW, GT. and you won't go wrong

    I guess this answers my questions on whether I would let them advertise here.
