Hello. I would really, really, really like to try building my own AK varient. I would like to try making my own receiver with one of those pre-bent blanks. Cutting holes and such sounds easier than trying to bend something myself.
My question is, what about heat treating? What do people do? :dunno:
Is this something I should worry about? Would one of those places that treat the OOW receivers do a home-built one? It would seem that without some sort of treatment, all the holes will elongate and the top rail will wear away, right?
TIA!
