Don't they have to be pair with a US made follower to be considered one US part together, like handguards? Is there a place to get US made 5.45 followers?
Update - U.S. built AK-74 floorplates
Announcing...
IT WORKS!
Can't tell you how happy I am. The prototype is working, need to find sheet metal that isn't galvanized & then I'm going to start pumping these out.
Question about sheet metal cutting/stamping:
What's the easiest way? To make this practical for mass production, I need to find a quick/easy way to cut out sheet metal blanks cookie-cutter style.
Short of buying a press and die-stamping them, I'm wondering what are my options? Cut-off wheels work but are not easy. What about sheet metal shears or nibblers?
Enjoy while you can... in case the page doesn't show, my Internet connection is having problems and line maintenance is scheduled for this week... again.

I'd say +1 but your math is off.DrugRunR said:I would be willing to pay $3 each for 10 plates
I would like them to have a square hole, and no markings
I don't mean to be particular but this is for a special one of a kind 5.45.
My krink doesn't need US parts due to it being a SBR
also consider these things
(1) sole source - no one else is making them
(2) Your time
With those 2 factors, I would say
$2.50 per plate 10 plate min shipped would be a fair price
Shipping will be $3.85 so that would make is $21.00
