I gotta say through the years and as many builds I have done they come out quite as good if not better.(Personal I think gunplumber is one arogant sob ahole)
But now mind you at a build party YOU are the ones building,not us-we just assist,and give guidance...Now that disclaimer out of the way..

Since building here with the usual crew I find their builds to be of high quality and I haven't seen any reliability issues.Of course there are a few on some "custom" builds ie caliber conversions and blowbacks but thats a norm when doing those.

I would love to do a FAL. one day but I missed the boat on kits and kick myself in the ass for not getting into them the same time I did AK'S.
