Thanks brother. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eli Report post Posted October 5, 2021 They are definitely not like the AR platform! I had AK work done both with Lee armory in Phoenix and Wright armory in Mesa and I’m very happy with both for what it’s worth if you decide to go that route. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
