I made a fixture to bend my ak recievers, it worked nice. just wondering if anybody has made a reciever for a cetme? it doesnt look like it would be as easy as the ak.

Roland3, there have been some trials to build receiver, some are really nice, but most include welding tubes and reuseing the receiver stubs(or atleast the butt stock one) and the magazine will or parts of that. That said it is nothing like an ak receiver except they are both stamped steel, and bent. The ak has the advantage of all flat, stright bends.

Roload, you can bend an AK receiver with one fixture. A Cetme receiver has about 12 or 15 if I remember right. Perro has a few pictures of all the tooling and its not something your going to be able to stamp out or bend. I think Ohio rapid fire bought the set of fixtures for about $250,000.
Maybe you can fab something up, but it will be more like something Okie has said.

you can bend your own if you are able to find the flats, they go for around 200 bucks
