    i have had some dealings with them. i bought some parts thru them for my bren builds. they were very slow getting the parts to me, but most of it was there suppliers was the problem.

    i really like the quality of there work. i have been following there builds on the brens and have some i plan on sending to them to build. (these are what i got the parts for). the one thing i have found is they are slow in building them. they will do several builds at a time and do it in stages. is it worth the time to wait? i think it is, but if you want a good quality build that is going to look and function well to me it well worth it.

    i followed the RPD builds and they did a fantastic job on them. i would have had one built by them if i didn't already have one from another company.

    if your looking for quick, then i would go some where else, but you may not be as happy with what you get somewhere else.

    Their quality is a lot better than the DSA RPD's which have some issues. A lot of RPD owner's swear by Project Gun builds. I spent many a night reading up on them and their RPD, almost snagged one for Christmas but bought my Lahti instead.

    you furnish a parts kit for them to build on.

    Could be something we might want to try a group buy on. 7.62 did you buy a kit yet? I was going to get one of these when you bought my 1919 and never did. Looks like a good price.
