    Any recommendations about a receiver that would be best for the group buy AK builds? I'd also like to have a G-2 trigger assembly. From what I understand, they're the best choice.
    All thoughts welcome. This will be my first AK so I want to be sure to have a good one.

    The guys from the last one that had the AKBuilder receivers worked well. Nomad and I had the tapco flats. They worked, but it was a fair amount of dremel work to get the job done.

    I think the general consensus from the build was akbuilder flats were better. Akbuilder rivit sets were better than Tapco as well. The longer rivits from Tapco were a bit to long and started to bend rather than smash.

    If going with a 100% rather than bending your own then Nodakspuds are recommended.
