Anyone have any dealings with them? Good or bad? I emailed them yesterday to get some info on their 80% Yugo receivers and have not heard anything back. I'm not worried because it's only been a day, but would like to know if anyone has had any experiences with them. Thanks Jonathan http://www.coldsteelsolutionsincorporated.com/ |

I just received two ColdSteel receivers and they look really good. I haven't finished taking apart my kits yet so I don't know how everything fits but the workmanship looks to be high quality. I ordered the thicker steel and they are quite stout. Not every shop has instant turn around on email (they're probably busy making their products) so I wouldn't worry about that. I won't be able to get back to working on these until after New Years hing These are my first builds so it should be interesting. One is a Rommy G and the other is a Yugo UF. Norm |

I just finished a build on one of their 1.6mm receivers this evening. It turned out very nice. I had them center punch the holes on my receiver. socandyman is right about double-checking the measurements. All of their center punches were dead-on except for the four at the front of the trigger guard. If I hadn't double checked, it would have been a disaster. It did take several weeks for them to ship the receiver after I ordered it, so if you're in a hurry, you might be disappointed. I was happy with my experience with them, and I've ordered another receiver(1mm this time) and set of rails from them. They are more expensive, but they add the stampings around the hammer/trigger pin holes as well as the indentation at the front of the magazine well(something I don't want to bother with). |

Well, I guess better late than never. I ordered a Yugo underfolder receiver from them simply because I don't want to deal with FFL paperwork on a completed receiver. I do have an AK builder folding jig, but don't want to mess around with folding Yugo flats in a standard jig. Thanks for the tips on the measurements issues. I thought I read on a post that they supposedly fixed those. I guess we'll see. |
