So happy I don't know where to begin. I received my 5.56 Galil today back from Jeff. He does excellent work. The lower is from CNC Warrior and the kit is an IMI parts original but it was expensive and they were aholes (dealer who sold the kits not IMI) because after being so expensive I ended up having Jeff come up with a barrel and a mag catch which I never got back after I sent it to them. Anyways here's some pics I took on top of my  Filson Packer Coat.

No one. I ordered the lower from CNC Warrior, the parts kit was ordered from someone else, the stock was from Gunbroker and the handguard from Silver Creacent. Jeff ingraved the lower and built it.

Did you get a graphite black Cerakote finish ?

He refinished it after the build, to be honest I don't know if its flat or graphite.

It's between 6 to 700, with you supplying the parts kit, keep in mind the kits supplied by Blackthorne don't have stocks and the barrels the supply with the kits are 16" and have the hand guard keeper indentation around the whole barrel. Aside from that while they claim their kits are new unless your familiar with Galil parts they will send some mixed in used AK parts and they are a real PITA to deal with when it comes to returns, if you want it engraved its an extra 175. Oh don't forget the compliance "922" parts and the receiver is the CNC Warrior version, which unless you pre ordered will have to wait and see when they do another run.

Your new rifle is truly a piece or art. You used a receiver that is making a good name for itself and you choose a gentleman who is beyond reproach to build it. Congratulations, I'm sure this fine piece of equipment will serve you well.

If you use an american made receiver, do you need 922 compliance parts?
Link Posted: 1/2/2013 6:18:55 PM EDT
[#12]
Yes, it will only count as one. Receiver 1, barrel 2, hand guard 3, hammer 4, disconnector 5, trigger 6.

Beautiful rifle, and it's par for course for Jeff's work. I'm waiting on the stamp for an SAR that he built for me, and it looks just like the OP's. (Well, except for being an SAR vs an ARM.)

Got my SAR galil back not to long ago and while I am happy and it was done nicely, I wish I would have sent it to Jeff for all those little touches that he does. I think I actually did ask jeff first but he said something like he had a 12 month backlog and I did not want to wait that long after having waited 13 months to get my stamp and CNC warrior receiver.

When he first starts his builds as part of a group, so he'll do about 8 to 10 receivers at once, the engraving process, then he'll assemble them and after maybe get to firing and sighting in or in between he'll finish them. I got mine rather quick when you look at the time frame. Placed a deposit with CNC Warrior 07/12, lower was shipped to me 10/12, I shipped the receiver with the parts to Jeff 11/12 and got it back towards the end of the month 12/20/12.
