I think I will order one of the $379 czech jobs.
Though I would prefer the plum synthetic stocks.
Sorry you got upside down on those kits.
I have always liked the czech engineering.
I’m not really upside down in the kits... I never bought the receivers so when I get the rifle(s) I have a full set of spare parts. I only have like $79 each in the kits. I also got the leather pouch with four mags, two sets for (IIRC) $40 each.
