>You have to be an experienced metalworker to make one that way. Well not so much. If you've got blue prints or a replica of any metal part you can go to any local machine shop have them make it for you. Of course you are going to be paying $150+ an hour for labor, but it can be done. I had to get a lot of parts machined from raw materials on an old motorcycle I restored once. There were not after market parts for it. I had to get everything that was broken or worn out made at a local machine shop. Nothing stopping me from handing them blue prints for an ak-47 receiver. Machining a gun barrel might be a little more obvious, but barrels can be bought on ebay and other online shops. Usually only receivers and frames are what is regulated, but frames can be made custom out of wood or plastic.
