    I attended a FAL build-party in Denton yesterday - it was fun to catch up with old friends, make some new ones and help some fellers get their kits assembled into working rifles (I think 5 were fully-built with a 6th needing a locking-shoulder of the correct size.

    Austrian mating with an American - a friend's DSA receiver getting screwed by an STG barrel. You can see the (black) receiver-wrench clamped onto the receiver and the (silver) barrel-vise clamping the barrel:

    With the white and black timing-rods in place to check that the barrel is neither over- nor under-timed:

    A few more kits ready to be barreled:

    This is a great idea! Any one in DFW interested in doing something like this for AR? Meet every couple of weeks to put together a rifle?
