I received the firing pin, extractor, and recoil springs.
The springs are smaller than I thought they would be so I will have to make smaller rods.

I have not forgot about this build but I may have misplaced some of the parts. Time to search them out and get going on this build.

So I pick the AR-15 fcg for this build and others. Figured the parts would always be easy to obtain. NO one has the parts in stock now.

Decorb. I can send you a CETME FCG. Really neat FCG that is easy to work with.

Easy to work with? I remember when I took one apart, thought that will never go back together again. Saw the same look in MikeInMN's face when he took one apart at a build party.

Very easy if you ditch all of the FA stuff (CETME FCG) and one other piece most people leave in that you absolutely don't need.
I have it down to 4 parts and 2 pins now--and that includes safety.

I will have to take a look at that FCG again.

I ground a woodruff key cutter (by hand) to sculpt the fluting lands. Except for chambering, this cluster is functional. The next step will be the machining of a "try" frame out of aluminum. I have been putting most of my time in a 7.62x25 rifle so this build will be slow.

I just discovered that www.therifleshoppe.com has both rifle and pistol parts for rolling blocks.

I guess it is time to get back to this build. JFettig sent me a link of an auction that was selling some AR-7 mags. Well I jumped on it and I get to drive 30 some miles to pickup my winnings:
Standard Tactical Weaver Rail Laser Sight National Mag 15 Round .22 Marlin Mag. Marlin .22 15 Round Mag. AR-7, 15 Round Mag. Steel S & W K & L Frame Ruger GP-100 6" Holster Matco 30 Round Thompson Mag, U.S. .45 cal. 7 LED Visor Clip AR-7 15 Round .22 cal. Steel AR-7 15 Round .22 cal. Steel Barska Laser Boresighter Kit, .15 - .55 cal, Untested FM Tactical Laser Light Combo, Light May Need Repair Atomic Projection Clock Radio The Water Tube, Portable Water Storage System
It came to about $66, I feel like I got a deal, not a steal but a deal.

I like the new magazines. I did not realize they were higher capacity when I bid on them.

This looks like a neat project. Have you had a chance to finish it?
