Well I grabbed mine before the panic and the Kit was 350 and rivet kit was 10 ( bought two kit knowing that I ususaly bung up a rivet and having a spare is nice. G2 Trigger Kit is 30, and a Finished receiver is about 100. Tooling can get pricey. The good news is that most automotive/bike shops have a 12 ton or great press that is great for the rear rivets. Fabbing a jig to do it is easy, the jig to press the barrel is a simple plate and bot arrangement. The challenge is the Rivet in the front trunion. I have used a Set of Modified bolt cutters for several builds and will lend them to you if you want to cover shipping both ways. Recently a friend spent about 300 though on the AK-Builder Kit , I used it and damn does it make it easy!
