Office supplies nothing. A couple years ago, there was a guy who posted instructions on how to make a working AK-47 out of a shovel, turning the wooden shaft and handle into a stock and cutting up the handle to make some of the metal parts. The rest of it had to be ordered in, but from what I remember, he was able to fire it once it was done. Don't fear the rubber bands.. fear the mighty Kalashnishovel.
Sorry, quick correction. He turned the shaft and handle into the stock, and the shovel head was cut up and turned into some of the metal parts. I can't remember specifically which ones, but I think he said at the time that they were the ones that were hardest to legally import.
It's also nothing whatsoever to do with DIY, this guy was a very skilled gunsmith and was simply showing off a very cool project.
It's also nothing to do with 'hardest to legally import', you can get these parts anywhere you like; of course the reciever is that part that is considered a 'gun' and is controlled and you will need to fill out forms and pass background check, all normal.
And yes, you can build your own if you so desire, if you have the skills and the machinery.
Let me guess, Obama voter who is against the 2nd amendment? Just a guess I know, but a fair one.
Pet peeve of mine is the "Let me guess" thing, IMO if you were really interested in his opinions on the 2nd amendment to the constitution or his voting you'd just ask. I mean this is an forum right? Typically when I see the Let me guess type of comments I think the person who said that really has no interest in the original posters opinions and just wants to put words in their mouth or characterize them a certain way.
Also the "against the 2nd amendment" phrase is so vague as to be meaningless, to some any

And it was the receiver that he hammered out of an old shovel. I got to admit, that was impressive work, but I don't think the builder is extremely skilled or well equipped. A bit above average I suppose. He purchased the rest of the components off the shelf.

Office supply closet raids begin... Better tell the admin to order more rubber bands...
