are you LOOKING to do some milling? big hunk of 1040 and get to it.
or are you looking to avoid the NICS? reweld job, or wait search and scour and wait until someone is selling one locally
i dont know of any sources for unfinished milled receivers.

I've always wanted to see a picture of a rewelded receiver. Wouldn't cosmetically look terrible?

pics towards the end. and there are several people that are FAR better at this gun smithing (and welding) thing than me i just used my thread because i knew i had some pics posted
...notice i didnt take any pics of the INSIDE 
if you take your time and actually refinish it after welding they can look pretty

Wow, looks good from the outside. I'm curious to see what the inside looks like. Also where side you source the cut receiver from?
