I was wondering why noone makes aftermarket recievers for like 98 customs and A-5s. Im guessing it has something to do with copyright law though... Someone with a mill should make new recievers that look/function better. Weight could also be reduced by not putting in unneccisary metal, and by using a lighter-weight metal. A main reason to do this would be to get a better milsim look. ------------- Chuck Norris doesnt read books, he stares them down untill he gets the information he wants. |

| It costs companys less to just make a kit to fit over the gun, rather than replace the gun. |

Think of all those parts connected inside the recievers. And as monk said, it is cheaper. -------------
