    You hit the nail on the head, haha
    Another thing I remember, the rifle inherently does not have the case deflector, so spent casings are banging hard against the side of a gun, nicking the finish. Finish itself is slick and tough, but everything has limits. Soft tape glued behind the ejection port is highly advised, if current owner wants to save the resale value of a gun

    M96 needs wielding - it was wielded by hand back then by a young guy - yeh, I talked to that guy sHOT many years ago. Every receiver was hand wielded, one by one.

    The wage in the US is crazy. No one is going to sit there to wield receiver when McDonald's hourly wage is close to 20USD.

    So they aren't going to hire and retrain 1 guy to make a few hundred of these thing for a month. Literally no one with skill will do this job.

    We haven't even got into other things - there are part bins, but they need to be complete part bins. Any deficiency means no go - they can have 1000 pins but 100 springs this means they can only do 90 units with 10 saved for warranty. They probably eye ball the part bins, but after some poor souls actually sat down and counted, they figured it can't go ahead.

    "Wield" and "weld" are two completely different words, with completely different meanings. Weirdly, both words can be applied to a firearm, which makes your post above a wee bit confusing.

    You can dual wield firearms but nobody is going to attempt to dual weld firearms.
