What is the value used bending jig and why don't have come on the market
more. If buy one new for 150$ bend 10 recievers I would think someone would buy it for 120-130$. Don't think they would were out fast.

...you just gotta keep building!!!

My guess is that most people build a couple, and then keep it to
build the other kits they aquire along the way. I've only noticed
a couple here and there that are used and offered up for sale.

One just went for $90 over on gunco yesterday

1: They take up very little room and cost nothing to keep.

2: They are relatively inexpensive and "pay for themselves" quickly when you are bending $12 flats instead of buying $50-60 receivers plus an FFL fee.

3: No matter how many flats you bend up, you just KNOW you're gonna come up short one or two before it's over.

4: Even if guns are outlawed, almost any old piece of scrap sheetmetal can be turned into a receiver with one. Many people like having.....options.
