    Back in business

    This six digit spent far too long getting tossed around and used as a torture device for former recruits such as myself. USCG CC's love to have the boots hold the M1 drill rifles out at arms length for what felt like hours. Well after my puny dremel knocked the welds off, some new wood and a new gas system it was off to Michigan. So when I got home today I saw the pick slip from the mail man. After 45 minutes of looking for him I was able to get my rifle. All I can say is WOW!, the work was impeccable. I had sent Tim a strung together rifle made from salvaged parts, and I got back a thing of beauty. I couldn't find a damn thing wrong with it. Tim obviously takes a lot of pride in his work, and It shows.
    I hope to get to the range in the next week, I'll be sure to post more then. DSC_7568.jpg

    These are custom made at a machine shop near me and they are machined from a solid billet.

    Just started doing them. Maybe a week. I had a few rifles earlier I tried them out on when I had some test bands. Just recently got them in quantity.

    Here is my own home made version that I had you use on my G about a year and half ago.

    Yah bucky, the one I'm using is thicker, wouldn't even work with the old style barrel. It's a gas port thing.
