I thought about ordering some as I thought they'd sell well because of that. Then I saw the price tag.

I've mostly seen them for $299, but AIM has/had them for $275. I really like them, even though they are pricey.
Dan, I agree with the poster above that you could sell a bunch here in AR if you did a custom cerakote job the make the hog stand out. |

I've got a buddy who has Razorbacks on everything he owns. I showed him the lower and he ordered immediately. Should be here later this week. It's going to be built into a sorta Mk12 type rifle.

Dan,
How much would it be to do one of those lowers up with full color? |

Dan, How much would it be to do one of those lowers up with full color? I was going to do $400 if I did red white and black on the lower. I'm still thinking about it. Normal retail on them is $300, so I really wouldn't be making much considering the time invested. |

If someone paints it red and starts selling them, it wont be long before that someone gets a C&D letter from the University. They take their trademarks/IP VERY seriously.

I'd be more worried about the ATF. If an FFL buys a gun (lower) and customizes it prior to the sale, they've manufactured it, and it's subject to all the BS that manufacturing firearms entails. |

If you try to profit off the razorback image, they will come looking for money. I wouldn't think it would be a big deal though if someone bought it, then had a customizer finish it to the customer's specification, but then again I'm just an engineer. I leave the law to you legal eagles. |

She got a C&D letter years ago, but at that point she was tracing the Razorbacks logo. They told her at the time that she could still make her pieces, but she couldn't be the exact logo. You can't get in trouble for coloring this lower, it's not even close to the official logo. -J |

I've had to redo it about 4 times. The sharp edges make it an absolute mother fucker to get good coverage. The edges of the teeth on this one were sharp enough to cut. I'll post pics tomorrow.

Could it be shielded to protect the important parts and then put in a media tumbler to soften the edges up?

Well, I cerakoted one today. It sucked. I would not do another one, even IF I got paid to do it, which I don't. It's in the oven now, with lots of masking on it, so I won't know how it turned out until tomorrow. I hope it doesn't look like shit. I'm anxious to finish my build, and don't want to have to wait longer.

Tell them to kick rocks. |
