Jealous of the love that 10/22's get I decided to show some to Marlin. Started Sunday night designing it and though out the week testing various prints. Finally got to the range this morning and it was a complete success.

Thanks, now that I can make virgin receivers going to do a pistol version.
Sent a barrel out to Morgan this morning and currently drafting up a chassis. |

This is awesome. Any more details on the prototype process, the material used, etc?

Nice work!
It's too bad there's not a bigger aftermarket for these great rifles! |

Quote HistoryQuoted: This is awesome. Any more details on the prototype process, the material used, etc? The process was me just grabbing a 795 from my safe and a pair of calipers and doing the measuring. Modeled in Tinkercad (the most basic CAD program out there) then just print, test fit and repeat till everything works. Material is just standard PLA+ filament. Each print took roughly 4 hours and cost was maybe $2 each. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Very cool. How did you secure the barrel? https://www.AR15.Com/media/mediaFiles/70832/4e2uu1_-_Copy_jpg-1580605.JPG Cross pinned just like OEM. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Cross pinned just like OEM. How is the wear? I'd imagine the bolt movement puts more stress on it than the actual firing. Between this and the Mac Daddy, I've gotten more interested in printing and I'm thinking about buying one- plus I could create my own army of small scale creatures to sit in the window collecting dust.

Only have 200 rounds through it so far but holding up. If/when it does give up I'll just print a new one. Cost is roughly $3 and takes 4 hours to print. |

This is freaking awesome!! Have always had a soft spot for the 795. Please keep us updated on the wear and round count. Notice any accuracy loss going from the metal to the plastic receiver?
