But I chopped your rail down about half an inch. Please don't stop sending me Christmas cards and dillos

Once upon a time I was in the custom bike business. A master bike builder once imparted this wisdom on me. He said " Any squid can take a nice expensive chrome billet part and put it on their bike and call it custom. It takes a real man to take that nice expensive chrome billet  part, and cut it up to make it custom. "
I believe this analogy applies here....

Notice he wasn't upset about painting the part though.

no problems here, to me it doesn't matter how nice the gear if doesn't fit your needs you cut it, shape it, heat it, paint it ,what ever you need to make it work.

Why post this thread?



As soon as you started cutting Mark LaRue felt a pain in his heart.....as if you were cutting his fingers off.

Change your screen-name to "Hacksaw" and take two demerits.

I guess I'm not seeing something.  Why the half inch?

It looks to me the OP needed the clearance for use with a suppressor.

I have modded a few forearms for suppressor use over the years myself.

Yeah, he feels it in his wallet, because he knows they're most likely going to frack it up and have to buy another one.

Will do tonight. It's not pretty by any means. The part was alot harder to saw through than I anticipated. Yes it is for clearance for suppressor. Hopefully it will be here soon.

I think they are .22 LR. They were laying on the ground when I decided to do the pic so.
