where you get that lower? That awesome!!! Im a big RE fan boy lol.

 

He did that himself but you can find umbrella corp lowers every once in a while. They are pricey though.

 

LOL!
Been there and have had it happen!

 

Is that a red or green dot MRO, and how do you like it?

I just got a green one and I'm not really digging it. The dot is more yellow than green and there is a huge jump in brightness between setting 3 + 4. It was sunny out and I felt 3 was a hair dim and could easily get lost looking into foliage, then setting 4 was was too bright. I have other green dots in different brands and the dot is green.

 

Red dot, went for it due to battery length and consistency between my other optics. I like it a lot. i leave it on all the time on 3 which is good at range and in low light a tad dim in bright sun.

 

i dont think the green ones are that bad, they can get lost in certain overlit backgrounds on low settings but the glass is significantly clearer over the blue tint red MROs

 

Changed the handguard and FSB/gas block and red dot on my bedside gun, I really liked the 10.5” barrel in the 10” handguard but my suppressor wouldn’t clear even after a little dremel work so I swapped that handguard onto the 11.5” upper.

 

Is that a homemade jaw in your vise? Looks like it saddles the bottom part of the vise?

 

I’m not sure, I’ll ask one of the gunsmiths and see if they made it or bought it.
Yeah, it saddles the vise so they stay upright.

 

@IPNPULZ happy bday! I know this is you!

 

I just got done smashing 50-60 blemished barret handguards to throw them in the scrap bin. Felt bad and yet good at the same time...

 

nice

 

Oh, and in more exciting news, I have negotiated a deal with my boss. I'm going to do some sheet metal work and other fabrication in exchange for gun parts...

 

Future Son in law brought his 3D printer when they visited last weekend. He printed me a lower vise block and an upper vise block. I was a little skeptical they’d hold up but they worked like a charm.
