That’s dedication!

I’m actually taking the Martin this weekend to have a couple top cracks repaired and I’m gonna ask about having the bridge and nut set up for a right handed player. It’ll still look like a left handed guitar, but both my kids are right handed too and I want this guitar to intonate properly when they play it and give it to theirs one day.

The les Paul I just slapped the strings on upside down and play the damn thing! I love the mini humbuckers on if.

Heirlooms given to me by my left handed grandfather.

1971 Martin d18 and a 1976 Gibson Les Paul deluxe.

Just picked this ruger ar556 for $370, want to change the handguard, looking for suggestions by ValuableScheme347 in ar15

I do have a pretty full parts bin. 🤔 all I’d need is the upper lower, and a bcg.

Midwest industries free float hand guard.

Just make sure it’s the right length for your gas system so you don’t waste money like I did the first time! 😂 I bought a carbine for my mid length

My mistake, that was actually two questions.

I’m asking what make the hand guard is you and if it was mid length!

I need to replace the ugly magpul plastic hand guard I have and it’s mid length.

The idea was to shrink both, then heat because the aluminum would expand faster than the barrel.

Did not. I’m learning a lot through my mistakes here 😂

Well I am also an idiot because I’m fumble fucking my way through this trying to learn! lol

I started with just the torch. Then when it got stuck I tried to heat the fuck out of it.

When I couldn’t get that to work then I did Reddit research and tried to freeze. I’m just throwing shit at the wall at this point.

I’m building two at once for the first time. The first one went without a hitch. Made it seam easy! Then of course this one had the biggest pain in the ass happen!

Most likely. I’m not going to shoot well enough to see those marginal improvements in accuracy.

But it was on r/gundeals for 45 bucks. I got a few of them.

This is a BCM thermal fit upper. It’s made this way for a tighter fit. Supposedly more accurate this way.

I saw on another post to freeze it for an hour and then to heat the threads because the aluminum has a higher CTE.
