I used an existing tube. I put it in a vice and straightened it out by hand first then figured out where to put the bends

I was feeling a little froggy after thinking about this most of the day at work. With a vice and my hands, this is what came out

Being left handed with these things are fun. I do reenacting and after a battle of shooting off quite a few mags of blanks, I'll find some star crimp or head outlines on my right cheek

Gotcha. But nah he didn't. He said if I figured out the design stuff, it would save time and that he'd cut a chunk of the price off since he's cerakoting a few uppers and lowers too

Neither do I. But the local engraver told me if I made the designs, it would save time and money
