Re: My latest build.
Very nice. I'd like to hear more about the carbon fiber handguard. Did you lay it up or start with carbon fiber tube and do some work to it?

Re: My latest build.
I used carbon fiber tubing. I turned a barrel nut out of some aluminum bar stock that the carbon fiber would slide over then turned a aluminum collar that slid over the tube, glued the collar to the tube then screwed it to the barrel nut. I cut the cooling vents on my mill.

It's great and looks comfortable. I got rid of my triangle forearm and got a slimmer m lock. This looks way better.

Re: My latest build.
I like it - and the work you do yourself is impressive, but 8 lbs after a carbon fiber handguard and a lightweight barrel?
Is that scope 4 lbs by itself?I called to check my ZIP CODE!....DY-NO-MITE!!!
