AlamoShooter Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 (edited) It Will! And If the balance is even close to as good as this one it will be a Trophy Class. I have to put a leash on this one every time I let some-one handle it , just so I don't have to chase it down.

AlamoShooter Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Finger grooves I wonder sometimes Jim They are NOT finger grooves ! They are tactical brass knuckle's for close range nose busting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik S. Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Don't you keep a support-hand-forward grip? I never hold it by the magwell. Cool grooves, though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Anderson Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 They aren't finger grooves, they're rifle supporting devices so you can dig them into a barricade and shoot some raging times on the long range targets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtm Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 NO NO NO...thye aren't brass knuckels Jammie...(it is made of aluminum after all!)...they aren't "Rifle Supporting devices" Chuck!

Kurt, They only use chainsaws for horror movies and ice sculptures... Darn, Jim even mentioned the grooves as a stabilizing feature.

TRUBL Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Obviousley, you guys are NOT in the know. For the people that use them....they are infact....yes....finger grooves. For others, like KurtM....they are cooling fins. Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan 45 Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 If they were just a little bigger and had some sort of retention devices, they could hold loose change for a parking meter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z40acp Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 (edited) If you have a device for change, whats next, a cup holder? Edited March 17, 2011 by z40acp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRUBL Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 I will say however....a very sexy upper and lower. And that Hand Gaurd looks fashionable too!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9 strong locks Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 The grooves are for change holding. We gave BS a small change retention bungee. I don't know why he left his out of the build photo. The cup holder is available at O'riellys for a less than a buck and hangs well from the ejection port when the bolt is back. JK. seriously, just kidding. Spoiler Alert! The grooves are a nod to ergonomics for gripping the magwell when used with an extremely short SBR upper or pistol build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
