Team Amish 1 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Looks sharp, can't wait to try it once you guys bring it to a match. You should consider adopting me, I want a new gun, too. Think about it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

latech15 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 (edited) Looks awesome. One question, I see that you milled the rear of the slide where a racker can't be installed, what was your thinking in removing that ability? Or have you figured out another way to attach a racker?

The thing I see wrong with a slide racker is........ when you go back and shot iron sights, you won't have that racker. I mount the c-more a little forward and he doesn't seem to have a problem. So when he shoots his S/S or limiteds, he's not looking for that racker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aircooled6racer Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 Hello: There is still lots of room to install a racker. Just cut the dovetail behind the breachface. Looks like a great build but lots of sharp corners to tear your fingies up with Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
