Thought i would throw a pic of this up here so you guys could see it. I was hired to make a ULE body out of
solid brass for an AO member. Nothing ULE about this bad boy!

Thanks for posting XMT, looks amazing, can't wait to put it on my mag.
It looks exactly as I had envisioned.

Yes it was kinda expensive. The metal cost 6 times the cost of 7075 aluminumOriginally Posted by sQuidvision

I would love to see it polished up!

That's neat!
I'm imagining this polished and sitting on a rail made out of mahogany...
What are the plans for the rest of the build?
Carlos Danger
Eventually, once I get the rest of the parts together, I was going to run some ideas by Roger at precision powder coating to come up with a vintage looking finish on the lowers so that as the brass ages it looks like a custom vintage looking mag. That's just one idea.
Although since XMT brought it up I may go the opposite direction and get the body polished up.

Confused on purpose!
So how did you handle the impact of the bolt?Thought i would throw a pic of this up here so you guys could see it. I was hired to make a ULE body out of

enough cycles and the breach may start getting mushroomed or deformed...
Stainless Steel Bushing?
