Celebrating the Armalite AR-180
I’ve had lots of folks contact me about buying these when they are available. I don’t think I could sell them fully finished for enough to pay for my time but I think I would have no problem selling them in the raw, printed state.
Anyone willing to sand and polish their own?
Heading for Salt Lake for work so let me see what I have into these for design and materials and I’ll see if I can put a price on them.
A bunch of wet sanding and I am at this point.
Next up polishing compound.
That was a little premature. Gotta go back to some finer sandpaper first. I like where this is heading.
Firearms News (Formerly Shotgun News) is releasing their second Retro Edition on July 3rd.
I thought y’all might like to see the cover.
I didn’t contribute but they did mention my web site. Make sure you pick it up when it hits the store shelves.
Been wanting a better pistol grip to use on my Nodak NDS-18S lowers pretty much since they came out.
I used an ArmaLite grip but only bought a couple before they stopped selling them. (Sound familiar?) It also didn’t have the right shape.
Since I have been working with Fusion 360 I have been thinking of all kinds of things to design. Why not a better looking pistol grip.
I’ve still got a few kinks to iron out then I can make a more detailed print. I’m confident it would be a functional part when I am done and will certainly put it through it’s paces. It is very comfortable in the hand.
I’m diggin’ it. Anyone else?
I’ll just leave this here.
