Did you go nuts with a soldering iron!  Looks good, how's it grip in the mitt?

Who did the undercuts for the hand and support hand and the stippling?

Next is a threaded barrel

I think the new Gen4's have the option for a threaded barrel, so are you going to use stock barrel or you going aftermarket match type threaded barrel?

Not sure on the barrel or can yet. Prolly a lone wolf for the barrel I imagine. I'm about to move in to a different state so I'm not in a position to begin paperwork on a can just yet so I'm not too worried about it.

Actually put a bucket of rounds through her today though. I'm really digging the RMR! I was nervous about it at first, but I'm pretty sold on it! It was raining buckets today, so if I was going to break smtg it would have been today.
