Fixed it for ya!
Do it right!

What about a ventilated handguard, bayo lug, and flash suppor?
You've got to get tack to kool.


Can I git an AMEN here?
Colors will just jack up the overall cost. Basic flat black is 99 cents a can.

I can always thread the end of the barrel and put an AK flash hider on it.

A sling mount is needed, I'm sure there a way to make a lug too.


Now I can really start saving for a .357 lever gun.

Oh yeah, I took it apart.



I polished the chamber, (#1 documented issue for jamming) it was not bad, but I'm not in any hurry to take it apart again. I also inspected all the known trouble points while it was apart.
