@1260 Engineer, leave my lacky bands, foam and gaffer tape out of it!! (PS, you forgot the folded target stock packing as well)

Get your imagination head on... Anodising can be done with food colourings... So bright blue... Green... Red... You imagine it... You can do it.
Keep us updated
This is exactly the sort of thing I do... Lol.
I feel your pain.
Very nice Pete
Only one comment though chap . i would have hand stripped the cylinder with1200 wet/dry .
no way would i chemically strip a ali cylinder . ali can be really dodgy stuff around chemicals .
.
As for up gradessee @Mark Palmer . he does a wonderful line in coloured laggy bands /duck tape /and foam add ons
Ps. It looked lovely in polished Ali . dont listen to them lot there all very strange

This POS?Thought Peter would love to see your creation mate .![]()
I design and build them from scratch . there titanium and 7075A T6511.I tricky to be honest.... Me personally I like the chrome look it just a pain to keep clean, as I said I am going to try a small part first?
but I do like the gold and black too, the problem I have is what ever is done it's staying that way.
I don't want to risk, stripping the coating of again as I said in earlier post it changed everything power wise.
Regarding your guns they do look well smarteven more so as they are all polished parts

Try the brown soap polish on a bench mop .
i do the steel of my barrels with that and it looks after the steel really

Yes mate it should be fine . the anodizing should have been checked in the original manufacturers specs for the rifle.The clue should have been in your nameeither way very nice even more so knowing you made them yourself....
This part is bothering me now :-( as i must dip them in acid to anadise them again, I take it, this will be ok as it adding
a coating not stripping it off?
