| Show him some pics in the marker gallery of some milled 98c's, and then he'll see how good they look milled. Hopefully he'll change his mind. |

Try to think of a technical-sounding reason, for example: Dad, i need to centerfeed the marker to allow for a reduced profile. or, dad, i need to mill of my rear sight to allow for the use of <insert object here>. like the ones above, it doesnt HAVE to make sense, it just has to SOUND like it does. ------------- CPro (w/ polished internals) 14" Bigshot BT SBS Various Rails NcSTAR D4B Macro AA 68/45

Since you mentioned new receivers in your post. Why not purchase those then Mill on them that way you won't have to worry about ruining your gun. If thats his excuse. -------------

My guess is he doesnt want you screwing something up and having to pay $100 for new recievers.

Maybe he doesn't want you screwing with his tools. Just get your own or borrow from someone who is willing to. But remember, if you screw it up, don't go to him, and give him the "Dad, I should have listened to you" speech.  ------------- A5 Rfs Dwg triggr Ricochet R5 8"Lapco Bigsht/14"CP Classic Palmers Stab.

how was that anywhere near a filter dodge... anyway... just steal the mill... hide it in your closet and mill your stuff late at night. |

I doubt he owns a mill. Most likely just dremel tools.. |
