Looks great. What'd you use to round the foregrip, that always seems to be the hardest part for me when milling. Keep up the good work.

Lots of patience Front one with a machine ( dont know what its called in america) took me about 30 min. And the rear one, biggest parts with machine and then used a file. About 8 hours of labour on the rear one |

Twisted desert digi camo? The machene that you are thinking about for the front grip is probably a lathe. I want your rear grip........ -------------
