They chose to use a quality rail and a flash hider that is compatible to their suppressor. You chose to buy it and swap half the parts out and think they make bad decisions?
Doesn't sound like you blame yourself. People who make educated purchases. Both have wrenches designed for them. Just...
That's guaranteed. I dunno why you don't use krylon at the shop instead of cerakote. No one is ever gonna need another paint job if it doesn't wear off.
Started with a dremel but switched to a belt sander and that worked like a champ. I knew what edge I needed straight and worked around it. Used a regular die set for the threads. The metal is pretty soft so it threads easy and the O.D. of the handle can be slightly bigger than it needs to be...

Thanks man. I totally agree about the shine and that one particular green I wouldn't use again. I may pick up another cold as well as another brown and give it another go on something smaller. If I get it looking good enough the FV-SR and the 15-22 may get a make over but the more expensive...
