Thanks. That is the least of my worries. My daughter did that spider for my about 40 years ago. Just can't get the courage to move it. She now lives out in Taos NM where they have spiders that size.
Edit: New Builds Taking Form
Gathering all the parts for my next build.
So far:
Fulton m21 receiver
Satern heavy stainless barrel
GI op rod, trigger, and bolt
GI NM hooded rear site and SEI nm front site
Unitized (welded) SAI gas cylinder
T44 reproduction stock inlet for dummy selector by Ted Brown
Not going to bed this one, but hoping it’ll be a real shooter none the less

Got out with Bula XM21 #211 for a few minutes. Knocked out 50 rnds of good ammo for a start to break in the Liberty barrel. Hit to the right on the left target was from a target above before an elevation correction. OOPS. Looks like the Liberty SS barrels can shoot. I have more on the way. Whatta Hobby!

Time will tell. I have thousands of rnds through my heavy Kreigers and only 50 through this Liberty. My thought is they " should " perform very close to the same. Nice thing about any barrel is that they are an expendable and easily changed out when the time comes. Whatta Hobby!

Back when CT first imposed the AW ban, Hoffman's Gun Store had a bunch of mini-14's made with the two bottom ports of the flash hider not cut through and permanently affixed; making it a muzzle compensator but looking like a FH. I like it better than a FH. Maybe you can do the same.

NY requires a plain barrel, hence the dummy FH. No brakes or FH on scary rifles.

@anthonypd to be totally compliant, the set screw for the castle nut needs a tig weld. This way NY is satisfied it can't be swapped back to a non compliant, more dangerous rifle.

Add on edit: Very nice builds, brother. I should have said that first.

Anthony, the flash hiders look great. Were they bored and sleeved USGI? Also, I'm a fan of that Bisonite look bedding. Is it Acraglas?

Exactly! Bored, sleeved, silver soldered, and then reamed to NM specs. The forum member who made these does not want to be inundated with any requests (understandably doesn’t want making these to no longer be fun), but he did amazing work. I think he even mentioned beveling the end of the sleeve to have a nice finished look to it. Truly great skill to be found on this forum.
Carl Leisinger is doing the bedding. I believe he uses the brown version of this:
Pro-Bed 2000 Stock Bedding Epoxy - Pro-Bed 2000 Stock Bedding Epoxy
Pro-Bed 2000 The ultimate epoxy bedding compound! Epoxy or glass bedding has been popular for many years as a tool for accurizing rifles of all types. Accuracy depends on shot-to-shot consistency. A great deal of a rifle’s ability to achieve this consistency is dictated by the relationship of...
