Thread: Classy lightweight takedown

Barrel fluted, just fractionally over legal length, mil-spec coated. Swapped the front grip for some carbon fiber tube, I'm working on a carbon tube stock (just a mock up with blue tac currently). I've got a permit for a pistol grip, hopefully that plan will come together. As pictured it's bang on 2.1kg, I think it will break the sub 2kg mark... Who knows, thread an Oceania Defense suppressor on it? Taken plenty of animals with it. Recoil is fine.

Nice Joel

I'm just about to send 2 x G2 barrels and lugs for test welding.
They will only be 150mm length barrels but fully chambered because I want to see how the barrels cope with the tig welds for straightness and chamber concentricity
