    You have to swap out the mag release lever, pin and spring from the factory bottom plastic but it only takes about 5 minutes.

      Just placed my order for 2. Anxious to get these and bedded to the Boyds stocks for the GF and the Eldest Daughter. Long lead time, but well worth it.

              They have the capability to do that, but it would be up to BFT as it's his logo. Also, anyone with access to a laser can get it done. Like what I did with my neighbors laser.

                  So, FG, is this limited to the 20? Or can we go over? Seems likely we'll hit 20 rather quickly. Any thought on this yet?

                    Yep, I asked them about it already. Since these are still in the machine shop, we have some flexibility. If we go over our reserved amount of 20, they will simply make more. Granted, at some point there will be a cut-off when they have to stop and send them out for anodizing. For now though we can pretty much order as many as we would like.

                      Cool. My son has asked for a rifle for his birthday. How fortuitous. Now to find a paying job!

                              Use of the Grendel Skull Logo is fine for use on forum member orders. Sent logo art to Frontier Gear so he can send it to DIP.

                              Diggin' this project!

                                Thanks BFT.

                                DIPinc actually saw Sticks request and contacted me with an offer to do this for us. Now that BFT has approved it, I will post the instructions once all the details are worked out.
