karlunity Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 Steel rails are the only way to go in the long run. I have used the more common aluminium ones and they simply do not last. The steel screw that holds them in place, widens over time and the sight picture goes to hell. Good work sir karl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Hess Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Ah. I wondered why you went with making one from steel, instead of just buying an aluminum one for $20 somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
