[QUOTE="Honeybee, post: 2139151, member: 3655"] [SIZE=3][COLOR=#000000][FONT=Calibri]so I had a new customer come in with a finish problem, He desperately needed some stainless aircraft display pins blued because it was keeping an airplane grounded. Well as soon as I finished them and found out that I am now their hero for getting them out of a pinch. We got to talking and I find out that his company builds parts for a bunch of gun manufacturers. They also build a few thousand parts for the military every month, He invited me to visit his shop and so today I toured his company and he shows off the newest design in billet lowers. The finished lowers are as you can see are machined out of a solid billet. You will not get one with machine marks, they will be blasted smooth with walnut shells and then anodized black, the lettering will be color filled. Unfortunately when we were there they did not have a finished example to show me.[/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE] [SIZE=3][COLOR=#000000][FONT=Calibri]I took some pictures of it and asked him about availability to the civilian market. I was informed that they would build some for me but will be built per order because it takes machine time away from government contracts due to differences in serial numbers.
