Anyone know who cuts rail pocket openings for FSB? See Pics..

I see that "ChopBoss" is no longer offering this service.

Anyone know where this can be done:

Why not buy a rail designed with the post cut out? Or get a low profile gas block installed?

Seems like a waste of money and rail integrity...

mannn chopboss used to do some hot stuff, bummer he isnt doing it anymore.

 

[SpeedyR]

check with D Wilson- he does a lot of one off stuff.

looks easy enough to have done by A. Dremel

I can do this but kinda agree that it's better to buy one designed for this. But easy enough with the mill.

I’ve done a few, a hacksaw and a few decent files are all you need, bigger problem is touch up. Easier to cerakote the rail after. If you don’t care about looks paint or a black touch up pin are also doable.

Biggest concern is making sure you will be able to reseat the the taper pins. Often you can get a punch through the handguard vent holes. But you may need to open them up

M Mr_Joshua are you in Michigan?

They make rails for that. It might be just as cost affective to purchase a pre fit rail. They would be easier to remove if need be since it's built into the design.

Cutting rail pockets isn't an uncommon modification, for various reasons.
