- Start date
It’s GO time. Just needs a paint job to finish the Edog537 Custom:
Trigger Job - done (cut 2 coils off the spring)
Polished all moving parts smooth with 400 grit.
Custom 2 piece mounts - done (hacksaw/sand/paint)
Bolt Polished/3 stage process- done
400 grit, 800grit, #0000 steel wool (no zipper sound-about 500 rounds of break in worth of polishing)
Stock smoothed out/floated - done
Remove all of the mold flashing with 400grit and knocked the shine off. Relieved the barrel Channel with 220 grit and a spark plug socket. Removed the recoil pad and stuffed it full of grocery sacks to muffle the sound of the stock.
Reassemble bolt - done
Lots of cursing- made a “custom jig”
Waiting on my flash suppressor to get here from Shopruger.com
