heres mine. stock, teth and ultralight. I put the stock in there for comparison for just how much material was removed... I played today and both frames got a royal workout. performed without a fault.







PS as I work at a machine shop and have access to all kinds of metal working tools I changed something on one of his frames... thats your only clue.

NOTE TO SELF: Always check and make sure customer has not left set screws in sight rail holes!

Wasn't me, but I do put set screws in the sightrail holes on my Emag/RTP rails. Sorry to hear that Luke, did it ruin a mill?

hope it didnt kill anything.

Didn't kill anything but the final product kind of sucks. The only way I can think of removing them is in an anno tank.

Get some reverse drill bits. Use the smallest one you have, make a hole then use a larger one and go very slow. Usually the larger one will catch on the smaller hole and that might turn out the rest of the screw. There's no pressure on the so it should just come right out.

Uggh, I hope I was not the culprit. I was in a rush when I grabbed the rails and threw them in the box... If so I'll make an additional donation to the save AO fund...

I didnt catch them before the rail was milled, the only way to get them out now is an anno tank.
