need to give props to roguefactor for milling my rail. i know many of you have seen his posts for the ule rail milling. in addition to the internal 'lightening' i also opted to get the wings shaved off my rail. did this to lighten it a little more and more importantly because i dont think they do anything cosmetically. (just my 2 cents). needless to say i need to polish it much better. this was 20 minutes with 600 grit, i plan on polishing it to a mirror shine. overall, great work from roguefactor, i highly recommend him.

Very nice. I plan on getting the same exact thing done, too. I'm also digging the clear grips and mini body.

looks good.
Was there anything special you had to do to the mini body to fit the emag rail? Reason i ask is i want to do the same thing when i get my emag in. Thanks.

theraidenproject - thanks, btw if anyone has any clear or smoke frymarker grips theyd like to sell, im very interested.

just to let people know, i had to modify the pim hole myself. initially had planned to grind down the square on the body itself to a circle but decided that aluminum is much easier to work with, hence do the rail instead.

Can't say I really like the grips, but that looks really really nice.

If you do find another pair of grips, and you want to sell these ones, please let me know. Frymarker stopped making grips before I got a chance to order a pair. Also, I noticed the twist tie to hold the yellow pin. I had the same thing, untill I found a rubber band works much better. You might want to give it a try.

Sparq - honestly i cant say i like them too much either.

raidenproject - if i do find some frymarkers or something comparable you can have these. i just made them out of plex with a jigsaw (got the idea from loadSM5) i managed to grab a pair of nice clear 45 grips from frymarker in her closeout sale...still need some for the min-E-mag though :)

Oh so that's who's rail that was. Looks very nice. As always I'm impressed with Rogue's work.

Totaly slick. A polished 8 inch barrel would give it a killer compact look.

Wow! That would look great with a sluggo body milled like this...
