Want +1
Looks the part, does everything, nice upgrade for any rifle. Dead keen to have a try with it, but I think you've pretty much nailed what's needed to be done here in nz. It seems all these parts are ex uk at present, which really pushes the end price up, with all the mucking around as well. It's going to have such a good feel knowing that it's nz made to, not out worked to a factory in china. Very nice, you should be proud |

Looks great. I agree, pretty pricey to buy something like this.
Well done! |

I have decided to replace the bottom jaw with a bar hook I had made my plans to have a bar hook at the bottom of it under the bottom jaw but when i was shooting it today i felt a little weird under my arm pit because of the width of the jaw. So i have come up with a new design. I started it this afternoon and will do some more on it later after tea. This bar will be made of alloy at this stage to test. Once i am happy with it i will make it out of Stainless steel.
It doesnt look like much at the moment and you may not know how it will go together but you will see later on tonight obce i have finished it what it will look like and how it will work. |

Ok finished the hook now. I must say i think i nailed this, feels so much better and the rifle is way more stable. You can adjust the hook very well with 3 points of adjustment just on the hook so you can get it to the exact spot that feels good for you.
Here are some more pictures of the build. I can now start making them for resale and start on the 4 i have pre sold. If anyone is interested in there they will be $160.00 with the hook. ![]() ![]() ![]() Edited by Nunga - 09 Jun 2014 at 2:35pm |

Mean.Fun to see the mix of designs and ideas from Steyr, MEC, our own heads haha.
I better order one to put on the FWB, although I'm not sure if I want to wings or a wing and a hook yet... and maybe one with 2 wings instead of a hook for my slavia... :) but I'll confirm that one later.

I just upload them to one of my cloud accounts generally (skydrive/onedrive seems to work the best) and then I'm good to go.... Edited by Davey - 20 Jun 2014 at 7:53am |

I decided to make this smaller and more bits. Each part will fit each other, You can pick and choose between parts that will suit your needs :)
I decided to make the Jaws out of "T" section and mill it to suit. You may also notice my new collet chuck :) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
