Shitpost / Memes A 3D Printer. A Hacksaw and a Idea.

Post image

Gonna be building a Nice little 45-70 rifle. Folding 1913 stock. Cut the barrel down just to the 26" OAL Mark. Once the stocks done. Should be fun to sling 550gr Campros at 1000fps.

I'm sorry. I actually agree with you. This is the last stupid pic I make using AI. I'm going to use the old fashioned way and use paint.

Dang, now I miss the old message board days where people posted janky images they made in MSPaint. They might have turned out as hackjobs but they had soul dangit

PA6-PA12 then annealed in 80C water for 15 mins then air dried for 24hrs is what I would use to handle the recoil.

Just don't forget, it's 660mm OAL or 457mm barrel length.

What in the Contender is going on in there...

Contender very expensive

Used CVA scout + 3D Printer = $500.

Very cool idea, please keep us updated. I've got a 44mag scout and been thinking about shortening it also.

Don’t give Garry more ideas for his list…

Love this rifle, easiest entry to 45-70. It's also a fantastic performer, quite accurate and great trigger. Make an underfolder pistol grip, that'd be nuts. Metal parts for the hinge, as I fear anything else would be iffy with that recoil.

The triggers are actually unreal for a cheap ass rifle.

26" OAL, but don't forget that you can't go less 18" on the barrel itself.
