    There are no great men, only great challenges that ordinary men are forced by circumstances to meet.

    I would love to get my hands on one of those un-machined receivers.

    Even if it was a reject for some reason. That was my first though here. It would make a great bookend or paperweight. Then you'd find out who came into your office that was dedicated. They'd know what it was. And the conversation would change...

    The first photo shows two forging die cavities, yes? The one on the left being closer to final net shape than the cavity on the right.
