Just to point out for the sake of history (lol), before we had these nice stencilled tube kits, and before they became prohibited in Canadaa few years ago (circa 2009), we (this site) used to build partially machined tubes and sell them with our own stencils. Sold a few before the ban stick came out
The ones we sold used the old SAS-3 closed-bolt pattern.
There's lots of good build info for the MkII, which is not so different from the MKV, up in the stickies from back when I and a few other site members posted the build steps with varying availability of tooling.
nice project![]()
