    Well, when I say that I made the nose caps, I actually had them made for me and I just took the raw machined pieces and finished them up. Credit must go to the master machinist and the full blown commercial machine shop.

    Chance would have it, I found a clever lad who can make just about anything if he has a sample to copy.
    The programs have been saved. The CNC mill can spit them out to order.

    The barrel bands on the carbines are actually long Lee rifle bands that I reforged to remove the shoulders and draw them out a bit for them to be reformed as carbine bands.

    New made ones are in the works.
