So I got in my BCM 14 1/2" Middy Upper last night.. ($499)

 

and today..

 

wrapped the FSB with MULTIPLE layers of Blue Painters tape..

 

 

Carefully used my dremel with Reinforced Cut Off Wheel..

 

 

Then used a gray and then orange grinder stone..

 

Then some flat black (only on the bottom of the piece I cut off)

 

 

still waiting for my lower.. and LPK Kit, Hanguard, & Spikes BCG.. & MOE Stock (pin needed also) and my Miculek Brake to get here.. & I got to PIN that on for both NJ & Fed laws..

 

overall this only took about 20 mins.. and I didn't nick anything..

 

overall a good day..

Just wondering - why flat black and not blueing?

no blueing in the house.. and with handguard the bottom of that won't normally ever touch anything anyway.

Ever consider re-parkerizing it? It is really, really simple. OK, not as simple as spray paint, LOL. It is more durable though.

 

I bought the stuff Lauer sells:

Yes.. alot have done it to get it under Quad rails and FF tubes.. cut just above the rail..

 

then finish with Cold Blue after you smooth out the cuts...

That's f'd up. *sigh*

I had to do the same thing with mine...for some reason it looks naked...what a dumb rule

It's not a dumb rule, it's a dumb law. It's not that the lawmakers wanted you to saw off bayonet lugs to own these firearms. You guys weren't intended to have these things at all under the law. You just figured out that modifying these types of firearms and changing the names stamped on the side of them made many of them legal to own again.
