Sooo I found this strange muzzle device in the projects of Chicago and was like hey this is cool! So anyway- for those that did NOT slide a metal tube over their muzzle devices but opted for the casting method what has been your go to choice for mounting a serial? Metal Dog tag from PetSmart with all the info hand molded and jb welded? Any tips and tricks would be greatly appreciated so when January comes around I have a process that’s easily repeatable!
This is the first I’ve heard of the dog tag method but that’s a great idea! Could you elaborate on this casting method?
3M casting tape is an alternative to the metal tube and jb weld. Basically you are just wrapping the core and adding epoxy on each full wrap. Then once complete take your metal plate and epoxy it on so that it cures with the casting tape.
Oh right, I read that in the files. Don’t know why but I thought of metal casting and was intrigued
+1 for MAF tags.
Damn man you absolutely killed it with this build. Simply gorgeous 👍🏻. Sorry no advice for you tag. Fmda 😜
lol Thanks bro!
I was just going to buy the heat set tags from MAF since they’ll engrave it for you. For the FTN silencers I was going to epoxy the tag on the last layer of CF wrap. If you want to put a serial number on new lowers to make a SBR, you can add this as a cutout in the slicer and then just heat set it after it’s printed out. https://guncadindex.com/detail/MAFSerialPlateCut:a
Thanks for this- this is exactly what I was looking for and was thinking the same thing! Gonna epoxy it on the last layer of cast wrap as well! Found a few Amazon metal serial number plates as well but for the price it looks like MAF is the way!
This CF sleeve might work better than the casting tape BTW. https://sollercompositesllc.com/product/2-0in-6k-carbon-med-sleeves-sold-by-the-running-ft/
Yea print for food has a good tutorial on the cf sleeve- gonna try it out on my second one I plan to print for the 5.7
