I'm building an M40A1 action for a customer. He asked for it to be bead blasted and black oxided as well as threaded with a discreet thread protector. It's all done and going out for black oxide tomorrow.















This was a neat project.

Beautiful! I’ve got a PVA Osprey barrel done just like that and it’s so seamless that it just exudes quality and craftsmanship.




“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

Yes that fits the definition of discreet. Nice work!

Very nice benny but, you need to slow your feed rate turning as the tool marks are telling. If not an insert tool than its time to grind your cutter. Perhaps a rad at the nose and a finish cut.
