Crooked HS Precision stocks?
Re: Crooked HS Precision stocks? My stock was warped so bad that I could re mount the sling swivel in the proper position until I bought a Mcree's stock. And now I am much happier. Good luck I think since it is a new stock they should cover it.- Loopm5

Gunsmithing ? on what lapping compound for AR upper reciever
Re: ? on what lapping compound for AR upper reciever Well if you have the tools then I would be careful and make sure it's square. But I would use clover lapping compound and start 600 and go-to 800 you should be fine. Use 1000 if high surface finish is desired.- Loopm5

Gunsmithing masking tape for cerakote
Re: masking tape for cerakote You could also search for original name Kapton® tape. We use this for 720f in re-flow ovens for surface mount. I believe you can find it allot cheaper other places. The tape we use is gold and should withstand 750f and that will good enough for any heat application.- Loopm5
