Re: RIA / Brazilian army home build pics
it took a while but I didnt really pay attention to the time I was up til 2 a couple nights and yeah some cerakote is what I want on it but the cold blue will do for now I also want to "bobtail it" but that and a match grade barrel and a new extractor and ejector will have to wait until I get to a more moneyfied position
