    That slip on front site band is slick as can be.
    Is that the sort of work you can do with a 3 d printer?
    If that’s the case You guys should make a bunch and sell them or something.
    I’ve only seen temporary plastic inserts For determining front site blade height for banded front ramps and f/s bases.
    Or even front site protectors or muzzle covers.
    I use those canvas GI covers for my US rifles and LE’s but something like you featured would be an awesome accessory I think.

    Yes, My son took my sketch and did it in Autocad Inventor.
    It was printed on a 3D printer we have had for I think 4 years now.
    Yes, I could sell it but I think I'd rather get the Charma and give them away or just barter with it or something. Dunno.

    I need to print up another one this week so I guess I can print up a few more. I'll do one with a thinner profile or just with a sharp tip instead of flat.
