·Hey guys, Here is the shroud I made on Christmas day. It took me 4 hours but I am happy with the results. I never heard from thekrnel so I decided to make my own. First I started with a piece of 1-1/2" 6061 Solid Aluminum Rod (bought on Ebay with shipping $17.00). I rounded the rear of the aluminum so I had enough space to make Front sight adjustments. I cut the lines in the aluminum with a pipe cutter. I drilled the center of the rod out with 1/2 drill bit and then reamed it with a 5/8 reamer. If I had a lathe the job could have been done in an hour. I did this with a handheld Sears Cordless Drill. After the center was drilled I drilled to holes and tapped the holes for two 10/32 set screws. Now All I have to do is decide the finish for it. I am thinking of a flat black powder coating. Let me know what you guys think.
