Corporal Posts: 23 Group: Comrade Member #2,128 Joined: April 2, 2012	I was asked to do so by secret weapon so I send them the template but they never payed for it and never product it ! so if someone want one I'll have to create a new model but it's relatively easy.

Second Lieutenant Posts: 914 Group: Comrade Member #1,876 Joined: June 21, 2011	You etched the brass yourself?

Corporal Posts: 23 Group: Comrade Member #2,128 Joined: April 2, 2012	Yes I do ; I bought a kit two years ago and I learned it by myself . now I can do whatever I want .
