They are made from steel. And I'm pretty sure the barrels are government profile. I'm too lazy to take it apart and confirm. Here's a link for the rear sight.

Just bought a Toolcraft Nickel Boron BCG from PSA. Someone from the NC Gun Owners forum was kind enough to gift me an endplate I needed. Should have everything I need for my build to be complete next week. I'll buy an optic and light at another time down the road.

LAW Tactical Folder came in today and I installed the MIAD grip. I am waiting on the buffer retaining pin and spring to come in in order for the buffer tube to be installed.

Unbelievably someone bought the LAW folder for $510. I decided I'm going with a Modlite PLHv2 18350 with a Modbutton for my light. Apparently they're coming out with a new product soon so I'm going to wait until it comes out before I proceed.

A slow build by buying bargain priced quality parts as they become available is a smart move. Another approach is to buy multiples at a bargain price and resell until you break even and keep the free part. Most people think like consumers and buy at retail. Some people think as wholesale buyers.

Gotta disagree with that one. Anything worth doing is worth overdoing.

That's exactly why I bought two LAW folders so I could resell one and help recoup the costs. Worked out extremely well. Going to do it again.
