    Does anyone make an Aluminum Adj rib to replace the Factory early Un-single steel rib which is heavy on the Blaser F3 early design before the F3Super Trap, in other words an Aluminum Direct Replacement Adj. Rib

    I couldn't find anyone or the factory aluminum rib replacement, so I bought some 4160 Aluminum 1 1/4"x 3/8thsx30"inches long I am having a slot milled in the bottom to go over the rear guide, slope to be 1 1/16th x 3/16ths over 30 inches, drilled and tapped for a front bead, may install a Ctr bead later. this should reduce the Bbl weight quite a bit as factory rib is steel, Bbl is front heavy.

    Maybe these guys can help Dr: http://stockpositioning.com/index.htm
    I have talked to a gentleman by the name of Joe there, when I purchased my adjustable LOP recoil reducer from him. Nice guy to do business with.
