Hey Doug, the fake muzzle brake is made from an old airplane propellor
that I had in my spare parts box. It was hollow to receive a retaining
pin that would hold it onto the propellor hub and allow it to spin - as
a result I didn't have to hollow it out, I just had to shape the outside
part into more of a tear-drop shape.

It's my intention to do the disruptive cammo under the barrel beyond the
fake brake. There is some question as whether it should be white or
light gray - I'm leaning toward white.

I am planning a build review for "On the Way"

Dave
