After working on my butt stock adjustment mod ( Bullboss Butt Stock ), I thought about adding a clip support on my Bullboss. after looking around I decided to get the support embedded in the stock opening near the butt like that:
.
That is my first throw at it. I thought about having a thinner support, but I decided to have it fully enclosing the clips so they are not getting caught on things and have less chances to loose them. As 3D printing is hallow, I do not have to worry about the weight increase. We are talking about 12 g of plastic.
For now, I do have a tight fit and the clips are held tightly in. A small knob is holding the clip in the well by putting pressure on the center of the clip as shown there:
But I hit the butt left and right and had one clip come out at one point, not that I am seeing myself jamming my Ag while hunting, but I do not want to loose a clip either. So I am looking at printing a 2nd version of it like that.
That way I have a small latch that can block the 2 clips or one of the other. I have to wait for my filament before I can print that one. I will keep the updates coming. I went to the shooting range to test it today and it worked well. The problem with the cold is to get them out of there
More updates to come
