Lets see some Hinderer action

Old-timey-fication complete… at least as far as I can get for now. Wish I could get a brass pivot nut and lockbar interface screw for ultimate vintage-osity, but.

A buddy knows a guy who can probably mill a brass blade stop/thumbstud, but I dunno if I’m gonna seriously entertain that.

Hell yeah brother, looks amazing. I can't wait to get my build finished, it's at bgm right now and I am having a custom scale made with real deal vintage Westinghouse micarta. Hopefully a matching filler tab but that's TBD. I hope it comes out as well as yours

Yeah - it would look great but brass is too soft for the pivot nut. I have learnt not to disassemble/assemble brass/copper hardware too often because they get deformed very easily and quickly.
