I mentioned in a previous post that the stock aluminum grip didn’t have enough texture. I’m planning to switch to an aftermarket grip, but until I decide on one, I modded the factory grip to make it more functional. Ran it today in a session—it felt great. I could really lock in and stay connected to the gun.
I make my armatures out of metal, which I design, hand cut out of steel with a plasma cutter, mig welded and then I cover it with aluminum foil (to get the base shape)and add the Clay Shay, prime it, then paint. What I like about making the metal armatures is that it allows me to defy gravity with the birds standing sometimes on just one leg.
