O another one if my hobbies/passions/addictions is building custom rifles. Could not be further from pen making, but it gives me another avenue to use my laser engraver. Here's a few pics of some from this year....

An AR15 pistol in 5.56 that I laser engraved the 2nd Amendment on.

And a completely custom built 10/22

.....I enjoy building and shooting these as much if not more than my woodworking. Eeeeek!

Sweet!!! I finished a ligit M4 just before the craziness and did my 10/22 in a "Sniper" style. They both are a ton of fun! That Blackout looks great!!

Thanks! Here's the first stock I put on the 10/22. Wasn't quite wild enough for me.

The 10/22 is sweet, makes me want to jazz mine up a little. At least I can still get 22LR fairly cheap.

They are fun! Only Ruger part on this one is the factory Ruger magazine.

Very very cool, I to am a gun-aholic. love both, but the 10/22 is bad a$$ mine is very similar but a few more stock parts and no flutes, that I wish I had done, but the price was right on my smooth barrel. Still
Need to do the trigger as well. Mine shoots dime size groups at 75 yards off a bench, with sand bags.
Thanks for the gun porn,
Jeff

You bet! Thanks! I've got another AR build in the works. I'm going to be doing a "Burnt Bronze Cerakote" on the upper and lower receiver as well as the hand guard. I will post pictures as this one comes together.

No longer confused....
Nice work there. I have several builds myself in the works and some of them are shelfed for now mostly due to inflated cost. The build that I love to show off is my double barrel howdah.

My latest build. On this one I sandblasted the upper/lower receiver, Hand guard and Magpul CTR stock and then applied a burnt bronze Cerakote. This one turned out really nice. Hopefully I get to go and test fire it tomorrow!
