Qikstart[501st] Posted July 30, 2013 Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 I've started a T-21 build with long-term aspirations of getting my first suit, a TD. But the T-21 is easier to do short term and doesn't require as many funds I have 2 questions: 1) Looking at Lewis gun reference pictures, I know there were versions both with and without the "cleaning kit" tube in the butt stock. Is there a generally accepted opinion on whether or not this was present in ANH? I've tried staring at screen caps and paused video but I can't make it out and haven't seen any photoshopped pics definitely showing if it's present or not. I did check the CRL and it's not called out as being required for any level of certification. 2) Can anyone provide a (preferably US) link to where they purchased their barrel ribs? I know a lot of people have used corrugated drain pipe and I saw a suggestion of using D-form weather stripping. I had tried purchasing some corrugated pipe from one big-box supply store and it didn't look quite right so I returned it. I'd welcome any suggestions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted July 30, 2013 Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 I added the cleaning kit tube to mine, why not if you are building the rest of it. I found the barrel rib material at a local second hand salvage yard, not sure the equivalent in the US. For more detailed info on the T21 head over to the MEPD forums Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
