Hello Ardeshir. Thank you for your patience.:duim:

 

As you have seen in your Executioner application, we noticed that the picatinny rail is a bit long, should only have 2 raised sections (ribs) in the center and the holes are close to the ends as seen in the reference images below. 

 

                                                                                                                                                   Reference images

-The D-ring you presently have is an actual D-shape as opposed to a more square shape.

We believe that these two issues must be corrected before we can grant you your 7th Centurion:blush:.

We know this is a big issue, but we also know that you are a perfectionist, that you like to take care of details and that you are a very professional person. 

Also, we know that you have first hand information, so if you have any questions or complaints, you know you can contact us @Deployment Officer Team:salute:

 

Thank you very much Ardeshir!:jc_doublethumbup:

Why does this not surprise me?  You are an ANIMAL when it comes to builds, brother.  I am constantly amazed every time I see one of your new ones, and I always wonder what the next one will be!

Also note when searching for the picatinny rail, between the holes they are angled cut, I've managed to find them on Aliexpress in the past.

Hi Ardeshir!  As seen in the images below, the picatinny rail on your FD11 is close (first photo), but still not quite what we need to get you approved.  Although not specifically mentioned in the CRL, this is one of those items that since there are multiple screen references we must insist on.

 

                                                                            Example                                                                         Reference images

JJApUo1.png?2  281uiRr.png?1  MhZZSWy.png  XJZA9Z5.jpg

 

There are lots of suppliers of the correct version as seen on AliExpress (example here) but sadly shipping/delivery time is up to 2-3 months.  Ouch.  I doubt that you want to wait that long (I know I wouldn't) but here are some options:

 

If you can find a good 3D designer, you could have one made/printed.  I can't seem to find a resin or 3D one anywhere, even on Etsy. 

 

OR, if you would be willing to send me the rail you have, I will use it as a template to make you the correct one.  All you would have to do is send it to me via Priority Mail this Monday the 24th (I move to FL. on the 29th).  I will sculpt a new one, make a silicone mold, cast it in black resin and send it to you along with your original (unaltered).  I have quite a bit of experience making greebs and such as seen here and here, so you can trust me to get it right.  There would be no charge for my services/supplies.  Heck, I will even pay for return shipping to you, and you should have it in about 8-10 days from when I receive the original.  I can promise you that it will be 100% approvable, and since it would be my own sculpt there are no recasting issues.

 

The reasons I am offering this are that I know you are a fellow accuracy nut, and since these things seem to be difficult to source without paying 15 bucks or more and waiting for ages, this way I can supply them to anyone who needs one in the future right away and at my cost (probably a dollar + shipping).   

 

I know you want to get that TLJ Centurion badge under your ABS belt :D (we want you to as well) but I hope you can appreciate our position.  If you would like me to make you this part, just PM me this weekend and I'll shoot you my address.

 

Thanks for both your patience and understanding!

Just had this made.  Want to check with you about it before I finish it up.
