Posted by Kamin Ressik,

Phoenix props on whitearmor sells a complete CNC machined aluminum tube for around $80. ??I bought one and it???s fantastic. ??I purchased a deactivated sterling and ground down all the parts then attached them to the receiver tube. i spent a year watching eBay and finally found a vintage eagle hengstler counter and M38 tank scope. fire Marshall is most likely a cheaper route but I???d look at IMA for vintage parts. ?? you can weld aluminum to steel but I???d recommend going

Extremely useful visual help/info post for anyone looking to build a metal E-11 in the future!

Thanks Chris! Last piece of the puzzle came in yesterday! Already cut out the frame and cleaned. Mounting is next :)
