 someguy89 | I didn't like the look of the exposed spring, and couldn't find files or instructions for the DIY charging handle, so I went with this | 07:44:19 |
 eyeamfresh | Yeah I didn't notice the diy charging handle instructions either. | 07:45:12 |
| eyeamfresh | Hmm maybe invaderzip_ | www.Invaderzip.com can chime in on this. | 07:45:29 |
| someguy89 | there's alarmingly little documentation for the ARK. It's kinda weird | 07:45:33 |
| eyeamfresh | Lol yeah | 07:45:42 |
 capekoviroboti | the diy charging handle was a relatively late addition to the project so I dont think it got added to the docs | 07:45:44 |
| someguy89 | The instruction video is good, I guess I figured there would be a document | 07:45:48 |
| eyeamfresh | Especially since they/he did so much to organize it | 07:45:54 |
| eyeamfresh | It's still a wip | 07:46:08 |
| someguy89 | Yeah guess so | 07:46:21 |
| eyeamfresh | Can't wait to see the new files for the sumac drum mags and other stuff | 07:46:25 |
| someguy89 | my dumbass figured it out well enough so I guess it's okay :P | 07:46:39 |
| eyeamfresh | I'm gonna print mine without the hoop. Just grip and brace | 07:46:47 |
| someguy89 | that's a pretty cool look, I was kinda torn on it | 07:47:23 |
| someguy89 | I think I decided on the hoop just because I like the spacegun look | 07:48:13 |
| someguy89 | it serves no functional purpose | 07:48:23 |
| eyeamfresh | Yeah I wanted more if a traditional look and thought the hoop would maybe get in the way at tumes | 07:49:33 |
| eyeamfresh | I admire the space look | 07:49:43 |
| someguy89 | yeah I guess it does make it that much harder to pack away or store places | 07:50:05 |
| someguy89 | maybe the hoop keeps the grip from getting caught on things? | 07:50:18 |
| eyeamfresh | Maybe after I have a few functional pieces I'll start doing more art prints | 07:50:27 |

maybe the hoop keeps the grip from getting caught on things? Didn't think of that, but could also do the exact opposite | 07:50:51 |
| someguy89 | all of my totally printed guns are artsy shitposts, It's definitely the way to go if you don't rely on it for any functional purpose | 07:51:11 |
| eyeamfresh | Because of CA law I can't really buy what I want | 07:51:46 |
| eyeamfresh | I miss living in AZ sometimes 🤣 | 07:52:00 |
| someguy89 | Man I look at the hoops people have to jump through to become CA-compliant and get sad | 07:52:53 |
| someguy89 | thanks, Reagan | 07:53:05 |
| eyeamfresh | Yeah me too grew up with guns in MN and look at me now 😂 | 07:53:32 |
| someguy89 | I'm sure there are nice parts about it but damn does it look like a drag to have a gun hobby in that state | 07:54:12 |
| someguy89 | let's hope my state isn't next 🙃 | 07:54:25 |
