Battlement Fab's style radius arms
Does anyone have the radius arms sold by Battlement Fab? I heard they were pretty good and I'd like to build some.
Of course I know the story on BF and Clint, and Nate who handled the decommissioning of BF is leaving GJ, so I don't know if I could get an idea on how to make them from him.
Any ideas?

Re: Battlement Fab's style radius arms
I have a set. You're welcome to come take a look if you ever get out this way. I'm also happy to measure, photograph, etc. I think I've got the only set in the Denver area, at least on an EB.

Re: Battlement Fab's style radius arms
Justin, that would be awesome!
I'll be Denver for the Bronco game on Monday the 28th, I'm arriving that weekend. Id love to come over and take measurements and pictures.
Would that weekend work?

Re: Battlement Fab's style radius arms
We can definitely set a time. I'm taking a couple of days off that week, so there's good availability. As you firm up your plans let's coordinate.

Re: Battlement Fab's style radius arms
I think most the pieces can be ordered from Ballistic fab or poly performance. The DOM you can source locally somewhere.

I think he's referencing the fabricated square arms with internal gussets that Clint was making. Not much DOM in those.

Re: Battlement Fab's style radius arms
I intend to build my new radius arms and would like to see a few aftermarket ones before I start. The Battlement ones had a good reputation.

Re: Battlement Fab's style radius arms
Come look at mine and we can talk design. I know how I'd do mine if I hadn't scored these ones.

Re: Battlement Fab's style radius arms
Not these?
I guess I didn't realize there were other sets out there.

I'd forgotten he did that style too.
