metal fabricator needed!!!

Postby tommyboy » Fri Jan 15, 2010 1:05 am

I am looking for anyone who is cabable of doing metal fabrication work, or know someone or somewhere I can get some metal fab work done.
this is what I need. one of the stock extending "arms" (not sure if that is the correct term, but I think i clearly states what I am talking about.) on my MP7 broke. it broke due to something I was trying to attempt, but didnt quite succeed at.
the picture below shows the MP7 with the stock fully extended out. now the piece I need 'fabricated' is that metal rod type arm that extends from the reciever of the MP7 to the butt-plate. If you are unfamilar with the MP7, this is the exact same type used on MP5's and similar H&K weapons. Just the one for the MP7 is smaller in size then that of the MP5's or I would have tried to make it out of an MP5 'stock arm
now i have half of the original 'arm' still, the other broken half has since dissapeared. But I also still have the other sides fully intact arm which can be used as a template. All I really need is a piece of metal cut to the right length, and thickness. all the more detailed cuts in the stock arm i able to do on my own. I am sure most metal fab shops would have a piece of scrap metal around that would fit the need of what I am looking for. the rough deminsions of the stock arm are:
about 1ft (12inches) in total length x 11mm hieght x 6mm thick
if anyone know where i can get one of these made for me, please let me know who and where. it would be greatly apprecieated.
thank you,
Tommy

If you think you could make it out of a bar of the not proper dimensions, You can buy aluminum in a 0.25" x 0.5" rectangular bar for $3 ish (12" length). 6mm is ~.236 inches, and 11mm is ~.433 inches. This is pretty close to your final dimensions:
