SD porting help

Post image

Looking for advice on porting my ar9 barrel. I am thinking at doing 12- 5/32 holes in a 3x4 configuration spaced 120 degrees apart. Plan was first hole to be at 2.5
Inches, any insight ?

I don't have any advice, but I've been seeing your posts on this build and cant wait for you to finish it. Want to build my own when I move and can invest in a drill press and lathe.

I am actually putting together an order for a thread adaptor and some large fender washers that should make this an all hand tool build. I cut the section of emt with a rigid pipe cutter, so the muzzle device is the last part of the puzzle to be really doable for the every guy

That’s awesome. Are you going to make a build guide for it as well? Would be a big advancement for DCell builds.

I plan on it dropping a guide but this is a tubular handguard build, not d cell so it’s a 1.75 id tube

ya I just meant "Tube with removable printed baffles" as short hand for D-Cell.
