About how long are the screws? I would have used at least 6 if I were you, but it doesn't really matter. I think I'll build mine this weekend with reedfe.

Sounds good. I think I'll have my whole gun done this weekend, but I'm having second thoughts as to even build one or not.

I know but it will be expensive. I really want tone, and I'll probably build the 2" one.

Without the coolness. Add the chamber, advanced piston, paint, pilot setup (20 bucks alone) and the pipe costs its like 70 or 80 bucks.
