Hi gents,
Decided to update my mk2 Rapid fac with a Sabre Tactical HM1000x chassis. I had problems getting proper cheek weld since i fitted the Zulus so this has sorted that. I love the tactical look!

Yep, they do suit the tac look,
I almost bought a sabre chassis but was lucky enough to find a 3D printed half chassis on the bay,
& then decided to machine a second from a block of Delrin, but the sabre under rail looks much cooler.

Think they are on back order in most  UK suppliers. Hard to get unless someone has a spare handy.

You are correct, ive tried everywhere with no results, step son is of to Vegas for the F1 ill
ask if he can get me one out there,
Cheers

DAVYW1

Yes gunner, that may be the best option if you want it anytime soon. Just so you are aware the chassis needs a bit of machining to make a mk2 block fit correctly.
