I noticed on mine that the black finish comes off pretty easily. As Diesel stated it does a good job moderating the report, but I am also beginning to be concerned about long term quality.
If it ends up not lasting give Anthony storey a call he made my ldc for my sumatra and did one *(&^ of a job the ldc is built like a tank and works very effectively on my sumatra
darn shame norman. I had been eying his LDC while I decide if I wanted to risk ordering one and hoping it got past customs ..
im also making ldc's while I have down time at work...1/2 20 not trying to market them just giving me some thing to do at work. very well made with high precision using lathe and CNC. I did a lot of research on this and works very very well.
