You have to either show extensive contribution to the AR section here, or complete an AR build that is documented here on FTF.

BTW, how do you like that grip? How does it compare to the Ergo grips?
Its made of a hard polymer and not over molded rubber like the ERGO but it feels great in the hand.

That's a good looking stick. I am going to bet she shoots like a dream once you find the right load for her.

Looking forward to your range report.
