Is that welded on or threaded in with some sort of sealant applied?

Just epoxy, you can see it gooping out from under the button.

It's refreshing to see such a unique left-handed M40A1 style build, thank you for posting it! Even though it's obviously not clone correct, it's still a very unique and respectful build that captures the spirit of the M40A1 while making it useful for lefties. I like this a lot, it's good to change things up at times and just have fun with a build.

Thank you! I tried to have it as clone correct as possible with the exception of being left handed. It was definitely a fun project! Although the scope and mount were a pain. The scope mount is from TBA. Seems to be holding up just fine.
