Thanks once again for the suport M1014!
The shroud just came in today and it's the metal kind...I'm having second thoughts on installing it since I feel (my personal opinion) that the plastic will work better (less stress on the brral finish) not to mention light weight.
By the way, were can i get those plastic barrel shrouds and the barrel clamps you mentioned and lastly, how much are we looking at? Sorry for all the questions...just wanna do this right.
Thanks again in advance for the input.
