Hello,
For those who have a 3D printer (I don't have one), do you think it's strong enough (and useful) this kind of hand guard?
Thanks in advance

The few items that I have seen by a quality production printer would be a good choice. The price is a little high, for most people. ......:thumbup:

Just be sure it is printed out of PETG or better. PLA will not work. This is an easy print. You should be able to find any hobbyist printer in your area who will make them for you. I would charge around $20 (US) a piece to print them. You should be able to find similar in your area.

Well if you DON'T have one ..... this is going to a VERY, VERY expensive hand-guard .... Here in the U.S., a lot of folks are just using Brush-guards from Off-road Mtc's or Snow-mobiles ..... good luck ..... Mike :thumbup:
