Looking to get this part printed… but I have zero clue how to go about finding someone to do this.

I also found this which appears to be an adaptation of the original from Booligan, but the complete version from Booligan looks better to my eye.

Any input appreciated.

I have zip file with all the info but literally have no idea of how I find someone to print this thing or what it should cost.

Way out of my lane here.

Where are you located at? I think there are places online that will do it. Thingiverse.com would be a good place to start too. Also I've seen people that do 3d printing locally through Facebook marketplace too.

When I get home I will look at the file and if it's nothing too big I may be able to do it.

If other options don't pan out, you can try here:

The parts aren't complicated, and he's apparently using PLA material, which is common and less challenging than using nylon or similar, so you've got a better chance of finding someone to do it. Be aware that, unlike an injected molded part, there will be rough surfaces from support material that needs to be removed and cleaned up. It looks like they're all internal to the assembly except for the angled bit under the sling slot. Sand paper will smooth it out well enough.

All slid on well. Just the tiniest bit of front to back play on the front piece. Thinking I can tighten it up between the two if needed.
