[MRCG] GRC-9 and BC-1306

[tom horsfall]

I am pretty sure the material on the GRC-9 grilles is hard drawn round aluminum stock.   Without some jigs it is going to be a bitch bending that stuff, if  you can find it.    Someone should go into production on those.    I second the motion on the M-38A-1 pulling the MRC-56 around at SLO.
