I noticed some very small stress cracks in the trigger plate after banana bending to fit the stock~ so I toted it to a my trusted collision center to weld a small bead on each side...he did goodt! then a few minutes on the dewalt sander, and then some filing~ then a hour or so of inletting~ almost there....needs tweeking on the curve, and now to start inletting the guts of the lock... :hmm: then that tweeking of the geometry of both triggers working right....now where did tomtom go?...he's the expert on fitting set triggers! |

A dewalt sander??? I thought you were strictly a file and chisel guy! Well, as long as your stinky shop foreman lets you get away with it! Seriously - great work!! SW |

castings often have imperfections - generally the flawed ones get recycled , as to the chores ahead of you - i can only say your a better man than me with a chisel |
