Measurement from recuperator hole to buttstock?

Post by joew »

I have a set of BRP halves, the only place I have to go from to measure is the forward recuperator hole. Would one of you guys be so kind as to give me the measurement from the rear wall of the forward recuperator hole to the end of the receiver so I can start cutting?
Thanks,
Joe

I will have a play about later today and see if I can get the measurement for you. Not doing it now as it is 1AM and the other half will make shouty noises at me if I start taking guns apart now. I don't see the problem myself.

Just to make sure we are all measuring the same points here is a pic of what I measured. I have left the image large so you can zoom in.
