MEASURING TAPE???

Post by Daskraut »

:shock: I can not believe that nobody out there can measure there receiver for this info starved , stone mallet wielding wanna-be gunsmith!. Surely one of you has an uncut receiver?. I should be welding this week and REALLY need this dimension. Hell, just send your welded dimension and I will average them out!.

Jason, is that dimension per my crude picture?. Tom, your dimension said "left of the trunion"....meaning you put a ruler from the end of the booster threads to the actual installed trunnion?. Feel free to draw a crude pic or mod one as I did. I will eventually draw up a print for this when all dims are confirmed.

daskraut, I measured from the very end of the reciever (end of the threads) to the front of the trunion 'window'.

I did not remove the trunion but I could see the front of the hole in the reciever and that is where I measured from.
