Picked this up a little while ago and just finished it. Overall in good shape under the paint but missing the left trigger which I had to make with the help of a friend and his machine shop. Still need good pictures of the aa stock adapter and it's attachment point to the backplate so I can fabricate one of those if anyone has access to one. The paint removal revealed that a bright fire blue had been used on the retrofitted parts so that's what I went back with.

Thanks for the pics Mark! What I really need are a couple from the side so I can see how it fits onto the backplate. I am assuming it pins to the backplate through the holes previously used by the old safety?
Thanks again!
