I should have been more clear. I am building a TNW based reweld semi. Where the trip is installed in the receiver it hits where the old spring mount for the sear is. Does this need to be cut out and raised? The half moon looking piece on the trip doesnt look like it can possibly hit the sear on the bolt? I am looking for more detail on these aspects of the build.

Here is the progress thus far:

I had to dremel a small amount off so the the half moon part would make contact. I also put a bead of weld on the sear ramp to raise it and make it a full ramp as opposed to the abrupt edge that they have on there now. I think I have a thread on it with pix, here or and weapons guild
