Sniper,
The hardened 4140 dovetail piece as well as the aluminum adapter plate are pretty much done. I still need to make 4 custom .120" locater pins and press them into the adapter plate and I also need to blacken the aluminum (will have to wait till Monday as the alumablack is still at work). I put it on (minus the pins) just to test fit and it looks pretty decent.
Hope these pics will tide you over until I can ship it out next week.
Aluminum bar stock and a piece of 4140 prehard.
After removing your rear sight and doing some measuring and sketching...time to start cutting the dovetail piece.
Fits nice and snug
Next the aluminum is sized up and the holes centerdrilled.
Drilling done.... still need to put a radius on the ends of the aluminum (will have to take to work to do on CNC mill) and tap holes.
Time for a test fitting.... Perfect!
