OK. I looked at the print for the receiver; it shows the chamber hood to base (other side) as 22.3mm = .877"...I don't know enough German to find the tolerance for that measurement...(There seems to be more than one tolerance on this part)...

But I miked my 5 receivers, and got these measurements...

comm, 86434: "A"--.872"; "B"--0.966"
1937, 3649: "A"--.885; "B"--.976" [S/42]
comm, 6782n: "A"--.878"; "B"--.972"
Finn?, 77z: "A"--.873"; "B"--.965"
1917, 8514: "A"--.874"; "B"--.970"

This only shows that this measurement is probably not the best to use for comparison...Although it is the easiest to measure...
