How 'bout a pic showing where I measured???

"A" is the measurements in post # 12 above...

"B" are these measurements, taken from the barrel hood to the bottom of the receiver lug...

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 is a better area of measurement; I believe the lug is held to higher tolerances than that area under the hood...

...And the "B" variance from least to most is only .011"...
