Peg, have you solved the magazine well alignment problem? If not, it might be necessary to get the frame to someone with the correct mandrel to form it back into shape.

If you chase out the threads, be sure to use the right tap. These are English Whitworth threads. They have a different pitch angle (55 degrees) when compared with metric and SAE threads.
