What is the rationale for the underside being polished (I assume you mean filed/sanded)??? I would think that if the trigger worked OK that 'polishing' the topside, where the takedown lever rubs, would be the correct area to 'polish' (in fact that was my intention). What am I missing here???
'Polishing' the underside would, it seems to me, bring the entire sideplate assembly closer to the frame. May require filing the notch for the frame, deepening the trigger shaft relief, etc.
Each sideplate does not have
all the problem areas mentioned. One has a bent front tang, another two have thick rear tabs, one has the thick front tang. Of these, the one with the thick front tang seems easiest to 'fix'.
Is it safe to bend the front tang??? Will it bend or break??? If the front tang is too short what does that do???
