What are the details of the geometry at the front of the frame relative to the position of the locking lever and the receiver lug?

If this ends setting the receiver too far back with reference to the place where the toggle contacts the receiver ears the timing of the action could be changed. it's subtle, but also critical to proper function.

The only difference is in the amount of metal "ahead" of the take down lever; everything else is the same, well except the shape of the curve from the front to the trigger guard.
