I will take you up on that. The welder I frequent has his own ideas on how a job should be done despite my explicit instructions. He tries to make his welds exactly to size, even when I instruct him to make them oversize and I will machine them to my satisfaction.

I have a piece of .035" steel sheet, I'll try to make it to size and contact cement it to the lug. I noticed the takedown lever is loose in its hole, but I stuck a shim in front of it to restrict movement and it had no effect on the barrel extension...er...extension...
