OP texasmac Campfire Member T Joined: Jan 2013 Posts: 181 Central Texas	For the many of you that are not gunsmiths or machinists, I just updated an article on measuring dovetail slot dimensions. It discusses four methods to determine the dovetail dimension, some more accurate and easier than others. The link to the article is http://www.texas-mac.com/Measuring_Dovetail_Slot_Dimensions.html Wayne Last edited by texasmac; 09/05/16. NRA & TSRA Lifetime member. NSSF member.
