Yea guy's that's why I sent it out to him today,(the good guy that is) I could tell after your tutaleg that this wasn't going to be a case of just the correct size recoil lug, it just needed a good going over, I really appreciate the way you guy's converged on this and tried to help out and give sound experienced advice, will keep you posted on the outcome of what we find , Thank's again

Good Luck,
