Hey guys. I tore down my m92 for cerakote and decided I wanted a rail on my top cover. So I looked for a round bottom steel rail to weld onto it but I couldn't find one. So I found this aluminum one with steel set screws and drilled ad tapped for the screws. But I don't trust them in the sheet metal. So I welded the screws in place from the underside.

What do y'all think?

Looks pretty good, but why oh, why did you remove the rear sight? Getting a replacement top cover is a difficult task for an M92. It's not like getting a standard dust cover.

Cool, have you tried zeroing it? Also for future reference I believe a rail from a Ruger MK pistol would have the curve you're looking for

I didn't trust the sheet metal for threads. So I weled a nut on the trunion
