A few years ago I found a drawing shoing the milling size and depth for an 80%. Does anyone know of one similar for the M16 cut?

Really only need to verify depth of first shelf below takedown pin.

The drawing posted is a 16 cut lower you have to look at the bottom grayed section diagram to see the depths. A 16 pocket cuts pocket back depth back to the 5.916 and then over at the back like your drawing shows except the top .127 selector detent side pocket depth cut stops where your drawing shows to at 5.127 then the cut raises up to where the cut over the selector detent area is only .455 deep back to the 5.916. damn, i missed the numbers differences. thanks. my apologies Dex223 |
