Do you know of anyone that does carrier modifications for LL use?

I had a guy out of state, but we moved.  I do not want to send my LL for fitment.  I do not want to send a copy of my tax stamp, but I will if that is absolutely required.   I do not mind sending in a cut carrier to pattern off of.

Recommendations?

Why not just get a low shelf lower?

The OP isn’t asking about modifying the lower to accommodate the LL, he is talking about machining the back of the bolt carrier so the timing is correct when it trips.

Has nothing to do with the lower shelf…
I tried that whole cancer thing. It wasn't for me. Good Riddance.

He picked up M60joes work after Herb retired. Gary lists "Milling BCG to SP1 configuration" as one of his services.

You're not the board darling you think you are.

I have one that worked for years that I did with a file and a dremel. I had Mike Klos make me one later and M60 Joe did one in 9mm.
It just has to be the right spec for your combination of parts. It doesn’t need to be pretty.
I don't know how this works, but I nominate Joker and Fluffy for arfcom sainthood.

I absolutely know you are correct, I also want it to look pretty.   I may even get it coated.

In addition to milling the bolt you should send your receiver to have the fcg pocket milled back. It has to be clearanced so you don’t smash the LL into the receiver.
