Would anyone know what the relative location would be between the rear face of the firing pin in its forward-most position and the front face of the trigger well?  

I am in the process of designing a new trigger for AR10s and AR15s and would like to know what the clearance is between these two surfaces in a functioning rifle.  I have been unsuccessful at finding any assembly drawings, particularly those with dimensions that show the positional relationship between the two surfaces.

Would anyone here know this clearance, or where I might find it?  The distance from the front pin to the firing pin face would also do the job, if perchance anyone would have that.

Thanks in advance.

ETA: I meant TRIGGER well and not the mag well.  DUH.

From the center of the hammer pin to the firing pin in its forward most position is 0.410" + a few thousandths, possibly as high as .010" (there is quite a tolerance stack up there, I don't have time to accurately add it up, besides it's not that critical).

You can find the drawing for the lower and get the relative distance between the rest of the parts.
