Most calipers are not too good for close readings and the plastic ones I have seen are little better than a yard stick.
I didn't suggest that it wasn't possible, I was merely noting that the dimensions you're working with are very small. Clearly you have the tools and the skills, so good luck with your issue. Hope you resolve it to your satisfaction. I do believe that S&W is closed for their summer shut down.
