Well, naturally it would be nice to see a photo of the top of the slide to see if it is locked up nice.

No way to get a photo up the empty magazine opening.

I have a medical scope for looking in ears that I got when my kids were young and those scopes were cheap. I need to see if I can photograph with it usning modern digital camera?

My wild guess is that the cheapest part to remove (drill) is the back plate. I have no idea how they would gain access to the front half (to move recoil spring guide rod around?).

Someone really good with that model will jump in soon.

It would be fun to see a photo taken up the empty handle.
