The spring has landed
At some point today the spring arrived. I was very excited but also very nervous..since I didn't want to mess anything up...
Started to assemble the slide with the "cuts"...
Beautiful, unmolested spring...
Rear sight in place...(is easy once BMCM explains you HOW to do this
). The white stuff on the slide is some residue from the masking tape...yes I almost had a heart attack...
safety plunger installed...
safety is the "right" color...
safety installed = Guzzi happy
ready to install front sight. Everything degreased, a tiny drop of blue loctite applied...
sight went on without any issues...
looks ok...
like the sight picture
provisional barrel installed...(this one is narrow hood, need a wide hood, but will arrive tomorrow)...love the shinny guide rod.
and then...
...they were 2 (Guzzi really happy now
)
hope you like them...
better pictures later on this week (hopefully tomorrow)...also detailed cost breakdown and a range report (when I find some ammo)...
more to come...
