Go big or go home....

I have wanted a M2HB for my M114. So I have started building one.

Ordered side plates from kmp. A little unhappy they didn't sandblast one of them. But I've taken care of it.

Next some work to the internals. The buffer and locking frame.

Got the bolt machined to use the kmp sear.

Feed pawls had some left over rivets on them, so I drilled them off.

And now I'm working on the beveled cuts to the side plates for the charging handle.

I should be ready to start test fitting the plates tomorrow. Then drilling and countersinking the rivet holes.
 
A little more update.

Mocked up for drilling.

Still need to counterbore the other plate. But I should be riveting it together this week.
