Since I'm at a standstill on the M2HB project until the extractor cam comes in. I spent the day making up the receiver parts needed for these.
The tube needs a 37mm thread. Unfortunately my lathe doesn't turn metric threads. But a 20tpi thread worked after several passes.
Next I prepped the left over receiver parts.
Next I used the cap to figure out where to mill the flats.
Opening up the tube for the trigger and charging handle.
I put it back in the lathe to figure out where the sight needed to end up on top. I just scored a line to know where to mill the sight hole.
