Bren L4 / .308 build

[cal50]

Cutting back mag well weld material and L4 magazine adapter now fits again. Tested a few L1A1 20's and all 12 of my L4 mags and they all fit VERY nice.
I think I am close to being too tight / too much weld shrink but mags literally fit perfect. Easy in , out and no wobble.

Inserting bolt its short of fully locking. I am tighter than the nominal print dimension and it moved the locking shoulder closer to the frame bolt stops.
I am going to do a cast of the locking shoulder space with it removed and measure it to the L4 locking shoulder overall length.

I need it to lock and have some space between the frame stops and bolt. After I get this dimension set I can headspace the barrel.


When it fits it makes me smile~





When the magazine fits and locks in I really smile~
