    Just a small point on this Guts. Your Trigger Mech Housing axis screw is 180 Degrees out of kilter. It SHOULD be in the opposite way round to what it is in your photograph! I know it's Pedantic, But it's an Armourers eye for detail!
    In Brit Military Service, in the condition it is in now. It was a sure sign of 'Illegal Stripping'. That is to say, the 'User' it was issued to, had stripped it down further then he was permitted to in Service.

    IE: If they were not Armourer trained, there was the possibility of: Losing small componants, Incorrect assembly with the potential for a lethal result to some unfortunate! Or 'Tampering' with the internal mech in an extremely stupid move to get the rilfe to full-auto! (Uncontrolable continuous Full-Auto firing with damaging/lethal Results!) I am VERY confident that Peter & Skippy have been involved like myself. In sorting this 'Misdemeanor' MANY Times in service!..........
