Don't want to nit pick but more on an Engineering point (I,d love to say on an Armourer's point also, but thats just a matter of time) looking at AR44's pic in post #20, the front pad screws don't look like they were finished flush, could be just the pic etc ? can't imagine it leaving H&H like that or an Armourer's bench either, as most similar views of T's show the screws flush and in most cases hardly visible.
