    Thank you Jim...after this week I hope to work toward finally completing the project. I have a local friend that bought a repro heat shield and attachment for his M12 conversion from the same individual I immediately sent my order back to....it was so ugly. His lug is hand filed (rather than machined) the same as mine was and pretty crude in my opinion but he's satisfied with it, I guess.
    Anyway, I'll check back in on occasion with any further.
