I'm going to start my yugo .308 project next week. I will be visiting my parents next week and will have access to a complete machine shop (lathes, mills, migs, tigs, all the good stuff). Before I get started I have a couple of questions.
First, when drilling and tapping the scope bases, do you drill all the way through the front receiver ring? I have seen some guys suggest that you don't go all the way, while others say that you should punch it through. I'm aware that I don't want to hit the lug seat.
Second, does anyone have a couple pictures of one of the Brownells bolt handles during the process of welding it on? I would like to see at what angle you cut the old handle off and the angle of the new handle when attached.
Thanks,
Hank
