Recommended Posts

hey guys i dont have a drill press so i was hoping anyone in the socal area could help me out. What other methods did you guys use to install it if you did not have a drill press available? anyone know of a gunsmith that will do it for not so much change or anyone in my area willing to lend a hand?

+1 for the hand drill method, in case you don't have a drill press. That's what I did. Just make sure you go straight and slow. Back the tap out often, to get the metal chips out of the bit. If starts to bind up, back it out. If you keep going, your tap will break off in the hole :ded: .

 

Sloooooooooow and straight.

1) insert your bullet guide

2) mark the spot on the trunnion where the hole in the bullet guide is

3) center punch the mark

4) drill the hole

5) tap the hole

6) attach bullet guide with screw

7) PROFIT
