Started conversion and have question

[jamis 0]

I got all my Tromix conversion parts in from MAA this week and I noticed the rear receiver plate holes are off set a bit, do the holes go towards the bottom or top ?

Can some one also tell me the correct angle the rear of the receiver needs to be cut before welding on the plate?

 

Thanks for the cool products

If you're using Krebs sights or stock sights/rib, the holes need to be closest to the bottom. If you're using an optic or HK sights, the holes need to be near the top. Recut the angle 2-3 degrees downward, so the stock does not stick upward off the back of the receiver.
