Message: <blockquote data-quote="Corellianexports" data-source="post: 5233449" data-attributes="member: 497">I'm using a resin trigger cover.  The cover is a little too snug, so I've used an X-Acto knife and some 220 gritt to clean up the center section, inside of the cover.  I also fill in a tiny hole with some modeler's puddy:[ATTACH]1494965[/ATTACH]Done:[ATTACH]1494966[/ATTACH]Next is fitting the rear sight:[ATTACH]1494967[/ATTACH]I used a small file and a large X-acto knife to expand the indentation on the Ruger.  Typically, this area is a tight fit so that the part doesn't move around, but since this version of the Ruger is chrome coated, the area is definitely undersized.[ATTACH]1494968[/ATTACH]Next is the flash hider installation.  I was lucky enough to get the real deal from Reade Models years ago.  The actual part name is "Veron Tom-Tit Dummy Radial Engine Cylinder".  There's a thin piece of plastic about halfway, inside the part that needs to be drilled out.  Here's a bottom view of it:[ATTACH]1494969[/ATTACH]And a top view:[ATTACH]1494970[/ATTACH]I use a 5/8" drill bit to hollow out the part.  It isn't a snug fit, but some contact cement will help keep it in place one we're ready for final assembly:[ATTACH]1494971[/ATTACH]Up next, assembling the side rod parts and getting them installed.</blockquote>
