A few weeks back I managed to pick up some metal parts to fit to my old OW M2019 off the Bay. The seller said that they originated from someone on the RPF but I don't recall seeing them on here. Photo is from sellers listing.
Anyway all the holes lined up and the parts fitted quite well with only a minimum amount of cleaning up and adjustment. I also filled a little here and there to get some nice crisp edges.
The grips are bigger than the standard M2019 which I know were on the small size but everything else is spot on.
Here is a picture of it painted and assembled - The LED's are fitted but I'm still waiting for the switch and battery holder to arrive and I've had to 3D print the little elliptical Stayer safety lever (not shown here).
I already had the upgraded frame set so I've kept the metal trigger guard. It has a very nice weight to it now with none of the rattles and creaks that it had previously.
I'm currently working on a machined steel bolt for the upper receiver and when that's done I'm planning on machining a metal barrel for it.
The only plastic parts left will be the bolt handle and rear bolt cap which I'm not confident in being able to machine a replacement however I'm sure I'll pick something up eventually to fit the bill, The main cylinder frame and cylinder both of which I'm thinking tricky to replace in metal but neither is really seen so I'm not too bothered.
I'll post more as I go.
