The alteration would be inside the action.
That is why I hesitate to get out the Dremel Tool.
I would trust a good smith to do it.
If the magazine was to be altered I wouldn't be so wary.





Got it. I read and answered in a bit of a rush before, was off to work.

Now that you've explained further, I see your dilemma. My own M1910 Take Down Model puts a very slight nick in the same spot on shoulder when loaded with Hornady 3715, which are _very_ close to the original profile of DWM531. I'll be watching your further posts on this with interest.

If My (formerly my grandfather's) TD were ever to require 'surgery' it would definitely be done by a master 'surgeon' whilst I would be pacing like an expectant father nearby.

As it is I'd like to find a qualified person or shop to recondition the Gerard 'B' scope without sending it off and waiting for months or wondering what happens during shipping.

I've toyed with the idea of purchasing a 'mini lathe' and crafting lead free MS projectiles.
Problem is that by California law they would have to be on their 'approved' list for any hunting use - whatever nuisance that would take to accomplish. Even without they could be properly fitting 'plinkers' or precision target rounds.
