Where did you remove the metal from?
How well do the screws fit now?
And where did your front sight go?

All five screw holes were out of alignment. The metal was removed from the screw holes. I have a lot of experience in this sort of thing. It would be easy to remove too much metal and leave the screws with no ledge to tighten against. I would not recommend doing this if you are not experienced. The screws fit perfectly now. My old eyes can no longer focus on sights such as they were. I am in the process of making some sights I can see. You can tap the front blade off with a hammer. If you are interested in modifying sights make sure you do not remove any metal from the top of an aluminum receiver - it might weaken enough to crack.

I'm not a fan of the birds head grip, but I gotta admit -- that looks pretty cool. :goodjob:
