![]() The recoil should never be transmitted via the tang screws or the tangs themselves. Relieving things a bit can sometimes postpone the spitting. Compression is almost inevitable and spitting will likely follow. ![]() ![]() They are quite common as the LC has a very small area which actually contacts the rear of the action and thus conducts the recoil impulse to the butt plate. Another note is that be very careful of cracks in the butt stock. When the trigger plate installation is finished the top lever is pushed to the right freeing the small wire which is then carefully removed. When the lock is installed the tiny notch is completely covered. The butt stock is off course installed before the trigger plate and to do that and allow the trigger plates easy installeation a tiny notch is cut in the face of the butt stocks action inlet near the center of the left lock inletting. This will keep the spring from contacting the top lever spring cam and the top levers stem will be fairly loose.and easily fitted into the hole in the trigger plate. This is inserted into the recess for the spring with the lever pressed to the right and held there while the lever is released. Using a msall section of coat hanger sized wire bend a 90 degree bend that creates a small leg on one end. This will make installing the trigger plate (#54) difficult as the stems bottom pivot won't want to enter it's hole in the trigger plate. If you look at the drawing the 'V' spring that powers the top lever and the bolt(#24) will push the top lever (#9) very hard to the side. The LC can be a bit difficult to re-assemble but it's easy with a little trick. The butt stock shows only a few light handling marks with small cracks in the butt. ![]() I've put a link to an exploded diagram below.
