I left the rivet alone and simply ground down the domino looking tab on the spine of the mag test fitting as I went. No special angles. Just flat and even removal of material until it slimmed down enough.

I just got an email from Canada Ammo saying that they'll be adding more short rifles on the website as they proof test them at the range.
They still have the 520 case in stock at the regular price of about $250.
It will cost you $100 more than the special but it's still a decent deal for someone wanting one of these as a first rifle.
Non nobis, Domine, non nobis, sed nomini tuo da gloriam.
I hope this is true.
I want a shorty very much.
Tax refund standing by for a shorty and ammo deal

hello everyone,
just wanted to update the review. i went to the range today and had a great time until some surplus looking guy started bashing norinco and he was all excited about how his Springfield costed him 2200. oh well stupid people are everywhere. oh by the way i had my all matching 1942 M1 Garand at the range too just to compare the two. here are the results. the ammo used is the ammo that came with the deal. steel case copper washed FMJ 143gr bullet.
Shot 100 rounds. i swapped the Chinese rear sight with an USGI rear sight as seen in the pictures. at first all my shots were off paper but after some tweaking it hit the spot. here are the results as i worked my way in to ZERO at 50 meters. the last 5 rounds made a 1/2" group as you can see. i was surprised.
and this is at 100 Meters
and this is 5 shots at 100 meters (couldnt see the bullet holes on black targets) two holes at : #10 and 5th round hit the #7 line.
I noticed a popcicle stick stappled to the ammo box in the picture also got one on my ammo box is there some reason for this?
Just finishing up accurizing make overs on a few of these new shorties. Will get to test fire over the next few days :D
Now I just need to restock my ammo LOL
