How do I modify an early CSA vz58’s to install magazine adaptor

I have one of the first run of csa vz58 that will not accept the mag well adaptor without modification. Does anyone have the instructions for the modification needed?

“Sa vz. 58 Sporter Rifles with serial numbers 5600008C through 5600089C only if the receiver of those firearms is modified.“

That is something I had a question about also. There is a thread around showing the differences in the receivers but I was never really sure what had to be done. I just went and bought the adaptor and would figure it out as I have a milling machine in my garage. Turns out I had to do nothing. Mine fit just fine.
 
I was considering just buying one and seeing what it took to make it fit. I have had mixed luck with that way of doing things in the past though.

What adapter did you pick up?
 
OK...I found it. Post #24

The top receiver in the pic has the extra material out in front of the trigger guard, between the mag release an the bolt hold open, which would have to be removed. The lower 2 have the material removed. Its the section about 3mm x 7mm x 10mm deep. From what I can tell on mine it looks like the adaptor would fit but the rear of the mags would hit preventing them from being installed. Very minor machining.
