Randy send me a PM with a picture of the top of your receiver , ill see what I can model. I tested the current state with a different claw mount and it all fits snug.
Just so I can get a better understanding of what youre after
I was about to say the same thing.. the whole thing looks slick as fk.
It was a bit hard to tell how deep into the cavity that your piece was sitting. But I wasn’t sure if your piece would sit any lower if you sanded down the rails to make the receiver more rounded. But if it’s sitting in the cavity on top of the receiver and not the rail, then that’s my answer!
I’m excited for this piece! Let us know when you have some for sale .... I’m in for sure!
Here’s a pic I took out in the woods the other day ...
This is really nice looking
Thanks! It’s still a work in progress.
My front sight hood is up on tinkercad:

If anyone wants this printed and mailed, I can send you 1 of them in black PETG (no finishing/sanding/etc ) for 7$ shipped. I will also put a second one in there for free should one of these break in the mailing process. So 1 is 7$ shipped, and you get 1 for free
Black PETG 1.75mm is mostly unavailable on amazon, and what is available is much more expensive than 'normal'. (Covid-19 related i think)
My WTS ad is in the rimfire / parts section of the forums.

That looks pretty good actually. Nice work!
I’m with Randy on this one. Instead of the piece being rounded on top, I think it would look better if it was level (flush) with the top rail, and not rounded.
Impressive work so far.
You guys have all inspired me to modify my GSG16 and possibly buy another to customize it as well. Like, wow! Genius, engineering! If anyone is selling a conversion kit or 3D printed stuff, send me a PM. I have to make up for quite a few AR's that just got banned. Who voted for that guy anyways???? Lol!
