Ok ... jeez, thanks pongto, that explains it .... the forward holes on the finger guard where I used clips ... had square holes pre-punched in the repop support underneath the top layer of metal ... I was wondering why the holes where square ... obviously they were meant to be used with the square nut-cert press in nuts, or weld nuts.
I was baffled because I did not remember the finger guard using two different types of screws. So I can pull out the clips I installed and put in 5/16-18 rivet nuts. The clips also did not fit the way they should have.
Now I have to change my how-to thread ... as I put the wrong information in there.
Next question ... what size/type were the screws that went through the finger guard into the top of the plastic shroud?
