All this tooling was made on a manual vertical mill. This male stamping die is much more complicated to make then most people think. In this photo you can see the style of the female die with the cuts for the ribs to be pressed in.Īs with all stamping work to obtain the best possible product you must have a flat that is the same and you must have a method of properly locating that flat. So the only answer for Pete was to design the tooling and make a new rear section.
You can see from these pictures that there was no back section.
From our previous post you could see the absolutely dismal condition of the cut up receiver pieces that Pete had to work with. This is the second in a series of post of Pete, a friend of gun lab, building his semi-auto MP-44.
