Gunsmithing Spr bottom metal pic

[Geno C.]

So color me retarded! About six month ago I took my spr completely apart for bedding and painting the stock. Between work, and a new baby, it has taken me this long to put it all back together. For the life of me I can't seems to figure out how to get the latch and spring back in the bottom metal correctly. If someone has a picture of the bottom metal removed so I can see how it goes back together, I would much appreciate seeing it. I have looked all ove for an exploded diagram but have come up empty and my book of of diagrams doesn't have the spr or variant in it. Thanks.

Which bottom metal do you have TBM or DBM?

Dbm. Thanks, I figured it out. It just did't seem right to have part of the spring sticking out like it does

Right. As you probably see, that leg assists the magazine out of the rifle.

Yeah, it makes sense after you get it put together that way. Trying to get my mind to remember it going that way was a different story all together.
