I have an old Sako TRG-S/M995 that when I bought it was in dire need of a new barrel. It became a "project" since I wasn't in need of another to use right away (I have a few others).

Finally settled on a 26" Krieger Remington Varmint 1:7 280AI, but since Covid-19 severely delayed shipping (9 months now still waiting) thoughts about a chassis for this heavy hunter/target/long range arose.

Then i found this used TRG42 stock...

And now the request:

The 42 stock does not have a trigger housing/mag catch so I need to manufacture one. Could you please provide me with measurements for A-M in the picture below?

It just now hit me everything on this is in metric. It’s 17.5mm x 7.3mm. The top box is 5.4mm long. It’s 20mm thick and flared to 25mm at the mag release area
Some of those are fairly accurate I'm sure. :)(y) At least I'm getting closer. On a site where people usually are measuring in 1/1000", I was hoping for a bit more precision. But hey, not everyone is a machinist.

(If you are planning to start hand loading, you will need a Vernier gauge (callipers) and learn how to use them).

Thank you.
