onward and upward............had to enlarge the groove for the trigger arm...and also started to make 2 spaces for the guide for the firing pin..........i wont go into detail why...but as a result of the widened trigger catch the groove is now wider than the body.......i will let you figure out the rest......

im off out now for the first time in 4 days to do the electric key and get some milk.......

will do some more tomorrow....

 

keep safe

Your endeavours are to be applauded but yes sometimes you think why oh why did I spend all that time doing that. Anyway I also have a trial cam if you need to borrow one. Not sure where you are but I am in diss.

well thats that....set it up and it made a lovely "BANG".......which will make the perpertrator jump out of his skin and will wake me up (and my next door neighbors)

im finishing this thread here for the simple reason ....if i modify this alarm mine and take pics of it and it working during the night......i could well be havin the ole plod knocking on the door arresting me under the terroism act.....and i dont want any foreign power or terroist copuing my design and frightening old ladys by napalming their drawers...

all the best 

 

keep safe
