Kkarmical, your pic above shows your OEM lever is still bent.... I straightened mine out and it was not exact. The Blizzard lever was a tad longer between the post holes.
That was why I needed to drill that back pivot hole. Is there enough meat to drill it up one more size like 13/64" ?
When I put the lever on before drilling, I was only able to close the lever flush with a bit of force. When I did, the probe's brass section came out if the breech about 3/16" into the mag well. It would work, but I was afraid the pressure on the spring would cause fatigue. After drilling the back pivot hole, the brass section is flush or a fingernails width out. The gun cycles fine, the mags rotate smooth, and the gun seems more consistent.
Hopefully you can figure how to get it drilled to work the probe like that.
Looks like Silentmatt is about to finish his levers.....might be prudent to get his.
Good luck guys......
