Just finished this up for a TT member. I'll get to shoot it soon and ship it back, testing is just a formality since it functions fine in the shop.Image

Nice looking job Greg. Fabricating parts like that cocking lever have to be very tedious at best, requiring numerous hours to complete. Cutting, heating, and bending metal can be difficilt work. Makes me want to try it on my TOZ. Thanks for the pictures.

Where did you get the new grip?

Very nice looking job.

I was going to try it on my own TOZ so I could cut the grip frame down and lose some weight, but there is something hanging me up. When I first got the TOZ, I tried to retap the frame on the left side for the bottom grip screw. I burned up a drill bit and concluded that the frame is hardened. Is the cocking lever also likely to be hard? Did you have to draw it back to tap it for the new lever?

Thanks

Roger

I use all carbide, I don't think it was hard though.
