Need a clipped and pinned Cetme lower, complete or stripped.

Like it says. I have the trigger pack, or would buy it complete if required. LMN.

Thanks, but I'm looking for the Cetme T-S-R lower.

Try APEX, they have a good collection of CETME parts

Or......clipping and pinning is really not all that tough, all you need is a dremel tool and a file and you can even attach the pins with JB weld, so welding is not necessary

thats a great tip bladeworks. i wondered if jb weld would hold up. thanks

What about the "shelf"?

I would highly recommend one of turbos fcg boxes.... they already have the shelf machined in at the exact proper location. Plus its a US part for your 922 compliance. The JB weld works just fine, I squeezed the cut off pins in the vice a little until I had to press them in the ears and put them in with a little JB weld. They are not coming out and they don't show any signs at all of being welded or soldered in. There is no stress there, they are only cosmetic. Spend your money on turbos fcg box and clip and pin the lower yourself.

Here is turbo's fcg...

OK, but now I need a plaing old T-S-R Cetme lower. Is there a thread on how to poperly clip and pin the lower, I do I just start filing 'till it slips on?

[bladeworks123]

Apex does have the Cetme lower fcg assemblies, that would give you all the parts you need. You will need to either weld, rivett or bolt the shelf inside your fcg housing. I pinned mine. Here is a link to a post over on gun boards that has alot of info inlcuding a good before and after pick of how the ears are thinned out for a clipped and pinned housing.

Post #19 in this thread gives you a diagram with dimensions for building the shelf for the FCG housing /grip frame. I pinned mine in place instead of welding, by drilling a hole all the way through, countersinking the outside of the fcg housing and peining the pins over and filing them smooth to the outside of the housing. I have also seen them drilled and tapped and put in with allen head screws from the bottom so that the height can be shimmed if needed.

Mark did one for me awhile back. His work was great. Here's a link. http://www.big50hk.com/HK%20page.htm

WOW! that is more than reasonable, I guess I missed the fact that he was doing these somehow. That would also be money well spent if you are skeptical about trying one for the first time. I would go this route if I had to do another one.

Hey!!! found this today in a box of goodies while cleaning my shop,, forgot I even had it.....If you want it, just send me $10 to cover the shipping and gas to the post office. MO or Ppal, either one is fine if you want it.
