Good luck with your builds, here’s some pictures of the feed work done on one of the original rifles, a 1942 August Schüler. The rails are opened, ramp is contoured and blended, rear bridge is milled back, the back end of mag box is completely cut out and widened appropriately, follower face widened etc.

Only a handful of detail pictures in another thread, post 86, I still haven’t taken more. The aluminum bottom metal sounds intriguing, I haven’t seen aluminum from H&H that I can recall. I’ve often thought it would be neat to mimic the aluminum Walter Röll bottom metal.

Probably by special request, these days, given the wide availability of factory rifles chambered for belted cartridges. I imagine that H&H would have done it as an indent order.
