Was the work worth it? Not sure, but I didn’t have another option. It’s texture is pretty rough, as you would expect from a 3D printed product. Good thing it’s hidden, because this lug doesn’t have a “finish” per se. Took about 90 minutes total grinding/testing/repeat to make it work well. The other problem is that the top part of the lug’s “T” shape was too deep for the bayonet’s “socket” to fit. Part of the problem is that the part is very rough as delivered, so the bayonet didn’t slide well at all onto the lug. Had to be sure to to remove too much material between tests. However, the actual bayonet mounting lug required a significant amount of very careful Dremel tool and Emery cloth sanding/grinding to get the bayonet to actually fit properly. Happily, they provided a new one at no cost which was pretty much on spec for mounting. The first part they deliveredwasn’t actually round per my 10mm specification so there was a big gap between the upper and lower halves when mounted on the barrel.
