Unfortunatelly we found that the carriage legs were cut probably after disposal by the army and then somebody welded them back together again, not very precisely though. Each leg had different angle and did not fit into the rear lock properly.
So we decided to cut both legs again and weld back accurately. Quite a lot of rust came out and some places underneath had to be fixed up. It all came back together very well and we could start putting the gun back together.
