Default Bolts (machine screws ?)

Brian Asbury has a lot of these 3/8" BSF flat head slotted screws.

Makes it easy to cut them off when they won't move

Radek, you are on the right track. Do you have the mantlet? (the bit that folds up)
If you have it, I would carefully position the pivot screw hole on the other side of the gun slot, first. Then you can plot the path of the slot.
