So, I'm trying to attach a Picatinny rail adapter to a dovetail rail,

this one...requires a frippin' 1/16" allen key, the smallest I've
encountered in my lifetime and of course I don't have *that* one. Any
thoughtful vendor would include the key in the parts bag...most vendors
seem to do that...but not this one. Grrrrrr.


Found one...and only one...at a local hardware store. 50 cents retail.
Got the rail adapter on, even though I could barely see the damned allen
screws...used the blue loctite...so the rifle is spending the night in
the vise.

Managed to not drop any of the bitty parts on the floor...a first for
me.




Blue locktite. That stuff takes 96 hours to cure. Don't jiggle the piece
while it sets up. Oh, and make sure you don't get any on the blueing or
you'll be sorry later on.
