you want the bolt blocker welded in place not riveted, not welded to a piece riveted in place.
Weld the bracket to the reciever as well.

There is no need to extend the receiver, plenty of rewelded guns running the standard length. 2) Yes, But the ejection port can't be moved back as well. You would need to extend the buffer nos...

Re: wise lite semi auto inch longer?
Wiselite would be the only one to answer definitively why they picked 1" longer for their receiver. My speculation is ... That was as long as they could make the receiver and still get it to fit the ground tripod. Plus if they'd made it 3" longer it would have been MUCH more noticeable and made the ...

Force matched?
Don't remember ever seeing a serial number stamped on any feed trays.

Re: Rail length
file front of rail. Small gap between cam piece and rail is preferable to butt-tight.

Re: Mg42 Buttstocks
any buffer should fit any reciever.
buffer & stock combos fit along production lines german to german - yugo to yugo.
A mismatched combo will fit togther poorly but should work for short term, testing, or a hoard of zombies emergency

I can see the 42 being a love/hate relationship. especially after having one nearly bit your finger off.

Re: Roller locked vs rotating bolts.
HK33 is already a nice commonly available 5.56X45MM roller- delayed rifle. If your looking to work with a roller locked system I'd suggest a modern high cap handgun based off the CZ52.

Re: firing pin question
For a two piece set-up using an original front pin, .44" from the start of the rear pin to the start of the collar or stop that touches the rear of the striker.
For a one piece set-up we'd need to get the length of the original pin. I'm sorry i can't dig out my stuff right now.
