when it's straightened, is the slight angle at the triggerguard bow straightened also?

No, you have to maintain that angle because the screw in the rear receiver tang is at an angle.

thanks.

When you straighten the trigger guard, you also have to shorten the magazine box by the thickness of the guard; as this cut is parallel to the original edge of the box, the angle of the assembly remains the same. Lotsa work!

Or else use a longer front screw and keep the original larger magazine capacity.

hold on fellas- does this refer to straightening the guard at the triggerguard bow, or moving the front piece down flat (the portion that takes the front action screw)?

EDITED: I re-read both replies and understand what you were referring to- and thanks, I needed the information.

Tin Can, I know you said you know now, but for the others that might not. The top is a orginal and the bottom is a straightened.
