Nice work !
Makes me wanna get a mill.... and a lathe.
I've converted bottom bolt release to top release on my brothers308 FCP-K.
I ordered a sear from brownells for like $6 (bolt release is together with the sear).
On rifles with the top bolt release there is a recess on the action for the bolt release lever and on the fcpk there is no such recess. So I bent the sear lever outwards until it broke and re-welded it on a very slight angle to clear the receiver. I then cut a recess in the stock for the bolt release lever.
As you can see in the pic, it's a fcp-k with a top bolt release and aics bottom metal. I don't remember what manufacturer's bottom metal he got but I remember they shipped the wrong one and I had to grind off some of the aluminum bedding and extend the front screw spacing because the bottom metal was for 4.2" hole spacing and the fcp-k has the 4.4" spacing.
