G.12/34 (G29ö) restoration update

Thanks to some help from Century Arms and Fox Stocks, my G.12/34 (G29ö) restoration is finally nearing completion. They were able to get me a bayonet lug, bayonet lug pin, front band, and front band screw. The bayonet lug is technically incorrect for a G.12/34, but was nonetheless manufactured by Steyr-Solothurn. I was able to salvage the recoil lug, butt plate, and bottom sling mount from my original stock. I just need to transfer the stock disk and source a side sling swivel, or the base at least as it seems the Germans possibly removed these from their rifles. Columbian Contract G.12/34 on top and German Steyr G.12/34 on bottom.

Glad to see the project finishing up. How do you like the stock from Fox?

I wish I had known you needed bands, I've got some laying around here somewhere.

Everything came together really well. The only one "issue" is the recoil lug is slightly loose, but when everything is assembled, it doesn't move at all. All the other parts fit with no modifications. Any ideas on how to remove the old stock disk? Needle nose or snap ring pliers?
