For what it’s worth, the start up of production shows a lot of oddities on these, and inconsistencies. The same goes for looking at 39...

I've used a clamp/spreader tool and two pieces of 550 cord. It worked awesome and didn't have to worry about scraping any metal parts.

Using that description on the rifle in question is 100% marketing, likely to trick someone who isn't knowledgeable or new collectors...
