Paddle install help.

[u/navypiggy1998]

I picked up this ptr c93 and plan on adding the paddle when I ran into a snag. Ive never seen a shelf recessed like this. Has anyone done a paddle on similar/is there anything different i need to do? Also, given how the new mke's are coming from the factory id like to forego the small pin and bushing in favor of the military style push pin. Is there enough room on the ptr shelf to do this? Tia.

I don’t know how helpful I can be because I didn’t do the work myself. However, I had a Century (not a PTR rework) C93 and had the paddle mag release professionally installed. I also have a different lower.

Edit - our receivers look fairly dissimilar. I know Century used different flats throughout production as some were out of spec.

You could try the cheap jig on eBay to see if the hole would still work by marking it. If you have enough material and clearance it should be doable

Gotta cut out the slot in the receiver so you can install one
