I am removing the final 8 teeth right now I do not how to Swiss cheese well so I think I will leave it like it is (it is a pre lightened one)
Making it a 7 teeth dsg could help but won't the FPS be really low tho?
Also I do not know if it will feed right now but I have a really good mag I will try hopefully it will work.
Swiss cheesing
@Lefse is the expert
(he's still working on attaching the piston head to rack to save as much weight as possible)
easiest way to swiss is dremel out slots say 2x2 slots
see the rails removed at front where it stays inside piston on a DSG
the main thing is to not go too nutz and remove too much too soon
if drilling big holes it can tear/rip the plastic
or you grind out way too much asap
start off mildly and trim/file more off in stages
leave the bit under the rails near rack - them small holes lose little weight
and if you are inexperienced best build up your confidence & skill perhaps
But a quick cutting of 2 x 2 long slots, supported in center of piston like pic
is perhaps quickest & most effective pattern, with little cleaning of burrs inside
The FPS will be very low if $hit smashes up again ie: zero fps on a f*cked gun
Only one way to find out, SS a tooth doesn't do anything to feed timings
well it does mess tappet timings if you remove from release side of sector too much
remove from PICK UP side - chop off the first tooth that picked up the piston
