dovetail

A dovetail joint or simply dovetail is a joinery technique most commonly used in woodworking joinery (carpentry), including furniture, cabinets, log buildings, and traditional timber framing. Noted for its resistance to being pulled apart (tensile strength), the dovetail joint is commonly used to join the sides of a drawer to the front. A series of 'pins' cut to extend from the end of one board interlock with a series of 'tails' cut into the end of another board. The pins and tails have a trapezoidal shape. Once glued, a wooden dovetail joint requires no mechanical fasteners.

    Sako dovetail mounts?

However they aren't and won't fit my rifle which has a 11mm dovetail flat top set up. Researching the internet it appears they are for a Sako rifle (pic of Sako L46 attached) and...

    1911 slide front dovetail

    Simple question for any gunsmiths/machinists. Is there enough 'meat' on the front of my stock, Colt 1991 A1 slide to have it cut for a standard 3/8" dovetail? Reason is I want to put new sights on it and do NOT want to mess with the typical 'swaged' front sight.
