Bill, I agree with you. The pictures by Bruce show the early style shoe filing. I don't know exactly how to describe it but if you look at the bottom of the receiver, on the old style cuts/channel/gouge, what ever you call it, extends almost to the top right and left edge of the floor plate. On the newer frames, the cut is just about to the bottom of the 2 top floor plate screws. It does slight alter the side shape of the receiver but is not as noticeable as the underside of the receiver. According to TPS, this change was a cost saving measure.

If I'm wrong about this, I'm sure you guys will correct me.

Russ, show pictures of the bottom of your receiver.
