    Take your time and finish it slowly with a file then sand paper block rather than cut for the length you want
    If you do away with the bottom spring locator it also looses you the button that holds the floor plate in so they can disassemble quick and have wide tolerances at the factory. I wanted it to be a super tight fit so it doesn't need that to keep it, on just tons of friction
    Lots of sanding then testing to get it just how you want it
    If you take off too much off you can always just put the spring retainer back in and take the 2 shot reduce in capacity

    ^ I would throw a wad of cash at a Howa mini action if somebody built this bottom metal and did this conversion locally.

    Any issues with getting them here and in the country?

    Check with these and see if anyone has an order on the go?
    Unfortunately I think they have stopped manufacturing back in March so are only selling what they had in stock.
