X Mag Module came apart...Question for AGD.

[Bulldog]

I called AGD tech support to get an RA# for this. They said they have no access to parts for these. At the AO Cal meet you said you'd be able to help me out. Should I send this in? What kind of ETA am I looking at? (ballpark, I won't hold you to it)Thanks.

Also, I know of at least one other guy with this problem.

[SuiciDal Sn Y p ER]

have you tried contacting agde?

[Bulldog]

Nope, pretty expensive to go that rout, so I'd like to keep this domestic if possible, but if that's my only option...

[Steelrat]

What, exactly, happened? DId the neck just come out?

[USAF-Flyboy with a Mag]

Damn Russ...I forgot how bad yours was. After I got mine back into place, it wasn't noticable. I hope they can get it taken care of for you.

[Bulldog]

What, exactly, happened? DId the neck just come out?

I was fitting a new halo to it, and the set screws didn't hold the neck in place. It slid around with the Halo and the set screws gouged the anno off and dug into the aluminum.

Martin, so your feed neck doesn't move at all now?

[USAF-Flyboy with a Mag]

Russ,
So far so good. I tightened the set screws as tight as I could get them after I set it back in the proper position. I'll let you know next week since that is the next time I plan on playing.

You guys need to quit eating your Wheaties.

[Duke of Lawnchair]

I don't know about that Martin, he has a lot more bare metal showing than you probably had.

I have the exact same thing on my feedneck. My neck also had a run in with a HALO.

RRRaaarrr. (sound of metal being twisted apart) I am the strongest! or...what a module looks like, apart.

Duct tape that bad boy in there!!!!!! If it can hold on a bumper at 120mph it can hold a feed neck in place :D

[Duke of Lawnchair]

LOL!

Russ, you fixed it alright.

Fixed it for good!

[Bulldog]

lol, this makes me want to laugh, and cry. I figure now I'll just use a stick feeder from my stock days, just cram that in the top and I'm ready to go.

[edweird]

Quickly... toss that feedneck and slap a clamping feedneck in there!

take a sharpie to it and wammo ... ultra limited edition vert breech!

[USAF-Flyboy with a Mag]

This is Duke of lawnchairs idea, but he is being lazy as usual haha

LOL

I'm a true gov't employee.

[Bulldog]

lol, that is perfect.



Edit: now I'm crying.




:D

[gibby]

OUCH! Dang...sorry Russ!!! I can almost feel your pain!:( I hope you can get that replaced...quickly!

[RoadDawg]

Times like this make me glad to have a ULE Emag instead of a Xmag. Tough break big guy. Hope it gets fixed.

[LeatherPants]

JB Weld that mofo!

[yellow dart]

man i've done the same thing! Nothing but an eye sore now!

[AGD]

That is press fit and set screwed twice. Are you sure you didn't over do it a tad? Since its black we might be able to help you. Call later this week and have Jon talk to me.

AGD

Maybe just a little...:o Thanks, I'll talk to him tomorrow.

That's the problem with these type of feednecks, you never really know until it too late, and by then your hopper is either too loose or too tight.

[Jonesie]

Well, nbow that they are discontinued, we'll probably never see this realized, but...

I would like to reiterate the fact that I would buy a clamping feedneck for the X/SFL Mag...

[mxracer33x]

you can convert the breeches to accept feednecks. It has been done. I bet Doc would hook you up pretty well, and its not a very hard process ;)

and you have a great excuse to do it too!! :D

Duct tape is like the Force. It has a light side and a dark side. And it binds the universe together.

[evan123]

ya call AGD as fast as you can that thing looks ugly

Why the hell did you go thread diggin'? Settle down Indiana Jones this thread is old.

[RoadDawg]

What happened, is Bulldog posted in RRFireblades post asking if he can do a clamping no rise type of thing. So no the guy didn't go post hunting. Just responded through the link provided. Much like I just did.

Bulldog- Hope ya get it fixed.

[Vanced]

One broken Vert feed module add One new Rogue Strangler Feedneck and a little time and custom work .... and BAMN ... No mo' Halo Issues... And what do you know ... all kinds of fun without the joy of duct tape... :rolleyes:

Hate to see anyone's Mag go down like that... but Super Tom to the rescue...

[bambam]

man...why don't you just JB Weld it on there??
It would be permanent, but fixed...
