thats a stock emag barrel.

Neither i believe lol. I think its either a stock emag barrel or maybe an RT or RTP stock barrel(the older stock barrel before the ULE bodies came out. I think Zman is right, about 40-50 sounds right.

No prob man, thats what AO is known for. We try to be as helpful and stuff as we can. PBN on the other hand is a buncha hype following flamers. You can always count on AO, at least imo you can.

oh and when i put the cp barrel on i put on real tight and then it still has some side to side movement when i put some force on it. i need parts too so if you guys got those list them all i got is a body and a barrel (making my own)

If the barrel has any movement when its all the way in you prob just need to replace the two orings on the barrel.

As for stuff for sale all i have left is the stucc in my sig, i had a lot more mag stuff but i sold most of it already.

where can i get barrel orings? can i use tank orings and just stretch or would that not offer an seal?

Adrenaline_Junkie

The orings used on a tank arent near big enought to hold the barrel in place. Your best bet is to check the agd stose and if ya cant find any there just go to a hardware store and get some.

Adrenaline_Junkie

The barrel orings cost $1 each in the agd store.

ok what do nubbins do?

Adrenaline_Junkie
07-31-2004, 08:50 PM
Nubbins are the detents used in twistlock style barrels, they go on the barrel and are held in by one or both of the barrel orings.

You said you were looking for peices i have a whole mag being parted out link in sig

Adrenaline_Junkie

Ok here are my two lists.

Stock plain and simple mag(this is not bad just costs less which looks like what your goin for) :
classic or RT valve
classic rail
Intelliframe
vert adapter
foregrip

Tricked setup (the more expensive setup):
ULE body
Xvalve
RPG frame
Rogue Rail
15* ASA
Foregrip

Those are the 2 diff options i could think of if your gonna build a mad, you could always take parts from each list to.

with both setups does that include all of the sear and stuff mech. wise etc.?

I wasnt thinkin that far down the line, in most cases if you buy a rail it comes with those parts. Well not always but if it doesnt just buy one. Other that that small thing you pointed out those are both full setups...i think lol.

The misc parts you need are a front frame screw, field strip screw, sear assembly, sear pin, rail bushing and twist lock assembly. The two screws are pretty basic, one bolts through the front of the trigger frame, through the rail, and into the body. The other bolts through the back of the trigger frame, through the rail bushing and into the valve. The rail bushing is a tube that sticks out the underside of the rail and into the frame to eliminate slop on the frame, and is almost always included with the rail. The sear assembly and pin drop through the rail and into the trigger frame behind the trigger - used to fire the Mag. You'll need a sear pin and sear assembly specific to your rail, either AM/MM (AutoMag/MiniMag) or RTPro (For EMag and RTPro rails).

Finally, the Twist Lock assembly is on the front of the rail. When you place the body on the rail, the Twist Lock assembly sticks up through the body and just forward of the breech. It's a spring loaded bearing which "locks" the barrel into place. The reason your barrel isn't tight in the body is because you don't have the rail, and therefore the Twist Lock assembly. Since you have a Classic body and Twist Lock barrels, you'll need a rail with the Twist Lock assembly included.

Note that ULE bodies (and all new bodies for that matter) use Autococker threaded barrels, as opposed to Mag Twist Lock barrels. Because of this, if you buy a rail used from somebody, be certain to ask if the Twist Lock assembly is included, it's not a given. The Twist Lock assembly is removed from rails which use ULE bodies, so some owners may not have them, or think to put them back into the rail when they sell them.

can anyone give me a rough estimate on how much more im gonna have to put on this going with option #1 on adrenaline junkies post.< $100. AM/MM rail with trimmings will be around $25, classic valve w/ Level 7 bolt about $40, sear and pin probably < $10, single trigger stock frame someone would probably just give you. :) You'll probably have another $30 in the two screws, a basic bolt on ASA, and hoses & fittings. Things get considerably more expensive when you start looking at Intelliframes and RT/X Valves, but they're not necessary to build a stock Mag from spare parts.
