Will this frame work on my classic mag? I was curious because i need a double frame for a mech only tourney coming up.

They'll work, just make sure you get the AGD RT.

If it's for a classic RT you may need to put a spacer in the back frame hole.

how would you do that?

Just find a 1/4" brass(or other metal) bushing with an inside diameter the same size as your rear frame screw.

You only have to do this if it's for a Classic RT.

I'm buying one. That's a good deal.

Used one of the classic RT frames for years. I had no problem with having to fill the extra space. Just pay attention as you tighten the field strip screw in keeping the hole centered. I did however have to slightly modify my sear for it to work right. Had to bend the trigger rod itself slightly.

I have never heard of having to bend the trigger rod to make the marker work. Why did you have to? I need to know cause I just ordered a frame :D

i got a hinge frame on my pump mag. all you have to do is gut it out and maybe alil drilling here and there. i forgot if its a longer or shorter sear rod. i'll get some pics later, photobucket is down for abit.

I've never had to use a bushing on frames drilled for classic RT's. As mentioned just use a little care in aligning the frame to the rail and you'll be fine.

Using a bushing is going to be a little more precise than aligning by eye.

i just got one ... the twistlock hole in the front of the grip isn't deep enough and i couldn't get my barrels in with the grip on because it pushed up the twist lock assembly up too far (out if the rail a little bit)... get a spacer for the back or the grip will move on you during a game ... good luck finding grips that will fit without stretching them akwardly ... the extreme rage grips they send will fit but not perfect ...

im thinking about selling mine ... but i paid the same price ...

On a trigger frame designed for an old school RT with the banjo fitting, I cut a vertical slice in a power tube spacer with a dremmel and it snugged the thing right up.

The slot/hole under the trigger was too shallow and required me to slightly bend the trigger rod upwards to prevent binding up.

It was an easy fix.
