OK, I am sick of shooting out my AGD brand detents and am looking for something a little heartier than stock. I know everyone says Kila detents but those suck too. I had one in for an hour and it literally fell out (not in too tight or anything, I am not a meat stick). I guess I am just looking for someone to point me in the direction of THE ULE body detent to have.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Not sure what's up with your AGD ones. I have AGD detents that last for years. Maybe you have them in a little too far?

Yeah, the Kila's suck with mags. Dont use them. I brake them at an alarming rate.

CP == SUCK. blew out my cocker ones in 1 game.


I currently am using stock angel ones on a good oring so ther sit a good distance away so they would get fubard bythebolt.

I'm a fan of the PTP detent, wish more guns were like that.

I have always had good results with killa detents. Thats what all of my e/x/mech mags used. The only downside to them is you need to get different orings to make sure they dont screw in too far.

Yeah, I think the Killas suffer more when they are screwed in deeper (not necessarily too far). On Killas, I try to increase the tension and back them out as much as possible, instead of screwing them in with lighter tension (magnets).

I also keep the tension setting on my B2 set to "light". My old Halo can be way too mean with small paint in a ULE.

Cp is not good, dry fire a e-mag and one popped right out! Never got a reply from an e-mail to cp also.

I wanted kila detent, what the o-ring size needed?

I really didn't think they were in too far. I put the fattest o-ring on them and just barely tightened them up against the ring. I am seeing what happens in this thread so I can get them replaced before the epic TUNABALL 3 :cheers:

RPG ones are pretty good... and rebuildable like Kila, but use a spring instead of a magnet.

I've been using System X ball bearing detents with sucess. And they can be anodized.

There is no reason for any of these detents to be blowing out. You have them in too far. All work fine as fas as I am conderned.

that may be the case, but even with a thicker o-ring and them only screwed into the second thread... they blow out. I am just going to buy a 10 pack of AGD detents and replace them as needed! Thanks for the insight guys :cheers:

Frequently MCB member sugarstump sell the System X detents on Ebay but he doesnt have
anything on there right now. Heres his profile if you want to contact him :
