ok so i got a really nice euro mag in today.

took it apart to clean the old paint out of it.
and found problems with the breech.
there was a feedneck mod done to it.
and when i lossen the set screws it just pulls right out.
from what i know the feedneck mod was still supose to be pressfitted?
not sure.

ontop of all that where the neck sits is hacked up.

from what i saw i can put it back together and have it work but im afraid to run the marker
and end up maring or messing the body up or breech, and i have found no one who has an extra for sale.

please any help is needed and wanted.

i have some vids i made for some machinists to see if they can clean it up or if it is beyond cleaning up.
here are the videos--->

I don't think the mod is supposed to be press-fit, hence the need for the set-screws. I am sure somebody else knows for sure. I would suggest you contact BigEvil. He has done a few of the mods and can probably advise you on this...GL.

Oh that poor breach! :(

I wish I could offer some assistance, but machining isn't my forte. All the best.

There is nothing wrong with it. It just looks like chop meat. Sometimes when you pull the stock feedneck out they look like that. They are TIGHT.
