As i was cleaning my xmag last night because of a bad hit- right on the grip, behind the trigger- sprayed the inside nicely... ;(

but, anyway, I noticed that the solenoid plunger was loose and would screw/unscrew easily, anyone know what the length of it should be? I tried tightening the lock nut thing on it but it didn't help, gonna use a little locktite, but i want the length to be right...

3.10" ought to do it.

Be sure to measure from the top of the arm the clevis attaches to down to the tip of the plunger. Make sure it's at 90 degrees to get the proper length measurement.

I use green loctite for locking down the solenoid plunger because it's the very thin loctite that "wicks" into the threads.
