Is there room for an Lpr in an Intelliframe?

[Loneassassin]

Just like the title says. Namely a Tickler lpr, because that's what I have. Eventually I'll probably upgrade to an AKA SCMIII or Micro Rock.

Also, what are the advantages of a ULE rail as opposed to a standard rail? I'm hopefully going to be ordering a gun from Tuna soon and I'm trying to decide exactly how I want it set up. If I could save money on the rail, for example, there would be more money for pneumag parts, etc...

Thanks!

It's possible. Not easy, though.

As for the rail..... any ULE rail will be slightly lighter than a standard rail, and longer. Other than that, it's really all about how pretty you want your gun to look.

Actually a Tickler will go in much easier than one of those bullet LPRs pictured; they're very short and fairly thin by comparison. It's just a matter of having grips that can take a little scraping/milling/rubbing around the adjustment knob; not necessary but I did it to my aluminum KAPP grips because it makes adjustment a little easier. Be warned, the Karnivor tickler (straight milling on cap) doesn't fit as well as the Orrical tickler (twisty milling on cap) because it's a little bit wider and harder to get a purchase on when adjusting.

I don't think an STB/MicroRock will fit. I know you can take some serious meat off the sides, but frankly they're just too wide.

The ones I have are Orracle Ticklers. I'm really sold on the "sleeper" style. The only thing I worry about is how reliable the Tickler will be with 850+psi feeding directly to it. They are not the most sophisticated lpr on the market...I've had several fail on my Cockers, and those were fed pre-regulated air (300psi give or take.). The "cup-seal" design just isn't condusive to being fed super-high pressures. Not to mention, they aren't real consistant at low settings.

Has anybody ever tried an AKA on a Mag? They are without a doubt the best lpr ever made...

Ticklers are quite popular for pneumags around here. There has been some discussion as to how low they can operate consistently at, but some of AO's best pneumag-installers still prefer them.
The only issues I've ever heard of are pressure spikes when initially airing up the marker & LPR. Holding the trigger while airing up helps to alleviate that.

I suppose it all depends on the importance of a sleeper install. There's always trade-offs...
