Minimag Body on Emag Lowers?

[pinkanese]

I understand the difference in the body mounting points and that I would have to mill a pocket in the Emag rail but is there anything else that would be an issue? I am assuming not I just want to be sure.

[SkinnyHare]

no, not as long as it gets milled right. i had Luke's Customs do it for me, worked out just fine.

i believe you can also modify the minimag body instead of messing with the emag rail.

You can file down the pim on the Minimag body. But please, for the love of God, if it's an uncut centerfeed MM body, please don't.

[pinkanese]

nah it has to be a powerfeed so i can run a warp. :)

What sort of on/off do I need for Emag lowers? Would an r/t on/off with a quad oring work?

[OPBN]

RT on/off with .712 pin and quad o-rings. From my understanding, you can do it with a ULT, but it's difficult.

[athomas]

Yes, the 0.712" RT pin with quad oring is the correct on-off.

Yes, file the pim so that it is round and it will fit the emag rail.

What's the best method to do this with home tools (dremel and hand files)? And would it be better to file the pim on the minimag body, or mill out the rail?

[sQuidvision]

you switching up the etac Justus? you just got your rail milled!

[Justus]

No no. I just need to finish the Minimag that I'm building for my father-in-law. I'm using an RT Pro rail because I need the length on the bottom. Same concept as above, so I didn't want to start a new thread.

Fits and funtions no problem. I just ground the sides of the pim down.

Just the front and back of the pim? You didn't have to grind on the sides, did you? And did you use a dremel or something?

I found it helpful to thread a short screw all the way into the pim and then use the head of the screw as a guide for how much to dremel off. Doing it this way produces a nice round pim.

Hey that's a good tip. Thanks!

Nice! good idea!

Yes, I had used a dremmel, and a file to smooth it out. The sides of the pim had to be taken down a bit if I recall correctly.
