      Yes, the internal dimensions did not change between levels, so a spacer kit will benefit your gun.

      Level 6 guns had springs instead of spacers, but the spring was not adjustable enough, hence the spacers are part of the upgrade to level 7.

          in the powertube

          check out this diagram:



          Take off your bolt from the valve, and unscrew the powertube tip (brass) then in there, there will be a spring. Replace the spring with the powertube spacer. You might have to experiment, some spacers have leaking down the barrel or bolt stick.

              CF 02714 so its a nice OLD one but works flawlessly...

                Do you have a yellow bumper on your valve? If so, you'll never find a spacer short enough to fit that gun.

                  I belive colored proteam spacers come in .195, 200, and 210 varieties if that is short enough.

                      27xx is probably a Level 7. I've seen springs before in Level 7's. Heck, My ReTroValve had a spring in it when I got it (Second hand). The change from spring to spacer happened after the Level 6 - Level 7 change.

                        Minimag 1321 is a level 7.

                        as far as spacers go. They were a PTP aftermarket product from 93 or 94 till after I went into my hiatus in 1997, when I came out of my hiatus in 2000 the spacers were being put into mags.

                          All Minimags are Level 7. Some came with springs, others with spacers.

                          The main change from Level 6 to 7 is the removable PT was welded on for all Level 7 guns.

                            Level 7

                            All Minimags are built to Level 7. Also look at your bolt, if it has a step in it, it's a Level 7 Mag.
