AO: We are back from the dead... again! After an 18 day outage, we are finally alive and well. Who knew how complicated updating software/databases from 2008 would be. I still have alot of tweaks to make, but my main goal was getting everything patched and updated to 2026.
Vbulletin 6 has changed alot since 2008 so we will have a ton of new features to dig into.
Does anyone have a: How to remove c-clip from ULE?

The "Ring and Clip".
What are they?
In aluminum 'mag bodies, the bolt spring contacts the inside of the body on a ledge just behind the feed neck area. If unprotected, this aluminum ledge will eventually peen out and cause problems. The ring protects the aluminum ledge from the bolt spring, and the clip keeps the ring from falling out when the valve and bolt are removed from the body.
Why are they removable?
If they are in the body when the body is anodized, the steel ring and clip would dissolve in the anodizing vat.
We ship all of our anodized bodies with the ring and clip installed.
We ship our "raw" (polished, unanodized) bodies with the ring and clip included but usually not installed.
If you plan to use your raw DW body kit before getting it anodized, you must install at least the ring (if for temporary use) and the clip as well
