Banjo bolt RT problem

[primetime]

If I rememeber right, its been awhile since I have had to take mine apart. There shouldnt be a nut in your body rail there should be a threaded nipple on your powerfeed/vert feed body that the screw from your gripframe screws into. The little nipple should be around 1/4" or so long. Hope that helps. Also can you post a picture of you body and rail and gripframe, maybe that would help out too, so we all know exactly what you have.


Also email me you addy and I will get you the banjo bolt and consider it a christmas present.

ok hope this helps out a little. Someone let me know if im wrong. I know its not a RT body but it should be the same for the RT.

So it sounds like you are in the need of a new body, sorry to hear that. I wonder how that got taken off or better yet why. But you should be able to get someone to sell you one pretty cheap hopefully.

well, i took it apart, and i realized the "nut" i was talking about what actually the nipple from the body BROKEN OFF!
i'm positive i can fix this with some superglue, seeing how my gun actually performed nicely without using the nipple at all. so, im wondering what i should use to stick the 2 back together. im not going to blow my Christmas money on a new body because IRBODDEN gave me a broken gun!! (yes it was like this when i got it, i remember taking it apart and it being like this)

toymyster this is a question for you!

I really believe you will need a new body, super glue might hold for a second but not for good. Maybe some type of JB-weld would work?? but make sure you sand the surfaces of both pieces to make sure you get a good surface for it to attach to. Good luck!!

[toymyster]

Just a typical superglue will not hold the nut onto the body!! Your best bet, of course is to get a new body, or if you know anyone who can TIG weld can weld it back on for you!! However, a two part epoxy type glue may work, you just have to be careful that A) You follow the instructions to the letter, and B)Epoxy the nut Exactly where it is supposed to be!!! And remember, don't get impatient, most Epoxys take between 6 to 24 hours to set!!

AND, get a new banjo bolt from matey boy. Make sure its the bolt thats stripped and not the valve.
You probably wont have room to epoxy or JB weld it on either.
