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.
How do i? LX foamie fell off ... how to put back on the right way?

use superglue but you have to make sure that you get EVERYTHING off of the front of the bolt
all old glue, dirt, whatever. if its dirty it wont stick long
use a little rubbing alchol and it will speed up the glue removal

In my sig is a link to a certain type of CA glue that has rubber particles in it to keep the glue from getting hard and brittle. This helps keep the foamie from blowing off due to shock that goes through the bolt that would otherwise make brittle glues crack.
baka, you're more than willing to try, but I don't think it would be a good idea. IIRC, Tom said that the foamie really isn't even needed on on the LVL10 bolts. I'd say it's there for more of a placebo effect.
the good 'ol sugar pill. Well i'll try it if someone has extras but i don't think i'll buy any then. B/c wasn't the lvl 7 chopping issue w/ the outer edge of the bolt?
thanks i used some mixture stuff my mom had in the drawer it was basically super glue so as of now its staying
My foamie blew off 2weeks ago. Last saturday I played w/ my mag(w/out the foamie) and it didnt chop a ball all day. If your level 10 is working properly, then the gun will still work fine even w/out the foamie.

Yes, foamies were a stock feature on the early automags. I remember buying my first foamieless bolt.
no big differences, I guess if you are using a nonLX bolt and really brittle paint it could help, but not much. I wouldn't bother, it could cause problems, if the balls get caught on the foamie and don't feed smoothly you are going to chop like mad.
