Shocker Framed Mag

[BiNumber3]

Well, i got this idea from saber on MCB, in taking an old shocker grip frame n modding it to fit a mag. He did it with a micro tho, while i did it with my rt, and plan to do another for my classic.

Basicly the main things that needed to be done were:
- drilling a hole for the twistlock
- elongating, and in the case of a classic RT enlarging, the thumbscrew hole as it doesnt quite line up
- and modifying the trigger, and/or if u want the sear pin to fit
- also, a longer front screw will be needed, unless u wanna thin the frame there for the stock screw to fit
- also added a second pin to serve as a stop for the the trigger

Benefits: a different look, magnetic trigger return, cheaper
Drawbacks: time consuming, it's smart parts so some may not like it:P

I plan to add faux ivory grips as well. Thinking this type of frame would serve for pneumagging purposes quite well

I remember someone making a pneu-frame from one of those last year.

I thought it was just for cosmetic reasons... never knew that it had a magnetic return.

Nice work! The guy above me might be talking about the one I did a while back (pic)

The frame geometry is surprisingly similar, making it definitely not the worst frame to retrofit onto a mag...lol

I did this too a while ago, though mine was not electronic. The frame its self lines up so well that there's not alot of fuss in addition to the magnetic return (though I found it to be clumsy with the actuator arm, a magnetic return of the actuator arm is so much better)

I also have a shocker pneu-frame, but I didnt do the work, I got it from mag79 last fall

I think it looks pretty nice, especially if you can get one for a decent price

that look like some thing i want do, do any shocker work? thx

[BiNumber3]

I'm sure any shocker frame would work, I've only used a couple different ones, but ive seen another usin a shocker frame/asa, where the shocker's built in asa took the place of the normal asa.

Here are some pics of my other shocker framed mag, a pf classic:

Here's wat the frame used to look like:

thx, guess that the way i'm going go with my new gun.

[riceboi]

i just got the frame for $13 but still need buy a trigger, what the best kind to use? thx for help guys

[BiNumber3]

hmm, u may wanna look at the critical pro triggers, ive seen some that come with a trigger pin that doesnt need a hammer, plus theyre ball bearing. Just make sure the trigger u get is designed for the frame u got.

[riceboi]

it the same frame for u guys have but i dont have any info on it so i need find out the year.

[BiNumber3]

loos like 03 shockers and SFT's, but from lookin at the designs most any shocker trigger should work, since we're not usin shocker internals

Ebay has a few that will work.

[riceboi]

kool thx, i'm turning it into a Pneumag but not sure what way i'm going do it yet not til i get the framed in my hand see how much room i have.

[BiNumber3]

mine have about as much room as a ule'd intelli, these shocker frames are made light. Only problem ive found is that some grips dont cover it all the way

[riceboi]

ic u think it can fit a LPR in it?
