    Just to make a quick note - I didn't use any kind of glue or threadlocker on the joint between the breech and the tube as I wanted it to be easily removable in case a tube had to be replaced. The tube is manufactured to a very good tolerance on the ID so I was able to machine all the shoulder OD's on the bodies to the same dimension (+/- about 0.0002 inch) and get a very tight fit on all of them. I figured they shouldn't really rotate at all when installed and in use, so no locating feature or glue/epoxy was needed. If you want to Loctite them, go for it - but just be sure you can remove it if need be.

    Glad you all like them - I should have some more news/updates on them when I get back from vacation next weekend.

            Had it done at a local car shop. The guy used my original battery pack to make a mold and then made the part for me. Looks awesome.
