Sk8ermog Project #2 - Gas Through M86 Trigger Frame - DONE!

[knownothingmags]

the uniframe would be your best bet on actually hiding the hose.

the Demon series stuff, is something you should look into.....


if you want a ruff sketch in paint to explain ill do it. just not sure if its possible, even if the Demon frames are made.

I done a couple of gas through grips top one on a classic, I made as spacer rail which was ported to seal on the rail, purely because I didn't have enough room to position the frame to allow room for the sear.

My other gas through was my ep mag which also used a spacer rail but that was for air transfer purposes only

wow, I never saw that ravishingeddie mag before. looks good with both fittings like that

I always liked your green Classic RT. Did you make a thread about how you got the air through the grip and into the Banjo fitting?

That was my though too. It's hard to get another fitting in the grip unless he went another way. I've never seen pictures of the inside of his frame.

Sk8ermog: Nice build! When I see these types of mods I always think of the old Elite Frames from overseas. I never understood why they never caught on.

You should see a cutaway of an Armson Semi.

I put an aluminum back on the valve and an Empire spring feed on it. Shoots great! Last part is to get it anodized and install the new blue CCM pump handle I just bought.

I shot it all day long at the MCB SPEW 4 pump weekend and loved it.

Here I am holding it. Bottom Row, Fourth From Left:

Good work, but the only slight issue i have is that the frame is literally tieing everything together. So much that you have to drop the frame to take out the valve. Though its a minor issue, but to loose the ease of access and modular design is not worth it, IMO. So, any thoughts to that?

That's Cougars frame and CAD file from here: http://www.automags.org/forums/showt...igns-M86-Run-2

The frame is independent enough that I can put a different frame on the rail and run microline up to the valve. In fact I can still use this frame on any other mag and just run Macroline on the outside of the frame. Lots of options.

I like it. Thought about doing it at one point but just putting a hole at the very top and bottom of the grip. Would probably get in the way of the sear though.

At least you can still take the valve off quickly.

So Bunny it's funny that you brought up the "45 Elite" cause I've always loved the idea of this frame, but never seen one on sale or in person... till now.

More great pics of this little Euro gem that I just picked up.
