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.
Did a Logic UMF T-Rex install today.
I'm very happy with the conversion, there's enough material in the frame to machine for a good fit. Tested it and it works great.
Not sure, I dont own a Tickler to measure. However, the Logic frame dose not look ideal for a sleeper reg, there's four 10-32 ASA threaded holes in the bottom, plus there's a dovetail. You would also have to figure out how to deal with the lower grip frame screws. I'm sure someone has done it, those are just some issues you would have to work out.
Is there enough room in the logic frame for a lpr below the Trex such as a tickler?
In order to get the tickler in there you have to machine the grip screws away. I've done it and just used custom grips with relocated lower screws. You could also use Dye "Stickie 3's" and only use the upper mounting screws.
Played at the field last weekend this things rips. I'm not very good at walking the trigger but for some reason left handed I got some pretty good strings together. Right handed I could fan the trigger pretty fast.
My setup is classic valve and rt on/off stock .750 pin length.
Attached a pic she is ready for anno. Thinking dust black all around. polished grips to match classic valve and a stainless dye barrel? Not into the crazy splashed anno.
Here's a sneak peek at a pneumag only trigger I've been working on. This is just the prototype, I'm still waiting on some magnets and other parts to come in so I can finish up testing.
The first picture is WITH the safety engaged. It has a super short stroke and the design is intended to give you the maximum amount of finger room possible with a factory spec trigger guard.
This is more about function and performance rather than aesthetics.
There is no need for a top set screw and it really does not need the bottom one with the stroke as short as it is. However I believe the valve will operate with a shorter stroke than what I have the trigger designed at. Currently at the valve pin in the T-Rex only depresses 0.02" with this trigger.
This will still be a magnetic return, this trigger will have a small (removable) magnet in the top of the trigger that will pull against the magnets in the frame. I plan on putting a kit together that will allow you to adjust the magnetic force between the frame and trigger. Still waiting on parts to do that testing though.
I hope I don't piss to many people off with this release, some of you just purchased frames and triggers. (sorry, it's just the nature of the beast with developing new parts)
once your have the trigger up for sale (Ia ssume it'll be here as well?) I will most definitely get one plus at least one T-Rex, one or two Rails airline-milled and maybe two frames with the install (one of your Mini Verts and an Intelli)... awesome job!
