I want to switch to CenterFeed, do I understand this correctly?

[JEDI]

Blnk 162 whats cheap?

You have a center feed Emag body? I'm very interested if so. Is it chrome? Let me know the details, and we'll talk.

Well they can be converted. There is a member here who does them for like $25.

All you need is a Drimmel tool and the guts to do it. (It helps if you have a drill press.) The most important part is locating the "de-tent" hole to line up the breach.

centerfeed for my 68, does the e-mag body work?

i really need to know if i can get centerfeed body for my 68?

[cphilip]

[raymond]

wow!

thank you, you just made my day! from what i've seen I thought the e-mag rtpro one was the only centerfeed is that right?

I do it in a CNC mill that I have at work. I made a set up so the barrel lines up in the correct location for the new twist lock hole that I mill. My set up is much more accurate that using a dremel

Dremel? Thanks but no thanks. Stuff like this I'd prefer to have done by someone who pretends to be better at it than me. But thanks for the suggestion

Smart choice Would you rather have a Machinist that is Department of Labor certified milling your barrel or a guy with a dremel from walmart?

[JEDI]

Hmmm... does the walmart have a kiddie play area? Yo, Damage can the powerfeed milled-to-center-feed barrels still be used as powerfeed barrels?

You can still use my modified barrels on a hopper left mag. The barrel cannot be used on a hopper right mag. I have to mill the new twist lock hole for the centerfeed in the twist lock slot for hopper right. Works out great for anybody that has a hopper left mag and a centerfeed mag as you can use the same barrels for both. I have a centerfeed Emag and a hopper left RT. All of my barrels can be used on either gun.

Great! I'm gonna go with it. I'll get in touch with you as soon as I'm ready. I wanna get the center feed first. BLNK 162, DO YOU HAVE THAT CENTER FEED STILL?

What a joke, it doesn't take a ROCKET SCIENTIST to drill a detent hole. In the time it would take him to box up his barrel to send to you, I can have the Mod done.

What are you mad about? You afraid of losing some chump change? Good Machinists make GOOD money, what's up?

Gee that's intimidating!

I find this type of attitude insulting. You want to make a few bucks off someone that doesn't have the skills to do it their self, that's your right, but you don't have the right to insult me along the way. Perhaps you should grow up a little and practice some humility.

[JEDI]

Listen man, I told you I appreciated your suggestion, and the fact that you're just lookin' out. I'm just not comfortable doing it myself. I'm sure theres no cruel intensions here. But again thanks!

[luke]

JEDI,
Not one of my responses were directed at you.

and the fact that you're just lookin' out.

I decided to let this slide.
