    Happy Valentines Tracy.

    Any updates for us this week on the GB?

    Thanks!

        Sorry for delay in response, but I was waiting for a more definite answer. Parts will be ready late this afternoon. Should be shipping to me tomorrow, so I should have them Tuesday or Wednesday of next week.

            Just wondering if these are still available. Sent an email to the project address and waiting to hear back. Thanks.

              There are some guys selling the ones they just received. One in raw and couple in dusk black. Other wise you have to wait till all others have shipped to see what's left.

                    almost forgot to post up my girls...
                    of course I'm working on custom goodies for 2 out of the 3;
                    even the one you get to see has some custom grip panels on the way.
                    just gotta wait till my casting supplies arrive lol!
                    gotta love my DIY photo scale board. each square is one square inch.
                    it's 20" x 30"; makes for a hell of a game of shot glass checkers!

                        Finally got to shoot the above 09MM; she shot perfectly: till I ran out of co2.

                        RATZO, I NEED MY BOTTLES BACK!!

                        which is a good thing because the valve fits so tight I'm not sure I can get it back out!
                        any suggestions?

                        uh... Tracy is it supposed to be that tight?
                        I mean I had to use a mallet to get it into the body and even then it was tough going.
                        do X valves fit differently than Classic Micromag reverse valves?

                        my left hand has healed such as it is.
                        but the function of my left hand has been dramatically reduced.
                        I can't extend my 2 middle fingers.

                        22 years of recovery after my motorcycle crash undone by a quack surgeon.
                        too bad I'm too broke to sue.
                        insurance companies have deep pockets so I doubt I'd live long enough to get a judgement even if I had the money to take legal action.

                          I asked this before and was disappointed by no response.

                          Does the trigger rod need to be tweaked to get correct function in the Micromag? Or is the stock length acceptable?
                          If it needs to be tweaked what length should it be?

                            I didnt have to tweak the sear length at all, if thats what you are asking.

                            Its the crazy Canadian humidity, causes them to swell.
                            Mallet and Xvalve should never be used in the same sentence.

                              Trigger rod should sit about a business cards thickness from the back of the trigger.

                                It seems that there is at least a .005" variance in the OD of the valve bodies over the past 15 years of samples that we have (not sure of the specifics). Forest tried "old" micromag and classic valves that were .005" larger than an e-micro valve serial number 00034 which was probably from 2000 or 2001 as well as a proto-type 68 micromag retro valve and these 2 fit fine, as well as an old automag valve that was on the larger side but fit snugly in the new body.
