Introducing the Micromag 2009

As far as the front block screws go, the concern is that they need to be torqued down pretty tight and we really don't want to take the chance of them stripping - ever.

If anyone wants to replace the front block screws with Allens that could also be done. Screw length varies slightly by manufacturer and ours are a hair over spec which led us down this path of grind-or-build to begin with. After a re-think we realized that Torx would be a better option regardless for the front block screws.

We still get MicroMags back through the door that are close to 15 years old, and figure that 15 years down the road you'll be glad you haven't had to deal with drilling out stripped screws - way tougher getting good leverage with the drill press from your walker...

So 1/8" Allen on the sear axle, T-15 Torx for the front block. Maybe someone even has a combo tool, or not...

I was messing around with the body I have and found that the screws are a tad too long. They bottom out in the bottom of the front block before it is pulled down tight to the rail, that is likly why these are being stripped out.

I forgot all about that post- never heard anything about new screws from it -.-

Anyone have any advice on on/off pin length and trigger rod length specs for a 2K9 Micromag body combined with a Micromag Retrovalve?

Not to poke the dog with a stick, but what I don't understand is why I was one of the last ones on the list (bought someones spot who was last on the list), but I was one of the first to get mine I think. Add to that, the first one I got had an ano flaw on the passengers side and I sent it back and received a replacement within a couple of weeks. And mine was gloss black. Not complaining, but seems wierd that others have still been waiting for parts.

I'm really scared to try and use the two bodies I purchased

[insixdays777]

PTP excuse per our conversation was with running out of screws and forest had to make more and or better different ones.

I am just a messenger. I am as pissed as everyone.

Mine was the same way gloss black with a huge scratch through the anodizing on the passenger side. Sent it back got a replacement right away. I just cant belief that all these things are not resolved yet.
