Luke's Armada Rails

Yep, thats what you give up for ULE. Hit the hardware store and get two 10-32 screws, should cost you less than $1

Nice! I didn't know what size to get. Now I do!

I usually just put a short stack of washers in.

Another question.

How do I remove this piece that's pictured without damaging it. What about installing on my Armada rail?

Should pull out with a pair of needle nose pliers. If not, use a vice and a couple of pieces of wood to press it out.

Spot on. I just use needle nose pliers too. Only one time did I use something to press it out, and it didn't require a vice. I just pressed it against the floor until the bushing slid out. Can't remember what I used, but maybe it was a piece of dowel rod or something.

Or you can buy new from Tuna.

Needle nose pliers work, but can damage the bushing.
A flat tip punch, hammer and vise will do less damage.
You really need a flat surface to lay the rail on when using the punch and hammer method because you can bend the rail other wise.
I have found some of the older style bushings and ones that have been in the rail for years very stubborn and wont budge with pliers.

Thanks for the help guys.

Also, I wanted to say that you guys did a great job collaborating and manufacturing these Armada rails. They turned out awesome!!!

It may just be me, but it seems like my Mag RT's much easier now? Seems crazy easy!

got mine earlier this week. quick mock up of each rail on a XMT ULE Minimag Body w/Lukes Double Frame (may have to pick up a second).

[luke]

Can't wait to see it finished! Thanks for the pictures.

Might try put it on a ego mag.

Sweet! I like the pump...

Here's a picture that would give people a general idea on how a z-grip sits on a Armada rail.
I just need to change up the CP ASA and rail.
