  1. Ran into one more problem, and it may just be my ignorance. On the threaded piece of the extention tube there is a extended piece that has a slot that could possibly be for a sling. The problem is when you slide the forearm on, the barrel has to go on next and you can't thread the extention piece on because the extended piece hits the barrel as you start to thread it. I am soooooo confused, it just can't be this complicated.

    however before you do that you need to look for 2 pieces 1 is a small black metal cap about the size of a nickle with bent edges and a whole in the center. this is the top cap for the very tip of the extension tube and of course you have to have your spring so IMHO replace the stock spring with your new +4 spring let it hang out, drop the top cap *nickle sized black bit* down the tube, and then put the end of the spring down the mag tube, when it works right the spring will push evenly against the extension cap and push it into place at the top of the tube from there just do some careful feeding of the spring into the 2 parts of the mag tubes and then when you get it all together screw the coller down onto the orignal threading on your basic mag tube

     

     

    now if i've missed something and your saying the tube itself is threaded and doesn't have the collor that i was talking about then i'll have to do some homework on it for you

     

     

    BTW please note if you do get it on successfully *and i hope you do* make sure you have/get/use the extension clamp, those 4 extra shells can actually be enough weight to warp or bend the tube as a whole with out the reinforcement of that barrel to mag tube clamp

     

     

    PS. I stated that the little black cap has rounded edges if you think of the cap as a U then you put it in upside down so that the rounded end is at the top

     

     

    hope i could help

    Wulf thanks for your help, I thought that may be the way it went together, but what threw me was the end of the extention tube will be left open showing the little black cap with no cover. I'm surprised they designed it with no cap on the end.

    Thanks again

  3. I just bought the 4 shot mag extention for my SBE and I am having difficulty figuring out how the extention tube attaches to the original shell tube. One end of the extention is threaded and the other is not. I have done some extensive searches on this matter and have come up empty, I just discovered this forum site and hope someone can offer some help. My intention is to make a psudo quick conversion to an M-4 for home protection.

    Thanks for your input
