  1. When that happens, I have, thoughout the years, been thankful for my Dremel tool.

     

    I would gradually take my grinding bit and shave down the offending side.

     

    I mark with some powder and fit the pieces. Whichever piece has powder contact, then I grind that down.

     

    I finish with Aluminum blue or Oxpho blue.

     

    I have done this with many parts. A manufacturer can't be perfect. This is not aerospace.

     

    I did this recently with my Surfire M80 aluminum foreend rail.

  2. My mods are as follows:

     

    Socom guy mag tube

    Wolf universal shotgun magazine spring

    PMT large bolt handle

    Mesa 6 shot side saddle

    Nordic components barrel band clamp

    Surefire M80 rail forend

    Sure X 300 light with paddle switch.

     

     

    Duggan:

     

    The large release pad. Is that just a drill and tap?

  3. Buy a full length 7 round tube. Do NOT buy a +2 extension ... you will just end up buying a full length tube later and your extension will sit unused.

     

    The only reason to really buy a +2 over a full length tube is if you're cheap as ****, or want to swap back your 5+limiter tube for some reason ... which you can still do with a full length tube if you don't loctite it into place, like I haven't.

     

    Those tubes in your first link look a lot like socomguys tubes (he may sell through them, who knows). Get one of those, or one from socomguy in his thread here.

    +1 But if you want my 2 round extension, you can have it for shipping cost. $10

     

    It's the tw round tube, an spring and the coupler. I had the tube type III hard anodized, cause the original finish was BS.

  4. It's usually for gloved hand work.

     

    Hard to find a small safety when you have gloves on for the cold and are under stress.

     

    The enlarged safetys protrude a lot more so you can index it with your gloved finger easily.

     

    There is a noticible difference once you try a gun with the large safety vs none, WITH GLOVED HANDS.

     

    Had one on my old Benelli and Rem 870, but cannot find one for the M4.

     

    Otherwise, the stock safety, I agree, it's easy to index with you fingers.

  5. The men in white suits are on their way.

     

     

    NOOOO! They were here last week. How do you know?!?!?!

     

    Did you send them?

     

    I cannot stand the restraints again, being in isolation, the injections, the electro convulsive thereapy, or my psychiatrist.

  6. I went with the stock Benelli M1 S90 spring b/c I am a sucker for OEM stuff and have NEVER heard of an M1 S90 having issues.

     

     

    I doubt the stock spring would ever have an issue. That's the problem. Im battling my logical mind vs. my paranoid and instant gratification mind.

  7. Just wanted to say that I got the tube. I'm happy with the fit to the reciever. It's tight with the blue loctite applied, but fit perfectly once I used two hands and muscled it past the binding point.

     

    The finish is perfect. Happy that it's made with quality materials.

     

    Functions fine. I added the Wolf universal shotgun spring to it, and cut out 4 coils. Stiffer than stock, by a hair, but will compress onced used often.

     

    Thank you for making these and the service you provide.

  8. Reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where the girl walks in on George after a cold shower and see's, well......... Shrinkage. he he

     

    Anyway, I went to the Wolf Spring site and bought their universal shotgun spring and cut out about 4 inches. Then inserted and fired. Worked well.

     

    Now I have taken care of my unfounded paranoia of the stock spring failing. It's all done for the satisfaction of my mind, more than the performance gain acquired.

  9. If anyone is near Long Beach, CA and need to have their mag tube removed, I'll do it for them.

     

    I have a truck with a power socket in the back, and can meet you somewhere to remove the tube. Just pay me for lunch.

     

    The camper shell should hide all signs of illicit activity. he he eh.

     

    My moving sniping platform.

  10. It's hard, but meant to be some effort to pull, cuase it's combat gun. Most military arms have bad trigger pulls.

     

    Guess they don't want a hair trigger when adrenaline is flooding the body.

  11. Good show man... nice of you to help out a gunner.

     

     

    We may have our differences in opinions, but we're all gunners and must stick together.

     

    Gun people are some of the best folks that I know. It's the small minority of idiots that make the rest look bad.
