kvincent Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 (edited) Tried to search, but no joy. It appears to me that the Carrier Comp titanium tube does not use the magazine tube spring retaining clip. This is correct, right? BTW, removing the stock tube was just as easy as everyone said. Be patient, get it hot. Really hot -- but not too hot!!! Just kidding, it's easy. Mine came out with very little effort. If you have to strain, it's not hot enough. It shold unscrew with little effort. Also, alcohol and a toothbrush removed the green residue in about three seconds. It was great! Some of my IndyCar mechanic friends didn't realize that alcohol will cut through Lock-tite, but it sure does. The easiest part of the conversion was removing the residue. Thanks for the contributions, Kerry Edited April 5, 2011 by kvincent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etale Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 I certainly used the magazine retaining spring clip in my carriercomp titanium full length tube, and it functions flawlessly. What gives you the impression that this is not correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is correct, right? Kerry It should fit right in like it did in the stock tube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super M4 Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 All the mag tubes are the same inside diameter. You definitely want to re-use the mag spring retainer. You will hate yourself months later when you take the cap off to remove the barrel and that spring goes flying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kvincent Posted April 5, 2011 Author Share Posted April 5, 2011 It does. My bad, sorry. I've should have looked more closely at the original piece. Kerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
