kmc0929 Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 (edited) Full length US made M4 magazine tube in a parkerized finish. Tube is stamped US very small near the base of the threads. Matches the receiver really well. Comes with Wolff performance mag spring. $100 Edited November 2, 2011 by kmc0929 Quote
StrangerDanger Posted November 2, 2011 Posted November 2, 2011 Is it a carriercomp, SOCOM or FFT tube? If it's a carriercomp tube, I'll take it. Quote
kmc0929 Posted November 2, 2011 Author Posted November 2, 2011 I honestly have no clue. I am positive it's not carrier comp. Fit and finish is great, the only markings on the tube are "US" very small at the receiver end. Quote
StrangerDanger Posted November 2, 2011 Posted November 2, 2011 Is it steel or titanium? Steel would likely be SOCOM. Titanium other than carriercomp would be FFT. Quote
StrangerDanger Posted November 2, 2011 Posted November 2, 2011 DMW also makes a full length steel tube for the M4. Quote
Unobtanium Posted November 2, 2011 Posted November 2, 2011 Could be anything, but $100 is a good deal as long as it's not cardboard, lol Quote
HopetonBrown Posted November 2, 2011 Posted November 2, 2011 It's probably a Daves Metal Works. They retail for $75. Quote
kmc0929 Posted November 2, 2011 Author Posted November 2, 2011 not daves, i asked him, his aren't marked us. Quote
d Posted November 2, 2011 Posted November 2, 2011 Could be anything, but $100 is a good deal as long as it's not cardboard, lol Oh that is classic Unobtanium, There are a few manufacturers out there, most important is check the lengh and make sure the threads are a true straight cut and not modified acme (or at least a very good modified acme.)

kmc0929 Posted November 2, 2011 Author Posted November 2, 2011 SOLD! Threads did thread on very smooth and yes it was steel. Quote
SOCOMguy Posted November 2, 2011 Posted November 2, 2011 I was just about to pipe in ... All my FL tubes are marked with "U S" and a batch number stamped on the collar at the receiver end. Also I never did straight parkerizing, all the tubes have been "gun kote" "diamond- kote" polymer finish most matte black color. And yes, a square cut thread. I still have tubes, and receintly reduced the price to $145 including shipping. Joe B [email protected] Quote
d Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 And yes, a square cut thread. [email protected] I have one of yours and the threads are as good if not better then the OEM. Some manufactures skimp because the square thread is harder to tap (or so I have heard.) Regards, -d Quote
SOCOMguy Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 Thank you "d" , appreciate the good words. I do my best to make a quality product.... may have been the first to make the M4 FL tubes, been at it about 5 years now. And yes doing a true square form thread took a bit of development work.
