37thguy Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 I'm looking for a replacement tube for my buddies M4. Benelli and Compcarrier? are more than he wants to pay. I saw a place called Dave Metal Works. They have one in Chrome Molly for $75. Anyone know about these? Thanks Quote
BLACK Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 (edited) I've got one. It doesn't fit. Specifically it 'pulls' the barrel nut away and the nut binds (won't come off). I'm assuming the tube is warped or something along those lines. I can't speak for any of Daves other tubes but mine sure doesn't work. Its in the bottom of a box collecting dust. Found This And This One Don't know anything about either one. Edited February 7, 2014 by BLACK Quote
Vertigofirearms Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 Ehh, I own one of the Dave Metal Works Magazine tubes on my M1014. For what it is, it works. I mean seriously, it is just a metal tube threaded on both ends with a tapered shoulder. I had an issue using it on my M2, but SOCOMGUY's Magazine tube threads are perfect for my needs. Correct Pitch and diameters. Like I said for what it is, it works. ALSO Is it just me, or does the first link magazine tube look a little proportional to a 5 rounder? Quote
Sharkey Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 I've got one on mine and not a single issue. I also have one of his bolt release pads which is an excellent design with no worried about wearing it out. Simple and works great. Mag tube went on perfectly and not a single complaint. I think he puts out great stuff. Quote
Unobtanium Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 I bought an OEM replacement full-length tube from Numrich. It was $109. That is what went on my first M4S90 years ago, and it worked perfectly. Total OEM apperance and fit. Quote
M2_shootr Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 I used a Benelli mag tube on mine,.....once I oiled it, it was a perfect match to the barrel. Quote
12508 Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 If you want 922r parts count go SOCOMGUY or Freedom Fighter Tactical. If you aren't worried about parts count, go Benelli. Quote
M2_shootr Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 I was after the M1014 look.......the Benelli tube was my choice. i used FFT follower, trigger, disconnector and hammer for 922R compliance. i do plan on trying a Geissele hammer in the future. Quote
