DigCowboy 3 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 (edited) I have been lurking and learned a lot since purchasing my M4 a few months ago. Today I installed one of SOCOMguy’s (of this forum) 7 round mag tube today. When I first got a hold of him he had several black ready to roll out the door. I wanted to match my Titanium Cerakote, so he had a custom coating done and the color match is PERFECT. I just wanted to post a few pics so anyone looking at their options can see what it looks like installed. The install went smooth, thanks to being prepped with information found here. I also added the FFT forends and follower for 922R compliance. I think it took longer to get the FFT forends on than to change the magazine tube (about 20 min.). Then thanks to the instructions on FFT's site, I put the forward ends of the forends in first and installation then went smooth. I think they should put the install tip in the bag with the parts !

ButchP 20 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Looks good! Joe is a great guy. I ordered a tube from him and it is really nice. I ordered a heat gun to assist with the removal of factory tube, but read somewhere a blow dryer did the same thing so I gave it a shot and 15 min later it was off and new one was on. Needless to say in my case, didn't need the specialty heat gun. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jaason0 31 Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 So glad I saw this post. I got mine about a week ago and WOOOOOW. The match is incredible and it is just great quality. I can t imagine find a better tube than this one. It has to be very hard to get a perfect match on these tubes but I can t imagine the H20 ones getting much better. I am thoroughly impressed with the H20 one I got. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RJHUB 6 Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 How much are they(H2O)? I sent an email and waiting on reply. Are you using oriiginal spring with his tube? Thanks, Russ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SOCOMguy 7 Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 Definitely one of my tubes. I have a small shop operation, limited quantity, high quality. Helping a few guys on this forum with reasonable price tube is good .... enriching a shady third party, not good! Joe Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Evolution 84 Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 (edited) Are the threads on SOCOM GUY's tubes left in the white or are are they coated with whatever finish? Never mind...I just saw a closeup in the above pics and the threads seem to be finished. Edited March 30 by Evolution Quote Link to post Share on other sites
