Tyrel Cody Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Now that they are legal, anyone know where to get one or have one made? I've asked a couple of sources and was told the CF was too expensive to mess with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sedalia Dave Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Wonder how the magazine cap is secured. I do know that if you get any of the individual fibers in your skin you’ll never do it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Coffinmaker Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Really expensive solution in search of a problem. PLUS ONE for Sedalia Dave too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozark Shark Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 I'm in no hurry with this one. From the other post on cf tubes, I share Flying Shootist's concern in the event of a chain fire in the tube magazine. Having experienced cf becoming razor blades in auto accidents, I think he has raised a valid concern that needs to be tested. Check out video. Those shards will cut tires.

Tequila Shooter Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 I’d still like to know where to get the knurled mag tube screw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The individual who requested the ROC ruling made it himself to replace a damaged part. It is NOT a production item. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colorado Coffinmaker Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Tyrel, I well understand your desire. Quite understandable. However, there are two other, much cheaper solutions. 1). A new OEM part. 2). A shiny new BRASS item from Slix. However, without the use of an Anti-Seize lubricant, NONE of the replacements will be satisfactory. Conversely, a replacement CF magazine tube would require no Anti-Seize application. I can also see where a Carbon Fiber tube of correct internal dimension for .38 or 32-20 could be VERY desirable. Expensive, but desirable. I shoot Henrys, so don't really have do Dog in the fight. HAPPY HOLLIDAYS - - Stay Safe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HAPPY HOLLIDAYS - - Stay Safe All of my 73's and 66's will have knurled endcaps, before I'm done. Fine if I need anti seize and fine with the cost; its just what I like. I'd probably just put the CF tube on one rifle, mainly just to say I have one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
