BigAl Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 And they had to ruin it with a bloody rail! Wish the barrels where interchangable like the real one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Horsem4n Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 Technically they are, but it would require ASG to release the other barrels as spare parts. I really like the 4 inch model. I'm going to email ASG to see if they'd consider selling me the parts. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MODDAN Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 Has anyone got any concrete information on which shells actually works with the 715? I recently went into a local store and tried the copper tipped shells for Dan Wesson revolvers, but they interfered with the rotation of the cylinder. They do, however, work with the old, horribly ugly ASG Dan Wessons. Will the new Gun Heaven silver tipped shells work with the 715? If so: is there anyway of getting hold of the copper tip as a separate item for that realistic look? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Horsem4n Posted January 20, 2017 Report Share Posted January 20, 2017 Idk, the standard plastic tipped ones work just fine. I've got like 4 sets of shells, 3 new one old, and they all work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Doc_Glock Posted January 22, 2017 Report Share Posted January 22, 2017 @Cesare Hi! Would you care to share, how you got rid of those ugly ASG markings. By grinding or chemically, or a combo of both? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Horsem4n Posted January 28, 2017 Report Share Posted January 28, 2017 (edited) I've got some wear showing up on mine that I don't know yet how I'm going to deal with. The forcing cone is starting to become deformed from the cylinder hitting it and the latching points on the cylinder (for the bolt) are starting to mushroom out. Really, it's only seen one game, but a lot of fondling also. Forgot to get a pic of the slight mushroom on the bolt indexing notches, but I got one of the forcing cone. https://goo.gl/photos/uuC9jaaGAhfDZevRA Edited January 28, 2017 by Horsem4n Quote Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted January 29, 2017 Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 You can reduce the length of the forcing cone so that it doesn't go as deeply into the front of the chambers, also that will thicken the area at the end. You may need to give the inner barrel a wider chamfer though to compensate for any alignment issues. The same goes for the cylinder stops. You'll lose time as they mushroom further out, but there should be an equilibrium point where they eventually stop and just compensate with chamfering the inner barrel's mouth. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cesare Posted January 29, 2017 Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 @-Doc No mystery just dremmel with soft brush then 000 and a rubber towel. But there is still a faint shadow of the laser engraving but only in certain angles. I would warn you about going too deep since right underneath a thin layer of some sort of nickel plating it looks like copper. I guess you probably could add some shiny chrome finish but not sure of how to get the same finish as the rest. So probably you then have to refinish the whole gun.

Doc_Glock Posted January 30, 2017 Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 @Cesare Thank you! I've done it, and I used autosol chrome polish paste with my dremel and a soft cloth polish head. I used it with great caution and several times and I managed to get rid of most of it. Can still see some shadow though from some angles, as you mentioned. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Doc_Glock Posted February 4, 2017 Report Share Posted February 4, 2017 (edited) Ok! here's the end result of a hand polished Dan Wesson 715. Taken with my old phone so not the best image quality, but I hope it will suffice. And thank's Cesare for the inspiration.

Brigg Posted February 7, 2017 Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 Wow, it's really a shame they ruined the new 4" model with the world's ugliest rail. I would have bought a 4" even though I own 2 of the 6" models. That rail is really atrocious. It doesn't fit the shape of the barrel at all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted February 7, 2017 Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 That rail is really atrocious. It doesn't fit the shape of the barrel at all. Fixed! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
