Ledpocket Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 Ledpocket, if you find how to make a reliable inner barrel bushing for the ucdp2 let me know. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Do you mean the stupid o-ring/funny shaped plastic thing/spring? (speaking of the parts from the series 80. The v10/raptor had a brass ring instead of the funny plastic) I'll let you know how it goes with mine, and if I have any bright ideas when it doesn't work Link to post Share on other sites
Mathub Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 Well SCW3 comes with the brass ring, same as SCW1 and 2. Magnatech version comes with the plastic thingy. Prime one piece barrel is so hollown that the inner barrel points toward the ground when gun put horizontaly. You'll know what I mean. Link to post Share on other sites

phoenix360mute Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 am in need of help from a few of the guys in here, got a frame of above poster a while ago, but it seems all attempts to get the grip screw things that go in the frame have unfourtunalty failed rather misserably, anyone here got any spare?? also, can someone please tell me what the hell they are called, i have no clue Link to post Share on other sites
r.ocelot Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 (edited) grip screw bushing? grip screw holders? I'd offer up the one's on my pgc kit, but they're on the other side of the pond...somewhere. Would this thing work? Edited June 19, 2007 by r.ocelot Link to post Share on other sites
phoenix360mute Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 pic dont work, got a link Link to post Share on other sites
r.ocelot Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 Does it work now? Link to post Share on other sites
phoenix360mute Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 yeah, but they dont look right to me, i thought they were flat and then potrudred outwards with a thread on the inside,, thats got a thread on the out side ?? Link to post Share on other sites
r.ocelot Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 Yeah, that's why I'm not sure if they'll work. Might be able to thread them onto the frame, but doesn't look like there's enough surface area. Link to post Share on other sites
hardboiledcop Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 Wrong thread buddy. Give the 2011 thread a try. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> But.. he posted a stock V10.. how's that a 2011? Link to post Share on other sites
r.ocelot Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 Notice the time of his edit...he posted a SVI 6" hybrid before. Link to post Share on other sites
Ledpocket Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 The continuing CDP2 saga: The magna barrel bushing didn't fit, so I made one. Made it just smaller than the inner diameter of the outer barrel. Made a long spring guide. Still needs the slide catch slotted out for scw vs the magna and a little more frame/slide fitting. Still getting the hang of all the settings on my digicam Link to post Share on other sites

ViciousV10s Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 Nice work indeed Led, that puppy is slick! Link to post Share on other sites
the cleaner Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 Led.. looks great! Is your barrel bushing/spacer press-fit into your outer or inner barrel? so the inner barrel lies concentric. . Link to post Share on other sites
Ledpocket Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 Nope. I used the same groove/oring arrangement to hold it in there. Found a new spring that didn't have the flare. Made the bushing to .347"OD and .326" ID. and maybe .25" long. Outer barrel ID is .450" Inner Barrel OD is .316" (at least that's what I remember the dimensions to be) I did notice that my inner barrel didn't really flop around inside the prime outer. Maybe they made the through hole a bit smaller on my piece? I can't say for sure if my bushing will work because I have yet to work out the stickiness of the action...

hardboiledcop Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 Very nice look, but make sure that when you sand down the gun and polish it, always do it in one direction (ie toward the rear of the gun).. Link to post Share on other sites
RT-XSTEAM Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 yes i notice that was a problem. it´s not as easy as it seems. Another problem is the metal, isn´t great and after removing the paint it shows. Link to post Share on other sites
hardboiledcop Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 if you do all the front facing parts first (inside the trigger, the front strap, dustcover etc) and sand them all downwards with wet-n-dry or some other fine grain sandpaper. then do the sides with a large sheet of the same paper, going from front to back, you should be able to get a very nice finish, and get rid of most of the discrepancies in the finish.. You might need to use some sort of sealent to stop it tarnishing.. Anyone have any idea of a sealent that stop pot-metal oxidising? I'm looking for some too.. Link to post Share on other sites
r.ocelot Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 I'd just let the WA potmetal tarnish, and wipe off the brown stuff that comes up. Looks pretty decent IMO. Link to post Share on other sites

Looks pretty decent IMO. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> How about TM pot-metal.. and it has to match (in lightness at least) a glass-beaded/anodized slide.. Link to post Share on other sites
r.ocelot Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 A while back (late 06 i think), there was a guy who made a TM STI executive. He sanded the controls, let it tarnish, and it matched the SD slide and frame pretty well. Link to post Share on other sites
