Resurrection feedneck OD

[Nish]

I have an empire springfeed. What size pipe is needed to attach these bad boys to a gun?

Same question asked differently, what is the OD of the piece that the feedneck on the resurrection attached to?

Jordan, I believe he might know. I think I sold him an Empire feed at one point.

Nominally, 7/8". But... Empire feedneck stubs have a groove machined into them to "capture" the feedneck. The groove is a smaller diameter. If you feel inside the feedtube end of your springfeed you'll see what I mean - there's a lip.

You can either dremel that lip off, or get the gun you're putting it on modified to accept Empire spec feednecks.

Here's a PDF for the spec for the Empire feedneck stub

^this is correct.

Nish If you end up wanting to have something cut to have the groove so it doesn't come off, I should be able to make that happen.

For now I've hit the hardware store to make an adaptor to plop it down into any feedneck but I might take you up on that as it's a bit higher on my old fracer than I would like. I appreciate the offer and will keep it in mind if this is fun enough that I want to run with it but doesn't quite work well enough.
