ANS GenX with Benchmark frame

[otar]

Just picked this up and will be hopefully getting it back in order and out on the field soon.

Just wanted to show off and see if anyone had any info on exactly what I've got and what's going on with the benchmark ASA stuff. I found it interesting the velocity adjuster is held in place by the beavertail screw and must adjust a second piece internally.

So far the ram is leaking bad, so I'll post more photos when I disassemble it all.

Pre2k Autococker, the velocity adjuster slides in and is held in place by that screw. It is not threaded for the screw in type IVG.

Benchmark drops were common at the time. You can get an asa that mounts to the dovetail and the thumbscrews lock it in place. You can switch it to either side and it makes the tank offset accordingly.

Ahhh I don't know how I didn't realize it's just mounting the ASA on its side lol. Thanks for the info

If that still has the OEM ANS ram it is not rebuildable take it off remove it throw it in the trash and replace it.

Ok got it all apart and swapped all the o-rings. The LPR reg seat was mush so I'm waiting on those AGD reg seats from ANS to hopefully fit...

Got the new reg seat in and got it all buttoned up. Now I just need some air to dial it in.
