Fleet Mags?

[OpusX]

Bump partly due to Specs lovely story about the origin of these three score and four.

And a serious question: What "low profile" feednecks fit on these? Preferably clamping.

They take CCM thread necks, so get a Nummech CCM/Empire stub and get a feedneck of choice

I know next to nothing about mags. What can be done to these to turn them into "sleepers?" If sleeper is the goal, is there anything that should not be altered?

Does anybody know what level of bolt is on these? Should it be upgraded? If so, where do I source the parts?

It's a mag, so it's going to get attention. The only mags I have ever seen fielded since 2007 have all been other MCB members. They just don't show up at the fields I frequent.

As far as subtle performance mods, RT on/off pin will make the trigger pull MUCH lighter and faster, and the level 10 bolt will cut down on chops, which isn't really an issue with modern loaders anyway. These all came with the level 7 bolt, and only the minimag valves could be upgraded to level 10, the "rental valves" don't have the airflow to work with a level 10 without modifing the reg piston and running higher pressures then the gun was designed for. The big issue I noticed with these bodies it the breach size is a bit too large, and the body wall is a bit too thick, so a lot of cocker detents won't quite poke into the breach deep enough to prevent double feeds, especially with the sub 0.680 paint lots of fields are selling. I think I remember that CP cocker detents tend to protrude more, so they work better, but I just had mine dual detented to eliminate the problem.

Still working on a solution to the stack clipping, which is definitely an issue I have when running small paint in these, but with a properly set up level 10 and a decent loader they only seemed to clip about one in 500 shots or so, so definitely still usable for rec play. I probably just need to experiment a bit with gluing things to the front of the level 10 foamie to fill in some of the empty space in the breach.

Last I checked you can still get level 10s and R/T on/offs straight from AGD, at least you could a few years ago when I first got mine. If they are out of stock just wait a bit and check again, Sandman does a good job of restocking parts when he can, but I think I remember hearing that his suppliers got sketchy for a bit during the pandemic.

If you wanted to go really crazy sleeper with it and do a pneumatic trigger or auto response I don't think there is anything stopping you, but those builds are outside of my level of experience, so hopefully someone else can chime in.

I so want one of these bodies. Not like I need another mag

[un2xs]

Going back over old posts shows at least a couple of empty bodies in parts bins. You could PM to see if any of them are available.

Ecapnation mentioned having an unused body....
