Plating some little detent covers

Looks good. Your last build was killer especially the dual five round feed with the quick feed to top it off! I have a quick question, I have a pmi that needs a front nutsert replaced. But I only have the flush mount type. The original one sticks up above the surface which I thought was to help locate the frame and keep it from moving when you are pumping the marker. Would you know what the original type is called or recommend one that you use. Thanks

Also I'm still working on that second double, should be done soon though.

[Cal440]

Thanks again

[JeeperCreeper]

If it gives you too much trouble, send it my way. I'll get you fixed up.

Plating some little detent covers

[JeeperCreeper]

Can you guess which one I side tapped?

Just gotta clean these up, reassemble the complete one, and send these back to jdgreen76

Trying to do something to distract myself. I've been having back pain for 2 days now, so I am behind on sending out orders. Sorry for the delay.
Anyway, I made a detent for the brass Sterling. I also stripped the body again. Now I'm making it a brass Sterling VSC. I'll probably go with a brass hardline. I'm going to chop up a rear ASA, and drill and tap a new fitting on the side of it for a cleaner hard line. Then I still need to tune it, and maybe I'll use it at Slims.

Double trouble. I need to make one for me.

Its like my Fast Feed Lite, the wire detent moves when the tube is inserted. On this build, I was able to hide that detent in the middle. It took me a few tries to get the geomerty right, but it works great now.

gGot it, teh detent is to prevent balls coming out the back, not from traveling in between the tubes 😅

[JeeperCreeper]

It definitely does both of those things

[JeeperCreeper]

Making that double shine. I still got lots of parts to polish.

I started a new day job, so shop time is limited again for now. I'm a bit behind on everything, but I'm trying to catch up.

[Cal440]

Good luck hope it works out and you like it!

[JeeperCreeper]

Back in the shop finally. It just feels right.

A little double detent action for today.
