So today we are going to talk about fitting issues...
Almost all fitting issues come from your locking bolts as you can see here. Every barrel has
a pair of locking bolts in it, they are just these little black things that stick out.
When you put your barrel on your frame. There are two common types of miss fitting
(Get the barrel in the frame here, come on...) The first one is... If you are trying to close
the barrel and it will not close down as you can see this one did. but if it usually gets
stuck somewhere around here. Like this...
That means your locking bolts are too big... So they are not and they want slide down the
frame on lock down. The other type is they lock down completely.
Which means the locking bolts are too small... And the way to tell if they are too small
is if you can wiggle the barrel on the frame in any direction, then the locking bolts are
too small. So those are the two most common types of
fitting issues. The ways to tell your locking bolts are the
proper size is: A - if you *** the hammer - if you can ***
the hammer then you know that they are locking down far enough.
B - Your release here should have a little bit of a brake in it before it hits the locking
bolts. If it doesn't then they are locking down all the way and that means they are too
small. But it should have a little tiny brake in here no more than an 8th of an inch of
the frame and that is how you can tell if you can tell if you have a good set of locking
bolts in your barrel. OK That's all there is to it... (Question
to MGM-Craig) Do you set every barrel with a frame?
Ya we do fit every barrel to a frame, before we ship them. But not all frames fit the exactly
same so that is where most of the issues come from.
