The barrel is still in the receiver/trunnion, and has already been chopped & crowned at 8.5”XJThrottle wrote: ↑August 5th, 2022, 11:26 am Would it just need to be as tall as the barrel is long? Would you have whatever is needed to hold the barrel?
Looks like you need a somewhat specific fixture.Az_Gunner wrote: ↑August 5th, 2022, 4:40 pmThe barrel is still in the receiver/trunnion, and has already been chopped & crowned at 8.5”XJThrottle wrote: ↑August 5th, 2022, 11:26 am Would it just need to be as tall as the barrel is long?

- I don’t have the brace or anything that goes with a press, and was hoping someone had them - if I need to I’d get whatever is needed for it to happen

The slr107ur are known to have a restrictor on the GB port not allowing the gun to cycle properly when cut from 16” to 8.5” - after cut & crown, mine ran well with a can, but wouldn’t cycle without it, even after using a booster - so I had it pressed off to allow me to drill the gas port up, allowing gas to flow properly without the can - she runs like a champ now

I just finished my 107cr recently after getting my 107ur done - picked up a 106cr a few weeks ago and my prints were received today so that’ll be next on the chopping blockMini14 wrote: ↑August 17th, 2022, 6:58 amAz_Gunner wrote: ↑August 16th, 2022, 5:38 pmThe slr107ur are known to have a restrictor on the GB port not allowing the gun to cycle properly when cut from 16” to 8.5” - after cut & crown, mine ran well with a can, but wouldn’t cycle without it, even after using a booster - so I had it pressed off to allow me to drill the gas port up, allowing gas to flow properly without the can - she runs like a champ now
Yea I overlooked that you put it back on. I’m always on the hunt for parts.
I’ll Probly have to do that to my krink when I stamp it. I think I might do my 107cr first though. Debating on the next stamp, a dedicated 556 can is sounding good right now.
