So I desided to make a adapter so I could use the Career probe. Now just rob a scope of something and I can use it   Posted: Sat Feb 28, 2009 2:24 am Amigo Veteran Member Joined: 18 Sep 2008 Posts: 263 Location: U.S. MidWest That looks good Kanyon.

How much room do you have to do a brake on the end of that puppy and still be able to fill it? BTW... I picked up the reamer yesterday to do the brakes... SAE 35/64" should do the trick. My parts did not show up today for the lathe... Blew out low gear again pushing the little guy too hard... So I am just taking it easy for the weekend again... Besides my back is killing me...

On a AR6 the barrel & air tube are in contact and the end cap is the same size as the air tube the barrel band fits in a recease in the end of the air tube. So for the brake to go right up to the barrel band the whole bottom would need to be milled away in a 32mm dia cord section "air tube & cap are 32mm OD" to get the cap on & off. I will PM yer the distance the brake can slide over the barrel to still let the end cap be removed & replaced while the brake is attached. In this pic the barrel end is inside to about 5mm past the grub/set screw hole   Posted: Sun Mar 01, 2009 8:23 pm yourdaddyjoe Supporting Member Joined: 26 May 2008 Posts: 4027 Location: Tatorville, USA It sure would be nice if I could afford every AG that customers wanted brakes for...

If I could only have one air gun it would be the AR6 65fpe and with a bit of work can put out 90fpe with 32gr sam yang pointed pellets. They work the same as yer 1088 crosman pistol cock the hammer or just keep pulling the trigger till the mags empty. It is best to put a lighter trigger spring in them drop them to around 45fpe but the trigger pull becomes very light in repeter mode. And they are built like a brick sh!t house... There is not any plastic in them ANYWHERE the olny plastic yer get with yer AR6 is the raping in the box.   Posted: Sun Mar 01, 2009 10:09 pm yourdaddyjoe Supporting Member Joined: 26 May 2008 Posts: 4027 Location: Tatorville, USA The Evanix Renegade Carbine model is what is turning my head... I am just a sucker for a Carbine... _________________ Say "NO" to BB Gun Wars...
