A gift, but can I make this Rainmaker functional? - Page 2

NoX board. I thought it looked familiar. It's aftermarket and you'll have to look on the board or check the different Nox board manuals to match it up. Nice board actually. Here's one...

The HPRs got blamed for a lot of problems and small ports don't help. Before you get around to firing it up the first time, make sure you start with five pairs of spring washers in the HPR stack as shown in the manual (kind of). Mine was short a pair and probably would have slow fired fine, but the shorter, stiffer stack will not open the port as wide.

Actually, I guess one or both of your HPRs are gutted as volumizers.

It's funny the different frame castings have the same number cast into them.

You should probably just buy a detent from JT parts. I started to make a new one because my old one looked like a really bad design. As I started checking the dimensions, I realized it was just squeezed and pushed into the wrong slot. After trying to return it to it's original position, it seems to do ok.

You guys are great! Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you from the bottom of my unenlightened heart

Poop, I think my project is sunk. I don't have the valve stem assembly. Rats.

Where are you at? [Where're yat?]

I have a spare since I made a fatter one.

And if this be the case, you will need to run a different HPR. You could attach that Mag V/A to the front of the trig frame, set up a standard foregrip regulator and run a line to the backblock.

Like so:

Believe it or not, this was actually mine at one point. I never got it to work...good luck.

Kevin, you Oregon local? This thing is being harsh. I'm about to just dump it in the fishtank and let the guppies play with it. . .

No, I'm actually from Michigan. I let this go probably 2 or 3 years ago at least. Probably more than that.
