KP pics and questions, even a little WTB

angelpena · 06-19-2007, 09:26 PM

So I got my KP, and did a little spit and polish on it,

First hurdle is the lug that holds the stock on, spins in place, how do I secure this? it looks like there is some solder on the inside?

Second, I'm going to tap it for CA, does anyone have instructions on how to do this, I will probably use a dummy so i can use 12 grams if I want to.

the parts I will need are a

1.dummy 12gram, and the ASA

2.Pump arm

3. Bolt, Cooper-T if you got one...

Nice polish...I like it

I was thinking more about that feed...and with it up there you may find aiming a bit easier...allowing you to get your face behind it without the classic KP-Tilt..

I would suggest making the feed tube only long enough so a 10rounder can slip in and reload you...less chance of breaky breaky

CA...hmmmm what tank configuration are you thinking??? could you get away with the KP-3 air out the front?

For the feed, I don't like having to remove a 10 round tube and then replace one, so the feed gate/pvc thing should work, I'll trim it down to hold 12-13 rounds, and then use heat shrink to hold it on securely.

For the air, I'm thinking a PPS style drop, and a 3.5.

I'm not sure I want a long air line coming out the front, and then I still have a 3.5 mounting issue, but that would be easiest.

So I guess I'm open to a kp3 air adapter too....

My friend had Palmers do the Ca on his kp3. He is very happy with it.

See the problem with that is..... once it goes to PPS I figure I may as well, get a detent and wegits, and since I'm getting those I may as well get a 13 round spring feed, and why not a performance tune and quick strip bolt...and since all that is getting done I may as well get it re-barreled, and since it has a shiny new barrel I may as well get it nickled.....

Right....and if you are going to do all that, why not just go Scratch built and have 2 guns.

Yeah! 2 double barreled guns!

Dammit Gene, you aren't helping....

any ideas on that spinning lug?

Your spinning lug. How about a crush washer on the outside of the tube next to the lug.

Your spinning lug- is the 'pringle' screw rotating?
