Help fitting a barrel to a Pro Carb - Page 2

Eric, I have an old foregrip if you want one to experiment on. You can have it for a pod of paint the next time we play

AtaraxicEric · 02-05-2008, 12:47 PM

Yeah that'll work - you coming out on the 23rd? If so I'll just mod this grip and use that for stock or more tinkering...

...and Brinstar those pictures in that link were broken lol but i found then in another place on the same sight. The combat feed looks REALLY easy to make honestly so that's a good consideration. Only thing is, I love the grip on the pro carb - we'll see. If I do anything radical I'll post pictures...

I'm not 100% sure if I'm coming out the 23rd or not, but probably. I will say this, the one I have has a funky "camo" paintjob, so its not exactly pretty. But I think th epaint would come off pretty easily, and besides that its in pretty ghood shape.

Either that or nothing a little rustoleum can't hide. Hopefully we'll run into each other at LVP, if not then EMR for sure.

Odd, the pictures on that link still work fine for me.

There used to be a few sites with pro/carb DIY mods, but they've been sucked into the void.

The pro/carb owners group might be worth taking a look at for you. It looks like at least firstout is still active over there, so you should be able to get any help you need on that and other mods.
Pro/Carbine Owners Group :: Index

The only thing resembling information that I could come across on the combat feed any more is this thread, but all the links in there are dead as well.
Pro/Carbine Owners Group :: View topic - Combat feeds?

Good luck! I sure had fun with my pro/carb while I had it, and after the current owner added an RT kit to it, it's even more groovy.

Have you thought about taking the forearm and cutting the top part off. Kind of a U shape then you still have the regular stock feed, and the stock foregrip. And because there is nothing to keep a a-5 barrel from threading in then you could essentially use it. Kind of like what wevo has for the phantom to take a freak back

Not to hijack, but that carb with the JCS stock and RVA on it is sweet! Are A5 or 98 back caps compatible with the carb??

No they require modification. I know some people that has modded some but I cant begin to guess how.

There is actually a procarbine forum and the dude that started it up has done the mods. You could probably find some info there.

Hey Jiu-jitsu Fighter, thanks for the extra bit... I thought about that after i saw this but I think I'll stick with the mod I did so far and grab another grip to chop...
