Darth Hilarious Posted August 11, 2012 Report Share Posted August 11, 2012 (edited) People have replaced the barrel retaining screws with real ones. I have no idea what size they are, but that doesn't matter, because... There they are. $2 each. Which holes haven't been drilled? A picture could be worth a thousand words.

Marv Posted August 11, 2012 Report Share Posted August 11, 2012 I think he means the vent holes in the barrel itself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted August 11, 2012 Report Share Posted August 11, 2012 I have read a couple of posts with the holes in the folding stock are drilled with a flat tipped drill bit but only shallow drilled to give the illusion of there being holes but still having the strength for the glueing.

skyone Posted August 11, 2012 Report Share Posted August 11, 2012 (edited) i will use screws to mount the folding stock on pvc pipe, not glue Edited August 11, 2012 by skyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evilboy[501st] Posted August 12, 2012 Report Share Posted August 12, 2012 If you are talking about the nuts at the end of the barrel and the bottom of the grip, yes. see my WIP here http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=19500&hl=&fromsearch=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used 1/4-20 Socket Head Screws. See my build thread- http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=19872 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
