ehinote2187[TK] Posted October 11, 2015 Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 Hello, everyone. I've hit a snag in my building. I have an old AM kit, and the thermal detonator is made up of 2 halves of molded plastic instead of a pipe, endcaps, faceplate. CRL no longer accepts the halves as one of them has 2 molded squares on it for clip attachment, and I've been trying like hell to find a replacement pipe for my detonator. Problem is, 2" pipe is too small for the endcaps to fit properly, and 2 1/2" pipe is the same exact diameter as the endcaps, so they don't slip over the pipe. Does anyone know a source for 2 1/4" pipe? Does anyone know a source for a new detonator assembly? I'm coming close to the completion of my armor and want to get this sorted out. Thank you!

WhiteNight[TK] Posted October 12, 2015 Report Share Posted October 12, 2015 You could ask Paul (Troopermaster) if he has currently a run on detonators. You can ask for crisp or worn, just as you like. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spoon Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 I don't know how practical this is, but if you can't find what you are looking for, you could try spinning down some 2 1/2" pipe on a lathe then sand it smooth? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehinote2187[TK] Posted October 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 Yeah. I just need to find a lathe. That thought has crossed my mind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
