IMBLITZVT Posted February 22 Report Share Posted February 22 Bob does this have a 08/15 feedblock in it? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRMCII Posted February 22 Author Report Share Posted February 22 Not now. I finally got into my snowbound storage unit and retrieved an 08 part. I put the 08/15 part in for the pics so as not to leave an empty hole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waterdawg2000 Posted February 22 Report Share Posted February 22 Bob Do you have any spare parts for 08/15 locks. I need a lock pin that for my 08/15 lock and also a spare pin just in case. Thanks for any info. See this link for pics of broken pin. https://www.machinegunboards.com/forums/index.php?/topic/29479-maxim-0815-broken-lock-pin-wtk-correct-size-pin-to-replace/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRMCII Posted February 22 Author Report Share Posted February 22 Yes, I have pins. Whether the ones I have will fit properly is unknown. Measure the OD of the broken pin and I'll can see if I have one close in OD. They can be pretty tight! In my opinion, it is better to find a replacement short pin rather than shorten a long one. The long pins are scarce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
