I actually (almost) completed a Nitemav about a month ago. The only issue I had was getting the plunger tube to fit in the Maverick's casing. Then I got impatient , dremeled the crap out of it, and tried to do some sort of makeshift combination of the nitefinder and the maverick body... which of course failed horribly, but looks hilarious.

The tech target tube is actually slightly thinner and a bit longer, so I think it might fit easier than the nitefinder's.

Any tips or suggestions on how to get the trigger mechanism to work well? I didn't get that far last time, but it looks like it might be a bit of a pain.

Sorry to keep asking dumb questions, but I've got another one. How the heck did you get the two halves apart? I unscrewed it, but it seems like the top halves are glued or clipped together somehow. I pulled pretty hard and even tried prying it open, but nothing besides breaking the damn thing seems like it's going to work.

What are the advantages/disadvantages I should know when choosing between brass and aluminum?

It seems that most people here like to use brass, but I'd like to know why. I'm placing a large order on McMaster and aluminum is a heck of a lot cheaper. I'm not opposed to ordering the brass if it's significantly better in terms of performance, but I can think of a lot of things that I'd like to do with the money I'd save on the aluminum.

Cool. That shouldn't be too much of a problem for me at all. Thanks.

I've got one of those. You think it'll work? I don't have an easily accessible table saw.
