Ls Quick Open Mod

04 June 2009 - 10:02 PM

Time to share a mod with the people here..

Ever get tired of removing 22 screws over and over again each time you want mod and test your LS ?
Then you end up with either less or even more screws than you started with?
Better yet you end up eating up the screw heads clean and now its stuck ?

Solution:
Remove all 22 screws and keep them aside or you can melt them down and make a giant screw pendant like i did.

Tools:
Dremel / Drill and small drill bit ( sizing TBA and depends on your screws )

Parts:
9 stainless steel screws (various lengths) and nuts

Extras:
Nerves of steel because drilling through your gun takes balls and patience to work your dremel or drill and get it straight..


How to:

Choose 6 strategic points on the main guns and 3 on the butt.
These points are where you once had to use the standard screws.
These points basically hold the gun together even with only the 6 screws in place.
You can cock the gun and load clips and all that and the gun will work fine.
I will post a pic of the points on the gun.

Now take a drill bit and drill through the gun and make sure make a clean exit through the other end.
Do this for all 9 points.
Take your stainless steel screws and nuts and start placing them through the holes and placing the nuts
inside the holes
where the screw heads once sat.
Tighten them and you will notice that the nuts will sit inside the holes snugly and you need to only turn the bolts to
tighten and loosen
them.
So now you need only an allen tool to remove screws and having 9 screws its a lot faster and simpler too.

Hope this helps

** You can always use more screws but it found that these 9 has been sufficient and the gun works with no problems at all
