| Curious, I have heard you use a custom length gas tube etc for the DI 7.62X25 uppers. Any chance you sell the parts if someone wants to assemble the upper themselves? |
| I haven't done a Tok-15 in years........but it shouldn't be an issue to run a few parts.....I actually started a test batch of Magwell adapter catches ....just haven't had time to finish them What all exactly did you need? |

Assuming you are using a normal gas block, I'd need the custom length gas tube, bolt, barrel, and the magwell block. Kinda want to build it on one a Matrix Aerospace side charging upper. I'd be using primarily PPU factory or reloads, so no surplus for the most part.

|
the Gas block is a straight tube block....so you'll need it as well....barrel and bolt aren't a issue......just have to get the adapter back in production.......any chance you know what brand lower you'll be using?
I have a WIDE selection so I can make the adapter to the same maker if I have one. What length barrel did you have in mind? |

Id be good with machined magwell and pinned fillers, would rather have a that fit the mag without fillers etc but understand the cost that would be

| It is...we are retooling the gas block process from a 3 axis mill and a LOT of vises....a progressive set up...to a 4th axis process....as soon as it is runing....we'll be working on the solid model for the Tok 15 mag catch.... |

| No....Tokarev is a higher pressure round with a smaller diameter projectile.....so the gas port can be further from the chamber mouth and avoid the issues of a 9mm DI. I have built one....the problem is it actually blows chunks of jacket metal off the base of the bullet. DI 9mm just isn't practical..... |

Have orders stacked...just trying to wade through them in order.....and we did just announce the 10mm DI with the new Green Swamp Tactical large frame lower....I provided the parameters for the lower , they modeled it and made it.....and it runs perfect with 45 and 10mm

I just came across this thread.
I'm interested in an upper for burning up my surplus X25 from Kengs back in the day. I'd also need direction on what type of lower to pick up. If that lower could also play nicely with 10mm I'd be really happy. If you need my info, down/prepayment I'd be happy to supply it. Thank you and Happy New Year! |
