Dye DM7 Feedneck

[Sl1d3r]

i have purchased a colour kit for my DM7 but can i buggery get the stock feedneck to unscrew.

is there an almighty trick to it or do you need to find some sort of mythical greek god to unscrew it for you?

thank you and goodnight

Much love

A mythical greek god will normally help!

Though I did accidently unscrewed mine when i was cleaning the breach. I stuck a microfibre cloth down the feedneck and started rotating it, and the feedneck came out. Was well happy

Hi

Some tricks include tightening it down as much as possible on a loader then turn the loader to unscrew it.

If you do not need the feedneck afterwards as this can bend the ' fingers ' a bit I have found that popping the collar off and using a kitchen knife in the ' fingers ' usually gives you enough leverage.

If you don't need the feedneck afterwards or damage it give me a shout as I will be after one for a little project I have in the pipe lines......

Good solid metal ruler or bread knife, put in the slots and rotate the gun not the feedneck, I've done 100's of them, some have loctite on but not the strong stuff.
