Hey my a+ clamping lowrise just came in today and i was wondering what was the safest way to take my current stock rise off my speed so i can put my a+ lowrise in without stracthing either of the rises up (or atleast the a+ one). Thanks

I just did a quick search and found about 10 threads about low rise feedneck ect. Easily you could ahve searched and asked any question in and one of those threads.

I used the Halo method. Take an Un-sanded halo and jam it in the feedneck. Then start twisting. Worked for me. If it doesn't for you, use a hairdryer and strap wrench.

that would take the top part off, so you can change the gated feed...if it works for you, then you have one f***ed up locktited feed

yea baby halo method ownz all! im just sanding my halo down to fit but when i test to see if it fits yet when i twist it around it just takes out the rise anyways, didnt even mean for it to happen. but i cant get the top part of the rise off, i think i just screwed that on real tight when twisting my revvy around in there, because before that it came out easily. no point to take it out yet so o well.

BTW is it possible to screw in the rise too far and then scratch the bolt when u shoot?
