smoker 01 Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 (edited) I have a question I have a IMM Open SV that I like very much. Now I want to buy a new IMM Open so I can take my older gun as a backup gun to the many matches where I go to. In my old IMM the compensator is shrinkt on the barrel is this still the same way with the new IMM's or is it threated on by the latest IMM's Edited February 27, 2011 by smoker 01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoshidaex Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 (edited) Might be easiest to find out by calling Brandon over at SVI. He or any of the other sales staff have info pertinent to your IMM just by entering the serial number into their computer.

Loki999 Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 I am wondering what are the pro's of à threaded barrel and comp. Only bennefit i can think of that you can switch between compensaters more easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warpspeed Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 I have an opengun with threaded barrel and i have to put locktight on it 5 times à year because the comp.gets loose. Try using the green loctite. It is for bearing sleeves and will not come loose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aircooled6racer Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Hello: You can drill and tap for a setscrew on the comp. 6-32 works well. Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpl Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 I have an opengun with threaded barrel and i have to put locktight on it 5 times à year because the comp.gets loose. Check and see where the slide is hitting the comp. No way it should be coming loose if it has loc-tite on it. And Green is the best, #648. It will take a lot of heat to remove the comp it you want to, much more than the gun can generate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
