BigBamBoo Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 I was planning on putting a sling stud on my forend. But after looking at it, I am not sure now. First i was going to use one with a nut on the bolt end of he stud. And this would need to be countersunk on the inside of the for end. The problem is the end of the forend is enclosed around the mag tube for about 3" or so. So to countersink the nut you would have to drill through the top of the enclosed part. Not that big of a deal, but not sure if I want to do that. Next....where I like to hold the forend is right about where I would want the sling stud. So.....??? Looking to hear from other folks and their ideas. Take care,Stan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soup101 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 I'm thinking about putting a Noveske Flush QD sling mount on the forend. I taped the nut to the inside of the forend where I want it and it seems to clear everything fine when the forend is in place. If I decide to do it I will post my results.

12bar Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 The Noveske QD flush mount looks promising. Unfortunately Noveske and Midway out of stock ($19.99). Optics Planet supposedly in stock ($27.99???that's a bit of a mark up..........) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12bar Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 For those with the 303 Arms slings how do they attach to the gun? QD or? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Murphy Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Just ordered one. I almost feel like one of the cool kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkCO Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Just ordered one. I almost feel like one of the cool kids. You mean you just ordered the LAST one...at least of the first production run. Hope to have more ready next month. The VersaTube makes your shotgun cool, so the feeling is warranted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suesstech Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 (edited) Replaced the +3 with a +2, super solid: https://www.dropbox.com/s/pwgfzeyl5x9jgs2/20130329_193732.jpg Edited March 30, 2013 by suesstech Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3lug Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 One of the lucky ones to get the Carbon Arms extended tubes for my Versa Max. Actually, it arrived at my house before my shotgun. I got the tube last week and the gun today. Tomorrow is the swap over. Looking forward to trying it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DHart Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 I've never been much of a fan of mag extensions, much preferring long one-piece mag tubes. I'm surprised such a product hasn't been made for the 870. Good move, Mark... most impressive! Any possibility that you would make one for the 870?

thazlett Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 The possibility of a Ti tube are very slim. Next run will likely be 8+1 and 8+2. Mark, Hope to get my order in on the next run of tubes. I like the idea of the 8+ tube as there are still a couple matches out here with a hard limit of 8 for the Tac divisions. I'll just throw the original Nordic +4 extension back on for those that have brought their preload standards up to the new reality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DHart Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) BigBamBoo... is this the 8+1 you are showing on your VM with 22" barrel? That would mean a maximum of 9 in the tube w/extension, and 1 in the chamber, for 10 rounds MAX, right? I assume one could also just put a cap on the tube, for 8 rounds in the tube, and keep the end of the tube just shy of the muzzle? How's about some Zombie / Carbon Arms porn!?!?

edittman1 Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 If anyone is interested, I'm going to sell my Carbon Arms +1 tube. I went a different route than I originally expected to, so I don't really need it. edittman@gmail.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBamBoo Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Hi Dhart. Yes, that is the 9+1 on a 22" model. I do not have a standard end cap so not sure if the threads are the same. I am sure someone else will chime in. Take care,Stan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DHart Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Stan... the newer 8+1 would be a little shorter, then, than what's showing on your gun? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travtastik Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 If anyone has dropped the +3 extension I would be interested in one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Murphy Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 My tube showed up today. I installed it in a few minutes. My factory tube was very tight to remove, but it came out in the end. I also installed my welded lifter. Ted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Blade Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 I think you have to be over a certain post count to post pics. Got the versa max back just in time. First match is this Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
co-exprs Posted April 5, 2013 Author Share Posted April 5, 2013 I got my Versa all set up, pimp style and I'll be shooting HM at all the big matches this year... which means I'll be running my pump at most of the small matches too. It's so cool though that I still bring the Versa in my gun bag to matches just so it doesn't get lonely. I'm shooting HM at the Noveske match this weekend and the Versa is in the car with all my other gear right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travtastik Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Got my tube installed this morning and can not wait to take it out later today. I am very happy with the fit and that it locks the forearm down tight with no wobble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triggerhound Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Thank you, Mike, for the fantastic customization work you did on my VersaMax. I installed the Carbon Arms VersaTube on it yesterday and I'm super impressed with the overall quality of the gun. Can't wait to get her to the range.
