Elwood Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 Could someone give me the width/height measurement of the black plastic guide bar. The bar that tells you if you're about to put a bullet through the bayonet or not! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6.5Grendel Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 It's 6mm square although I don't fully trust it as I'm never sure the bayonet is parallel with with the bore . I use a carbon fibre arrow shaft which I insert into the muzzle if this clears the bayonet then I figure the bullet will too. A bit anal but I was told they can't be repaired if hit by a bullet so...... Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1971silversurfer Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 leave it further away and adjust the sensitivity of the unit.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DW58 Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 No, a shot sensor unit can't be repaired - been there/done that, my original V3 sensor unit was damaged by a bullet as it wasn't mounted parallel to the bore and didn't much like being in contact with a friend's 165gr SMK going quite quickly. Â N.B. If you need a replacement, it's much cheaper to buy direct from Magnetospeed if you can, plus they have an offer whereby you can by units which are not cosmetically perfect at a large discount. I can't find any cosmetic fault in my replacemen unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
