Have Blue wrote up a splendid article on how to cheaply install the magnetic trigger mod in a Tribal frame somewhere on PBN, but apparantly the search function fails to bring it up. It will be an older thread, probably a year and a half, 2 years, or so old in the Tribal forum.

You can get the magnets from yours truely for $5 shipped. They are described on my site.

Bored and have a 'net connection - you can find the article in question here (http://www.pbnation.com/showthread.php?t=250246). Of course, the pics have expired, might have to see if HB still has 'em somewhere and we can combine it all into a manual here on the site.

I know you can dye your hopper shells by doing something involving boiling pot of water, food dye/coloring and quick fingers.


And Usagi. the pictured links look fine to me. (the ones in HB's post.)

Here is the bolt dyeing mod....sounds like your hopper mod! but be warned putting a hopper in hot water willl warp the shell(thats how you mod them fro having the warped feed run threw them) Anyway, this is by no means my work, i pulled it from the BKO owners group, no pics but a good description!

Bolt dyeing mod
By PatrickLee




Well first off you will need several things:

-Rit Dye clothing dye
-Pot
-Water
-Bolt
-Tongs
-Rag or old towel
-Clock or timer of some sort



Step 1:
Take the pot, fill it with water up till the bolt will be cover by it. Put the water on the stove and start heating it.

Step 2:
While the water is heating, take your bolt out of your gun, take the right sized allen key and unscrew the setscrew/spring/ball from the back of the bolt. MAKE SURE YOU TAKE IT OUT! Keep these things safe.
*IF YOU HAVE O RINGS ON YOUR BOLT TAKE THEM OFF*



Step 3:
Check on the water, when it gets hot pour in the dye. MAKE SURE YOU DO NOT USE THE WHOLE PACKET!! This dye is powerful stuff and all you should need is 1 teaspoon for a light coloring, more for darker. Once the powder is in the pot, stir it around and let it heat up to a boiling point.


Step 4: *CRITICAL STEP*
When it begins to boil turn the heat to medium. Then put the bolt into the pot. WATCH IT CLOSELY. Most likely you will have to take the bolt out several times to check on it's progress but keep doing it until you have your desired color.

Step 5:
Take the bolt out and rinse it off with cold water. Make sure you don't get the dye on your hands because it will stain. Wash it off good then place it on your rag/old towel.

*IF YOU WANT TO KEEP YOUR POT DUMP THE DYE OUT QUICKLY!* I poured it into the toilet and flushed real quick to prevent
the dye from setting. Then i quickly scrubbed the pot with soap and water for a while. It got out all the dye with no problem.
Step 6:
Dry the bolt real good and let it sit. After around an hour put the ball/spring/set screw back into the back of the bolt.

Step 7:
Replace the bolt back in your gun and VOILA!

Good luck, experiment with different colors or fades. just remember to do the light colors first and give it time between dying for the previous dye to dry and set
