Thread: "Best" low-rise clamping feed neck?

  1. #1

    "Best" low-rise clamping feed neck?

    I want a solid clamping feedneck to put on my MM2k9. It's a threaded feedneck so I'm not sure what options there are. I'm just planning to use a gravity-fed hopper on this mag for now. Gloss black or gray would be preferred. Please feel free to post pics of what you recommend too. Thanks a ton!

    Nano or Violent, whichever you can find.

    Thanks guys! I'll check them out.

    I've never heard of Violent! Are they associated with any manufacturers I would know?

    I have had a bunch of the CCM's and have had no problems with them, have also had a couple of RPG sub-zero's and they have been good too and probably look the best but if I had to buy something right now I would go with one of the AKA's. They are built tough like the RPG and in between the height of the CCM no-rise and no-pro.

    going_home, are the axe/mini threads the same as angel threads?

    I have an AKA on my MM2K9 and it looks nice and they are cheaper thoically than CCM or the Violent.

    This Empire Nano Axe feedneck threaded right on the Angel threaded XMT body with no resistance at all :

    If you plan on using a Dye Rotor, my secret combo is the best. I've spent about $400 bucks in trial and error. You find an old Angel Joy Fly on e-bay, and put one of the Dye tops on it. It may cost you $60+, but well worth it with a Rotor. Works perfect.

    Thanks for the tip. I'm not sure what loader I'm going to use yet, but that is good information.

    I feel like best is really subjective.. The "Best" Low rise feed neck I could get was the empire one that was on sale at my local shop for $25... It was so cheap I couldn't pass it up!

    My only suggestion is to make SURE you buy a feedneck with the correct threads!

    My thoughts exactly, easy to find was top of the list. When the local shop had nothing I made the decision based on price.

    I emailed that ebay seller to verify the threading (auction doesnt appear to list which threads) who I had coincidentally just ordered a prophecy loader from but got no response to my inquiry.

    That's not good.. Either they don't know what the threads are or they don't care.... I wouldn't buy unless I knew what the threads are!

    Which is lower, the nano or the violent? And has anyone confirmed the threading on those yet?

    Both are about the same as far as it goes to being low. And also both work on at least ULE bodies (that I have tested). Nano is little nicer, but they don't make them anymore.

    Not that it's necessary, but I picked up a violent axe/mini based on this thread and can confirm that it works perfectly on a ULE body. It's about as low as it can get (no gap between the clamping part of the neck and the flattop on the ULE body at all when it's fully threaded).

    Empire uses ICD threads for their feednecks. They are very similar to Angel threads. So you might get lucky and it threads right in. Sometimes it won't go. You are literally rolling the dice.

    That is true. But as long as you don't force it there should be relatively small danger of doing any damage.

    On my experience these two feednecks have gone into ULE bodies with no resistance.

    Not talking about damage, more to the fact that some will go in fine, some will go in okay but loose, some 1 or 2 threads. So you might get lucky or you might not. It really depends on how well or how poorly the threads were made.
