    M86 Frames, and internally mounted LPRs?

    Has anyone found an LPR besides a Tickler that will fit in an M86 frame?

    If so, what was involved in fitting it in?

    Thanks in advance,

    The M86 frames required modding to get them to fit if im not mistaken.

    The frame does require some modification for the Tickler to fit. I've never found the Tickler to be the most consistent, and was wondering if anyone was using something different....

    I've heard some are using the bullet lpr but I think it's similar to the tickler just the adjustment screw is different.

    A mini rock should fit in there, as they are the premier LPR to use. This is of course, without a knob...

    That's the one I prefer, but was told it is too long.

    The microRock on my eCocker extends 2.52 inches from the front block, when screwed in. I assume the M86 would be the same, or close.

    The outside diameter is .87 inch....

    Microrock is what i meant.

    Yez, cougars20th will have the last word on it.

    As for the rock, try it first, but without the grip panels on it. Then put in the other pneumatics. With tight confines, you sometimes have to find out what order to put things in & find out where they need to live.

    Getting any lpr into the frames is tight. Only small ones might fit. Tickler is what I modeled for it. Even that needs moding of the frame as shown in the like in my sale thread. At the time I cut up brand new frame to prove it would fit when it was questioned.

    The frame.also does have grooves in the bottom to allow airlines from a asa mounted lpr to pass under the panelss without moding the frame.

    The panels will need to be relieved to fit any lpr over 3/4" that is the width of the frame.
    Both knownothingmags and loguzzz are capable of doing this. Or knownothingmags can 3d print you a set.

    If someone wants to get me dimensions of different lpr's I willng gladly model them and see what might fit.
