henselmonster Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 I am looking for a vendor that offers accurate mortar tube vaccuformed parts. I have found a number of options that aren't super accurate. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HansVader Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Ross walmsley , RWA creations . I contacted him on Facebook messenger. Sent out pretty quick but shipping was long from the uk. Tell him to send regular post , cost a couple bucks extra but way better than the parcel to go…Part is on the left compared to an anovos on the right . Looks great imo Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrookKnight Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 If you are in the US, there is a good vendor in North Carolina.Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airborne Trooper Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 I think the only outstanding issue for us in the states is the mortar tube. I remember the UK uses a wider tube that isn't easily available here. I got end caps from tosche traders and they are much larger than the tube I currently have.

Sometimes I also use a 2-inch PVC pipe. But the outside diameter is the same.Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

henselmonster Posted December 29, 2017 Author Share Posted December 29, 2017 I found a few options on Amazon, they are clear tubes but would work fine if painted. OD is about 2.5" This is the cheaper one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0030A057A/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A1DR7HYJVQI5BJ&psc=1 Here is a more durable but more expensive one. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000OMJ5D2/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airborne Trooper Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 NICE! I'll add it to my list of things of upgrades Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoCKo Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Ross is the guy to ask, i provided reference pictures for his plate, most other vendors are far from accurate. Mostly they only use standard TK detonator plates which are completely off, have a close look before you buy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rawktrooper Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 I use MonCal for all my parts. Very accurate and US vendor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crashmann Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 The only way to be sure is to ask your vendor to send you a picture of exactly what you'll receive, then compare it to the screen captures and behind the scenes photos. http://tk386.com/sandtrooper_backpack_kit/slides/2012-07-17 05.14.49.html I know a guy (wink wink) if you're interested Charlie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
