Dibs85 Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 Hi chaps, Just bought an armsan a612 and it's sat at home in the cabinet while I'm stuck at work. Anyway I haven't had a chance to play with it yet. Has anyone got one of these beauties, I have been reading the manual and it says it can be turned into a 5+1 just by unscrewing the cap and taking the mag restrictor out. Is it that easy to convert. I only have sec 2 so won't ever be taking it out. But surely it can't be that easy to convert a sec 2 to a sec 1 without even needing any tools?

sportsbob Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 The instructions are not country specific, the mag tube should be crimped to comply with UK law. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rimfireboy Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 The U.K. Version is probably crimped instead, but I could be wrong. My sec2 supernova came with the mag restrictor loose in the box. It wasn't required as the tube is crimped anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dibs85 Posted August 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 That makes a bit more sense I spose. As if it was that quick and easy to change I expect many people would do it whilst sat in a hide and put it back in when leaving! Not that that thought crossed my mind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dibs85 Posted August 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 I think I know the answer to this but here goes. I presume if the mag tube was changed for an uncrimped one and the restrictor rod was kept in it would still be classed as a sec 1 as it's easily converted, is that correct?

chris1961 Posted August 6, 2016 Report Share Posted August 6, 2016 (edited) My yildiz a71 you just unscrew the mag tube take out rod screw back in then it's a 4+1 it is that simple the mag is roll crimped but it allows 4 carts in its the spring that stops more carts being loaded but with only a sec2 I only use it in the 2+1configuration Edited August 6, 2016 by chris1961 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
