GingerBreadMan Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 The rail is held with two small screws but its left with this bit: I cant work out how its removed does anyone know? It wont twist off and the bolt heads don't function Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GingerBreadMan Posted June 28, 2015 Author Share Posted June 28, 2015 Undo the grub screw in the middle of the silver bit. I tried that lozart, it just allows for the outer barrel to be removed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha.s1 Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Had this same problem a while back, tried seeing if anyone knew a way without the specific delta ring tool, but ended up giving in and buying the removal tool, took me quite a while to find the tool too, im not sure if anyone has done it without the tool, and a tenner for something only ever going to be used once is a bit annoying, linked for your convenience http://airsoftzone.co.uk/delta-ring-tool-for-r8-cm18-rush-gng Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters M_P Posted June 28, 2015 Supporters Share Posted June 28, 2015 On a real style Daniel defense rail you'd have to unscrew the screws going towarda the end of the barrel on that ring, however as it's a combat machine I wouldn't be hugely surprised if it's not removable.

Supporters Sitting Duck Posted June 29, 2015 Supporters Share Posted June 29, 2015 yup will very likely need that tool unless you can knock up a crude device like it the black inner retaining ring is right inside holding the light grey of start of outer barrel Raider's have a bigger thicker easier to get to retaining ring but on the cm18 its right inside the mock mk18 ring - bastid G&G mofo's ps - kudos for pic as it really does help explain things others with problems need to take note of this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerBreadMan Posted June 29, 2015 Author Share Posted June 29, 2015 Thanks for the pic M_P I did try those screws but they are fake and plastic I'll look into a way around using the tool or alternatively airsoft zone isn't far from me so I'll go and get one.

n1ckh Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Is that a metal or plastic receiver ?? If it's metal then it's possible that it has thread locker so will need to be heated to loosen it If it's plastic then a gentle tap with a flat head screw driver & hammer should work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchett Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Im just adding for anybody else with the same issue. It is possible using two 2.5mm allen keys wedged into the delta ring prongs. There are four of the prongs or whatever they are called on the threaded delta ring piece. Wedge two allen keys(parallel to each other for even force) into the prongs and use a hammer on each allen key simultaneously to apply force. This may require two people to hit the keys at the same time. Eventually the force should rotate the threaded nut piece. Make sure you use a vice to hold the unit in place whilst hammering otherwise its pretty much impossible. Worked for me anyway. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Sitting Duck Posted April 21, 2017 Supporters Share Posted April 21, 2017 A likey to congratulate on your determination to remove it Though if I was thinking of refitting it I tend to think the tool would be a wise consideration Suppose you could knock something up with 4 x flat nails... or something plus a dremel/file & some imagination too but well done all the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
