Dom18190 Posted May 9, 2016 Author Share Posted May 9, 2016 Iv tried but with no luck I carnt see any screw or anything holding it in place it looks as If the flash hider does unscrew as it has 2 flat bits to were a wrench goes but doesn't unscrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aliveinlights Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Don't take this the wrong way but have you tried "tightening" the flash hider? As the thread is opposite. Only thought I'd mention that as every time I put my tracer on my aeg I always forget and keep turning it clockwise thinking "why isn't this goin on!?!

simonh Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 You can get tracer mags now rather than needing to put something in the hop or on the end of the gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporters Lozart Posted May 17, 2016 Supporters Share Posted May 17, 2016 I've not seen any tracer mags for a G36 though.... Tracer mags can be ok but the BBs sitting in the hop will fade as they are not illuminated. I have an older G&P one which is pretty poor and a couple of the custom built Incentive Designs ones which are a lot better but still not perfect. It's a basic limitation of the design, as soon as the BB leaves the mag it starts to fade so the longer it hangs about in your hop unit the worse it'll get.
