Title: Bam B50/51 owners, a side lever mod is near
Post by: darryl on December 11, 2011, 01:34:34 PM
BigEd has informed me he will have a side lever mod for the BAM 50.51, and that it will use Marauder magazines, plus there will be a single shot tray available. Just spreading the word. Here's a link: http://www.network54.com/Forum/113813/thread/1323549313/side+lever+B50+mod- (http://www.network54.com/Forum/113813/thread/1323549313/side+lever+B50+mod-)

Sweet. Exactly what the B50 needs. I can't wait.

Ed says he still has some work to do on them, but will try to get them to the anodizer before the end of this month. He did not say how much work remained beyond that info he gave me. He said he'll post when they are available, so obviously I'm speculating, but I'd guess before March.

Will it be a riser breech, or will a riser need to be used with it if I want to install a shroud?

Jaymo, I can only speculate that the side lever breech will be a straight out swap with the stock breech, and with that, if someone wants one of Big Ed's  shrouds, a riser would be needed. Again, just speculation on my part. I certainly can't speak for the man, and I have not seen his design. Maybe he'll make two types of breeches: a standard one,  and a tall unit to accommodate a shroud?

Pellgunfun. I think that he has had some medical issues and us out of the loop.  I've seen examples iof his work and everyone speaks highly of him.  His website is still up.
