JG M4A1 part identification

CBC_North · October 2nd, 2008, 12:16

Hi, I've got a JG m4 and need to know the name of a part and where I can get a new one. It's the piece that actually holds the outer barrel to the receiver. I stripped the threads with the hex screw by over tightening it. (stupid pot metal)

It's part WA-16 in the picture.

I've tried searching but its difficult to do when you don't know the name, which is what I'm searching for. Thanks in advance.

I call it the barrel nut...

I'm not sure if I've seen it sold separately...

Some barrels (i.e. CA) have it build into the outer barrel...on others they screw in.

If you find an old TM barrel...I'm 90% sure they're exactly the same. You'll need a "TM" style one or you might need a new delta ring as well.

Better still...just tap a bigger hole and use a different screw.

Now there's an idea. I dont' know why I didn't think of that in the first place. Thanks.

I would still like to know what that part is called though if for nothing else but curiosity.

Chamber block.

Thanks. I've now found a stock marui chamber block on UN Company for $20, although I'm going to try to tap a new hole first.

I also have a few spare ones if need be.

Just a little update... I tried to drill new holes and tap them for a larger screw but the metal is just too shitty on the JG chamber block. Turning the tap in reverse to break off the chips would just eat the threads that I just made as the metal is just so cheap. Eventually I just used some JB Weld. It's permanent now but there is absolutely no wobble.
