I'm thinking of ways to make it easier to arm our cylon brothers.how would one go about making a pull off one of my rifle's?wouldn't it be hard when you got to the vent part were the tube go's in?and then there would just be emty space inside and what would hold the tube in place.

I think the attached pic will help.
Sean was wondering about the Outside Diameter (OD) of the tube vs. the Inside Diameter (where a nozzle tip has to fit INTO).

I am pretty sure the specs have been posted before 2-3 times, and I have no idea what the inside dims are. I can't remove the tip to measure inside.

Sean... this pic is probably as close as one can get to the size. Looks like it shows the outside diameter of the barrel too as 1 1/2"
The inside SHOULD be 1 15/64" by this diagram.

Would someone please post the approximate dimensions of the 2 boxes in red on the centurion rifle? I am looking for the size of the insert and the "box" on the rear of the rifle.
Thank you

I try to get the rifle, and tape measure out tomorrow to see what I can do for you in the inside, and outside boxes.

Thanks guys. BTW sean the following site sells clear acrylic tubes measured by the outside diameter instead of the inside diameter. I ordered 6ft of the 1 1/2 tube and will let you know how it fits inside the PVC once it arrives.

OK I measured the 3 sided (open top) outside box. It almost a 1/4 inch wide, and high trim. The bottom line is 6 3/4 inch long, and 2 1/2 tall. There isn't a inside box, but just the panel only and it has a 1/4 gap between the side panel, and inside panel on the left side. The panel is laid on the bottom panel bumped up against the right side wall.
