ballisti cast mark 2 mold question??

[wyattjames]

I just picked up a really good deal on a old mark 2 that looks like it was hardly used ! I would like to use my magma molds on, Has anyone converted magma molds to work on the ballisti cast ? Do you have to change the key mounting from the two screws to single pin or screw centered ? I have already figured out that the distance on the out side of the keys has to be at 2.100 and any info would be greatly appreciated thanks

The molds need to be modified so they can have the keys mounted with a pin or screw. The keys need a little bit of wiggle to let them align and close correctly. I've tried running the magma molds without modifying the keys and just adjusting the cams that open and close the molds, but ran into major jamming issues. B-C should be able to do it for you or else if you have a little knee mill or know someone that does you can do it yourself.
