    Sniper Front Block on a Karnivor

    I thought I heard that the resurrection and sniper use the same front block style as the karnivor, is this true?

    Cuz if so, I may have just found a pump kit for the Karni

    I'm prolly wrong but I think the little "tab" is on the wrong side...

    I know that you can go the other way, ie putting a Karni FB on a Sniper body. Just want to confirm that it'll work both ways and that there's not some stupid index issue like this.

    That's docfire's photo right? I just wanted to be sure that you could go the other route.

    It's too bad there's no 4th rod on the Snipers, since you can't use both side guide rods on a karnivor.

    The front block will fit. I don't know about the clearance needed for the sled, I know the midblock Karni, and Black Magic are different from the Sniper- I think the Sniper sled is thinner from previous comments by Simon and the build the pic came from above.

    I can bend a pump arm. Not incredibly worried about that.

    The alignment tab is on the correct sides, but the depth of the overlap is different I believe. I think if you put a sniper front on a Karnivore you will be left with a large step.

    Thanks Simon. Looks like I'll have to take a closer look to see if I'm okay with it.

    I wonder if docfire needed some crazy orings to fill space then?
