Thanks for the help Roger,
I decided I don't want to cut the bodies right now so if wanted the mics can be brought back to stock. Plus I have those shotguns I never used.
For know I want to use your schematic for the mods, but with the battery in the line. Then down the road I'm going to buy that m20 tap on ebay and try to make some bodies from scratch with the battery in the body. I think I can thread the tube if I use a bridgeport to line up the tap. If that works and anybody wants to use the tap when I'm done they are welcome to it.
Also, does anyone know what material the bodies are? They look like stainless. I was thinking aluminum would work but would need to be a little thicker.
Thanks again,
Shinn
