Title: Moving the armcup back on Garrett ace detectors
Post by: peanut on June 14, 2012, 07:59:10 PM
I don't know about other garrett users but I find the armcup a little too far forward for my comfort so I moved the armcup back a further 1" or 25mm and the difference in comfort now is extraordinary.

I have  long arms and the Garrett arm cup falls about half way along my forearm leaving a lot of free space either side of my forearm in the armcup.

If you think you might benefit from this modification try this test . Without gripping the hand grip Place your forearm into the arm cup and grip the handgrip as normal. Then release your grip on the handgrip and push your arm further into the armcup until it feels comfortable . If your arm then fits a little more snugly without any side- to- side slop, then this modification might be useful to you.

Unfortunately I seem to have lost the first part of this video showing the measurement setting out and drilling the holes but hopefully there is enough left to show the modification.
