Not necessarily true. CA makes 2 different advanced cylinder kits. If you needed to get an APS bolt handle, it's because you got the APS version. The M24 version you can use the stock handle, though they're complete garbage and I would replace it anyways.mojo said:

GD-PT-APS208 Guarder Steel Bolt Handle for APS-2 OR & SV US$36.00 US$36
Grand Total Cost: US$250.5
WCGshop is out of pretty much everything due to it being discontinued. Im looking to put my m24 right around 540 (550 absolute MAX) and was wondering if you knew where i could get these types of parts for around the same price. I looked at some pdi stuff but it would mean closer to 500 dollars...

I'll look around at a few other sites sometime this week and let you know what I come across. Perhaps PM me when you read this to remind me about this and testing the "sniper" barrel in the PDI chamber, 'cause I'm sure it'll slip my mind.
Yes, so long as you get the M24 version advanced cylinder kit as opposed to the APS. At a quick glance over at x-fire.org they only carry the M24 style handle, whether it says APS or not (and looks like the picture below) it needs an M24 style cylinder.blackshade69 said:hey in the way of a bolt handle would one from X-Fire be compatible with the CA advanced cylinder kit?
Probably .36s, but it's best to get a couple different weights, from a couple different brands and go out and see which shoots the best for your specific rifle.
Also, I said be careful which cylinder set you purchase because CA does produce 2 different advanced cylinder kits, one of which is APS specific, one of which is M24 specific - the only differences is the length of the piece where the handle attaches. The shorter is for the M24, the longer for the APS. I say be careful because many sites advertise them as interchangeable, which they in reality are, the difference just determines which handle you need.
