Rear Picatinny Rail for Tippmann TiPX

thingiverse

Most Picatinny rails for the TiPX are connected to the front block. That prevents the TiPX from working with tight-fitting and retention holsters. This Picatinny rail attaches to the rear of the TiPX, leaving the main part of the marker clear for use with holsters. The rail is sized for a min reflex sight. It is not large enough for a standard-sized reflex sight, but due to the single screw retention point, a heavier sight would likely not keep zero as well. Printing is easiest by placing the rear of the rail on the bed. To attach this sight, remove the rear machine screw from the TiPX. Replace with a 10-32 x 1.25" socket head machine screw. Important notes: (1) There are at least 2 versions of the TiPX out there. My 3XXXX serial numbered marker is 32mm wide at the rear. My 75XXX serial numbered TiPX is 34mm wide at the rear. That is why there are 2 STL files included. Measure and print the correct one. (2) This is a tight fit. It is designed to be, so it doesn't move. Because of that, the machine screw should enter tightly through this rail into the TiPX, and exit on the other side will be difficult. Depending on your printer, you might have to open up the hole slightly on the exit size of this rail for the machine screw in order for it to fit. That is fine. As long as it holds the rail down tightly, the rail will not move.
