There has been enough bandwidth already used on the reasons behind that for me to waste any myself.
1. I would greatly prefer a 45* frame to keep the profile low. An 85* frame would be less desirable but better than a 90*.
2. Make sure it accepts widely available grip covers. I know this sounds obvious, but yours won't sell well if you require proprietary covers.
3. There are reasons Fireblades and Tunablades are highly sought after; they work and feel superb. I greatly prefer a Fireblade, but that's my preference. I would avoid a double trigger such as a stock e-mag trigger. Delrin would be my material of choice, but dust-anno'd aluminum would work fine.
4. The option for an internal LPR is far preferable to me. The more sleek and smooth the grip frame, the better.
5. Again, this is probably incredibly obvious, but will your grip work with both Classic valves and ULT'd valves?
6. Will you offer a frame to work with a RT Classic?
7. Part of your challenge will be keeping the price of your frame low enough that people won't see a DIY pneumag frame as worth the personal effort to produce in order to save the difference in cost.
8. Weight has already been covered, so I'm done.
Best wishes in your efforts. If you need any beta testers, I'm first in line!
