Sweet! i am currently gathering parts for another build and i plan on using one of these frames! (unless its hideously ugly or something :p )

One more operation on the frame! (woo-hoo)
All that is left is the top and bottom machining of the frame. Trigger pocket/MPA3 area and the asa screws on the bottom.
Still have to make grip panels but I need materails..
:clap: :headbang: :dance: :D

Gonna try and do the last of the machining tomorrow, got a little off track today. :pQuote:

Man now that I think about it, I hope this is not being “over sold” as it was never my intention. The original design concept is not what I ended up going with. Although I’m stoked about the grip frame were just talking about an 86* grip with tinkering in mind. If AGD were to make an 86" frame this would probably be it (In regard to the basic shape).Quote:

youre gonna make me cry luke, at least take a blurry picture of it walking through the woods :(
It's no secrete at this point, give me a minute and I'll snap a shot. :DQuote:

The solid part at the top will be milled out from the top, a MPA3 should fit nicely.
Uses AGD triggers and safety parts.
Aluminum grips.
These will be lighter than the Intelli frame.
I'm going to do a single trigger design too.
Not sure what to do with an ASA mount on the bottom, with dove tails, T-slots, standard ASA 10-32 screw holes and sleeper mods being done to frames these days I’m tempted to not do any machining there at all. (?)
:wow: Awesome!!!! :cheers:
Edit: Regarding the ASA mounting: I don't think you can go wrong with the two 10-32 screws. If somebody wants a T or dovetail ASA, they can bolt on a rail.
I'm in love :hail:
I too am also super stoked about this as well in addition to. Also. Me excited.
No but seriously. This looks awesome.
Looking forward to this!Quote:

It looks very comfortable, I will have to get one of these, not sure if I will get a single or double trigger first though...
looks like we found the frame for the tripple mag.
:cheers:
awsome work luke.
how many are you gonna buy KNM? :rofl:
I'm down for a single trigger version.
nice!!! looks like the search is over for a new frame! will they be drilled and tapped for a LPR??? :ninja:
Nope.Quote:

are you going to make a version that has every possible oz. taken off?Quote:

i know this is a very minor suggestion and prolly makes the frame sale price go up.
maybe i need to wait for the final product since this one is not done yet.
Great work so far,
:cheers:
thankyou,
KNM
Yup... I just got a new dose of patience... I need one of these!
I can't wait to see the single trigger version.
I would like to see a rail "milling" into the top with an RT sear inset... and a single trigger would be fantastic. ;)
Right now there is a difference of 19 grams between a stock intelli and mine which is unfinished. My guess is it will come in under a stock frame when we're done. The final product will be much as you see it here (I made some minor changes that most guys wont pick up on) but with the top finished (of course), my intent is to keep the up front cost as low as possible so you guys can decide what additional work you want. Some guys will choose to use it as is but they won’t have to pay for all the additional machine work. If I choose all the mods up front it will leave less room personal customization and the final product will cost more. :)Quote:

I can't see from the photo, but do you still need a rail with this frame?
+1 for the forgrip that hides LPR.
luke: "If everyone really needs a sleeper setup I can do a foregrip to hide the LPR "
Yes you do, its just a grip frame.Quote:

luke will you stock these?
I'm not exactly sure how this will go down right out of the gate, I may end up just doing a small run of both to see if they sell.Quote:

:cuss: you Luke. Just when I thought I'd be done planning more stuff to buy.
count me in for at least one of these...im gonna :eek: my pants when i get to see the single trigger frame...great work, once again Luke :headbang: :hail:
Luke, do you intend to offer some extra custom work over the standard product at extra cost as well? For example, I'd love having a single trigger one modded for e-pneu operation.
Thanks,
Mendel.
Yes of course, but I really don’t have the time to do that type of research, design, setup and testing, I'm just spread to thin as it is. The machining is the easy part. ;) :)Quote:

If the price is right I may buy one of each.Quote:

Will you be having these finished or just sell them raw?
Just raw, sorry.Quote:
