AGD Double Trigger! Whew, looks fantastic!
In response to st6212, Please leave the trigger guard perpendicular to the gun so large fingers and gloved hands can have enough clearance to bring the trigger back to full rest!
A suggestion to make it even better. While milling them, you should drill and tap a hole behind the trigger and install a trigger stop. If the pull on the new frame is anything like it is on a benchmark 2x frame, that would be a real improvement.
My bad. I see now that the distance between the trigger and the frame is considerably less than the space on other 2x frames. Solid design.
I like it, but I have a few suggestions. First off, I'm not sure what you have there, but it should have the same thread size as the benchy and not 10/32 like the dye grip, we all know about the problems the dye frame has with grips. second, I think it would look great in chrome, and the last thing is that I think a screw mounted behind the trigger to be used as an adjustable stopper would be nice, of course with some instructions so no one over does it.

First and foremost, Black and Chrome. Can you make a solid SS version too (Just kidding about the ss). Since AGD doesn't really do anno stuff, perhaps release some frames raw so that people can get them annoed to match their own tastes or color schemes?
I think the AGD logo is too simple at present. I want something like the lion logo:
http://www.airgun.com/Images/logo5.gif on that sucker. I know there's little room on the frame, but perhaps if you use that logo without the bottom banner. Maybe without the banner and without the lions to make it simple, and maybe put one lion per side right behind the trigger, above the "half banana" milled window section.
Perhaps some more milling around, i like the "half banana" window, maybe another section above it.
On the back portion with the 3 vertical milled slots, how about next to it, going downwards, you mill the same depth as the slots: A, G, and D right next to the slots. These letters could be as long as the slots themselves, or as small as the A-G-D on there already, just deeper.
..obviously, I like design features. I don't want anyone to mistake my new AGD frame for a *shiver* Dye .45 double trigger frame. I'm (going to be) proud to be using my AGD frame, I want other people to know what is on the other end of the paintball that just took them out!
ok and lastly, you guys who are putting in this stuff about adjustable trigger stops? well I don't think agd wants that (I'm not sure, of course, but this is what I think) because it would send some intangible signal to mag owners to give their mags "trigger jobs," which leads to malfunctioning stuff, frustrated owners, etc,.
I agree a indent should be made in the frame for the rear strip screw. The AGD logo milling does look bland, a little lazer ingraving could do the trick. Lastly the 3 milled indents in the back look nice, but it would just get dirty and if he helps lower the cost, get rid of them.
Is it an indent or a countersunk hole? The AGD frame needs one. By the way just dropping my ideas again, I think you should prees or engrave the AGD twin lions with a little AGD circle in between them. Thats the only markings it needs. I like the milling you have done, keep it. I hope some one makes a stick trigger for it.
It looks very nice. It's "down-to-business" and well proportioned at the same time. While sculpted forms can be beautiful, I think simple lines work better with the single tube Automag design.
As far as colors go, black and silver are no-brainers. Would it be possible or even reasonable to make a "raw" unfinished frame for other folks to annodize/powdercoat/etc. however they choose?
I, too, would be as or more interested in a single trigger version.
BTW, is that heat-shrink tubing around the braided hose (near the q/d)?
I want one.

Love the new 2X Frame. Boy I hope your making them for the RT/RT Pro. It would be a shame not to(Don't make me beg!).
Figured this thread could use an up...I can't wait for these things to come out.

Cool...I want chrome or nickel plated though.
The AGD Lion logo would look very cool, I love having it there on my Z-Grip. But realistically, I don't know where they can put one on without having custom grip panels that are shorter on the top.
I WILL be buying a black one, I guess I can completely scrap the Dye frame idea now, and I'm very happy about that https://www.automags.org/ubb/wink.gif Now the wait begins...I think that trigger frame as-is looks very very nice. Keep us updated, and AGD should give us another post in this thread to see what recommendations, if any, they are taking to mind https://www.automags.org/ubb/wink.gif
They look awesome. I would suggest a flat, non glossy, black (anodize the trigger too). Also, I think standard screws, such as those on Benchmark frames would be best. The indents in the back don't bother me, but if it would be cheaper, I would say scrap 'em.
These will be available in RT form, correct?
I love it!!! The only thing that I don't like is the ADG little stamp, for such a excellent product and for ADG for making such an awesome gun, it needs to be fancier. Like swirls or something, or the lion logo would be tight!

Tom, any updates on it?
Hmmmmm, would there be any difference actually between a regular one and an RT one?? Oh yeah, the difference is just that spacer tube that sits around the thumb screw on the back of the frame right? That can be easily modded correct to go from regular to RT?? I've got an RT, I hope they make ones for the RT at the same time they do for the standard ones https://www.automags.org/ubb/frown.gif
Looks like nice work, but just another 45 grip. Yawn.
Yeah, I know what you mean.....which is why I'm tossing up between this or an electro frame.Quote:

Looks like electro frame would be the go....as I already got 2 .45 frames. Pointless to get another one. It's an excellent frame if it were standard for all their mags.
is it legal to marry one of these? hehe they llook awesome any idea when they will be in online stores???such as paintballgear.com??

this really deserves an UP!
Great, how much, and when will we see it on the market. Will it be in chrome

AGD's voltage or high voltage
because it's power in you're hands
Or A.M.P AGD's Manual Pistol grip ( note the dual meaning )
With the magic of Photoshop, I made some quick modifications of what I would do to tweak the look. This is a frame I would buy. It would look nice in chrome or matte black (like the body). The AGD logo should be enhanced to promote their brand name like people are saying. I can only do so much in Photoshop without spending hours on it but let me know what you think and I might be able to change it more.

How about one long scallop on the backside to further reduce the weight, or five or six thin slits/scallops close together for better grip? Maybe consider a thin s/s sleeve where the trigger pin inserts thru the triger, if possible. This would reduce side to side slop over time when the aluminum hole wears.
Where can i pick one of those things up(they are awsome).
Yawn.....
