    Are there any un-milled slug bodies out there?

    I'm getting hit up with requests for custom bodies which I will get to in due time, but was wondering if people were sitting on un-milled slugs?

    Derf87 has one and was going to put it back up for sale. I changed my mind about buying it so it should still be up for grabs. Here is the thread:

    Yup, still got mine, was planning on selling, but if your planning something wicked as far as milling, may change my mind about parting.
