It's time for a new automag body... a "resurrection" automag

[rukh013]

Call me crazy but if these new age space *****es can have hidden detents why can't the beefier, better, brawny-er, bad-a** automag?



Imagine this is a ULE body with no visible detents

No more angel threaded detents to buy
No more anno matching
Less blow outs
More awesome










Who's with me?

careful now, adding detents might add more weight

on second thought, why? doesn't the barrel have the detent on it, and also the detents would need to go through the barrel as well to work correctly.

I just want to eliminate the detents from the side of ULE bodies and put them underneath

How about a nylon tipped front frame screw that goes into the body just a little bit. So basically only the nylon tip would stick into the body.

The issue I see is the bolt cutting anything like that off. Even the ego detents would get cut off by the bolt. Somebody needs to design and make a spring loaded detent that goes in the rail. Or possibly a way to put the old nubbins in a channel milled in the rail or bottom of the body. A little recess could allow it to go down when the bolt passes over it.

The nubbin is my only complaint with twist lock. I'm die hard twist lock. But nubbins need manipulation to have enough tension for force fed hoppers. I do want to test out modified spyder detents in my tl barrel though next summer.

I forget the polymer we mixed a while back.
but it is tested to this exact thought,
plus many others.

detent placement can be put in many places.
with the new polymer it is stiff when docile, but when pressure is put to it, it reacts with the proper tension,
and also can be tweaked.

came to be to expensive to work with.
I have the cash but dont have the time to bring this back to testing.

so all I can say is your are on the right track.
but moving detents is kind slow progress.
same thing just done a different day.

cool though
