That is extroidinary. Hey, if I was to send you the money for the sluggo, then send you my black ULE Rail, and whatever extra it is for your work, would the price of it be less, because I sent you a ULE rail?

Look at this page (http://www.automags.org/forums/showthread.php?s=&postid=1220013#post1220013) the information you seek is there.

thats exactly my thoughts. is there any way you can put some type of "filler" in the holes prior to milling to eliminate them? regardless, those things are awesome!

Gabriel

he could use filler, but it wouldnt take an anno (the filler, that is)

He could weld them up.Still might show some depending on the anno color but it would be better than the holes.You'd think you could get them without the holes by now since so many people are buying them to be cut up.

Nice work on the bodies anyway.

I can now ULE mill Emag rails. I remove 2.2 oz.

So a Karta rail, which normally weighs 5.4 oz, now weighs 3.2 oz.

A stock Emag rail weighs 7.1 oz. This would take it down to 4.9 oz.


Right now looks like the price for ULE milling on a stock Emag rail is $30. If you get the ULE milling done to a Karta, it is only $25 extra, as opposed to the $30.
pics to come soon.

out!

ps- this makes the Karta + rail weigh in at 7.4 oz..

Nicad,

It showed up today, looks great I can't wait to get this project finished. Nice job on milling the rail as well.

To everyone else,

Pictures can't do this body justice. There are some curves, and depth changes that just don't show up in pics, I found this to be the same with my Dallara as well. The work is great, and Nicad is excellent to deal with, support this guy! :)

OMG!!!! I must have one now!!

how much are they? I think i may have missed the post on the prices.

And i already a ULE Rail...how much will it be to re-mill mine? still 30$?

tell me tell me!! :)

P.S. That is the sickest body I have ever seen in my life.

Orginized Crime WILL Cream there paints when they see it!!

Jayloo- im sorry man I got your online name mixed up with this one... yours is already shipped out as stated in the email to you earlier. :)

sorry for the mixup! bet ya thought it was odd seeing yours in blue.. heheh

SkyBoySurfer-
they are $300 shipped raw polished finish. If you send in your own rail (ULE or not) i can give a $35 discount. Anodizing to a single color (only anodizing I can get them done to right now) like the one in the pics above is $40 extra.

out!

SkyBoySurfer
01-10-2004, 02:16 AM
so your saying if i send in my rail it will cost me 305$ with anno?

if you send the rail, it needs to be stripped of all color, right? and does anyone have a pick of how a ule body looks on the karta rail, just in case i don't like the karta. (not likely, but just in case ;))

Yeah, but your's is a BETA...........mine is, at least I beleive it is, the first production, and it is the first ULE rail'd

rikkter
01-13-2004, 12:59 PM
.. its not a 'BETA' of any sort. the ONLY.. ONLY changes they made was on the rail(the gel logo and the sear pin area).

those are the only areas that are different..


and i'm sending Colin my rail to get ULE'd out.. so. once again, they ARE practically the same bodies(well not practically. they are)

Deadlywind, I gotta question. Why did u guys change the milling on the emag rail...where the bubble jewel goes?

If I send u guys an ace eye can u install it? I heard it requires some milling. Just for kicks.

01-13-2004, 10:44 PM
Is the rail milled for vert asa's because there are no holes for the front mount?

these bodies are made for EMAGS
so a vert asa would not work unless you drilled holes in it.. plus it'd look pretty funky with all the space.
