Yep, an IT (Intimidation Technology) body made by Xtreme Depot. They are no longer.

Edit:
All aluminum body

The IT body was a short run aftermarket production body. It was missing the steel washer found in the slug body (that other aftermarket bodies like the Karta are made from). A lot of people questioned how well produced they were and if they were into tolerances enough to be reliable or not. No idea, never shot one myself.

They had tolerance issues.....I couldn't even put valves I had in an IT body I had once. And a valve I could fit in would have bolt stick. I think the body tube is a little too narrow, or the detents stickout too much, but then again these are experiences with just one of their bodies. I may have just gotten a bad one......

actually the big problem with them was that the feedneck threads were milled incorrectly and the feed necks could continue down getting in the way of the bolt.

You dont mill threads. You tap them.
They weren't milled from slugs.
There was also a lack of the steel ring insert.

actually, being an odd size (well, i dunno, but its metric and large) it is quite possible they were milled, rather than tapped.

Thread milling is becoming very popular, since it is, by and large, much more universal to impliment. It also allows many things tapping does not I.E. controlling the starting point of the thread.

well I have had it up and running now for some time have not had any leaks or problomes with the body i had to add a spacer to my on/off but worked out well. whats this steel ring insert? whats it do?

Still want to get a TacOne body though I'm a bushballer and would rather have something more tactical :) probably an Rt rail and a ygrip too.

the pic you posted has a hopper left micromag body, not the same thing in the link
IT, well, they were interesting. Lets just say this. IF they were a good company and their products were worth the money, they'd still be around enough to even buy off old stock
enough said
