Mine is only 'somewhat' available. Asked a couple of airsmiths what they could or would do and haven't received anything back yet :cry: Though with funds running low and Events like christmas coming up....

I was just wondering... I know that slug bodies are used to make kartas and dallaras and chords...
Why does everyone want to buy the slug bodies?(or so they say) Why don't they just find a karta etc. for sale?

Or is there something else that everyone uses these slug bodies for?

Because Dallara's Karta's are harder to find then the standard ULE body.
Also at times they aren't reasonably priced, and I don't blame the sellers- I know I'll never part with my Dallara, and if I were to...It'd be pretty expensive.

Why would anyone want a slug? Simple, you need a slug body to make somthing like this:

Has anyone had any luck contacting Deadlywind to mill their slugs?
I imagine it would be quite expensive to set up for 1 or 2 bodies.

There are others out there too. Just spoke with someone today who has one. Trust me, they are out there.

If everyone wanted one like they say they do, theyd all be gone.


They want them , they just want them cheap. :) Ima hang on to my few for now.

Seems like it, however I will take a dozen of the cheaper than they can made versions when they come out. ;)

Maybe because I dunno, chords are dam hard to find.

to get a slug milled down it is the price of the cut you want minus 100 bucks. i felt it was too much when all the slugs i could find were well over 100 bucks.

hey all, I'm new to the forum and to 'mags, but I've been playing for a few years now.

Well, I've got a friend who is helping me collect the parts for a 'junker' gun, and the body he's throwing is a slug body.

I'm curious as to how valuable they are, since I'm a bit torn on whether or not to just hold onto it and get a minimag body instead or if I want to do a completely custom, 1-off mill job..

keep in mind that I intend to keep it either way, so you're out of luck for a sale! (at least for now, lol)

thanks in advance for the help! I'm very interested in the 'mag and how it all goes together.. I've had a chance to shoot my friend's a few times and really liked it alot! :D

::edit::

looking at a previous post, I believe that the one I'm getting is the kind that does not cover the valve, but does seem to cover part of the barrel.. 'cocker threaded, of course, and looks to be in good shape!

thanks again!

you could probably sell the slug (if thats really what it is) and buy yourself a nice used mag.

no prob...run a search for slug body in the buy/sell forum and you could get an idea of what they have been going for.
