So I have just about everything in order my make my classic pump mag. I have to use a classic body because I'm using a eclipse splash kit with it and the barrel is twist-lock. I was really wanting to have a stick feed on the gun but I'm not sure how I would go about doing this because I can't remove the feed on the stainless bodies. I know that there are spring feeds that I can get that will attach to the power feed but I think they look kinda tacky. has anyone attached a nice stick feed in place of the power feed? An of you uber fabracation guys able to do something like this?

Can you make a drawing of what you want made?

a very very bad and fast drawing of what I'm thinking of. Mind you this is nothing exact. I would have to take into account the sight rail that is a part of the splash kit.

Well the down and dirty of it that I can see you doing is taking a grinder/hacksaw to the powerfeed tube and cut it out so that another tube could be put in place there running along the body. You could cut off the top ends of the feed to shorten it all down and then you could place a new feed tube into the socket and weld it to the edges....

Let me draw something up for ya....
