Nobody

with the supply of Angel threaded clamping feednecks starting to run dry, and CCM feednecks are there but lacking(i hate them personally, but at times they are the only choice). do you(AO & AGD community) want a new supply of clamping feednecks? what would you pay for one/them?

i think i've found something that can work and is readily available. i can't really go into detail, but suffice to say, for a little work on my part, i can get and supply new feednecks for all.

so i want to know what everyone thinks. also, this isn't a pre-order. if i get enough interest, i will then post up made items for sale. basically, its a demand and supply. as long as everyone is demanding them, i will supply them.

forgot to post this up, i'm looking at selling these for about $35-40 for a complete feedneck, ready to mount to your gun. but, in order to do this, i need to get the feednecks, which is the all on my end. i want to make sure that i have them, in hand, before i sell them.

on Monday, i should be able to post up what i'm thinking of doing. IF there is enough interest.

I'm in the market for a couple. You have my interest, and may have my money depending what the final products "looks" like.

$35 - $40 is right in the wheel house of what I would expect to pay. In the market depending on appearance and profile (RPG sub-zero being the gold standard in my book).

Curious to know what you guys dislike about the ccm units? Other than they are not of the cam lock design. I would say the quality is top notch.

nobody: cant want to see what you come up with. I may buy a few.

I rather like the no-pro ones. But they aren't as easy to source as the others are.

No problem with quality at all. I just don't like that they have CCM printed across them. Just a peeve of mine, unless you're sponsoring me, I don't want your logo's all over my markers.

I agree with PGOP. RPG Sub Zero is the standard to me. If it is better then I would be interested in one.

Is AKA and A+ no longer making them? AKA are IMO one of the best around and they're only $20+ shipping: http://www.akalmp.com/feedtubes.html. A Plus is still selling theirs as well for $ 30: http://www.aplusp8ntball.com/camlocks.html. While its always nice to have options, IMO $40-50 is well past market considering you can get the CCM ones for like $25...

At least the email that's associated on A+ paypal account was invalid when I tried to buy one of theirs, which makes it a bit risky/fishy on my book.

I have several of them and love em. I actually replaced all of my CCM ones with them. Only downfall is they only come in polished black.

I like the A+ feednecks too. Only place to reliably buy them new is eBay when they list a slew of them from time to time.

I bought a few from them a couple months ago. I thought the same thing and even talked with paypal after finding the email address and phone number not working. They were initially responsive to paypal, and then later they were to me. He stated that he had separated some of the businesses he had and that it hadn't been updated on his website. Art is the owner and told me that he had sold off his anodizing business, but still has the paintball and machining. I received everything very fast. A little unnerving to not have the contact info working, but he told me that he would have his web guy fix everything.

I know you can reach him at this email since it was the one he was communicating to me about a month or so ago

[email protected]

I'm hoping this post is taken more of information to a fellow member, rather than deflating the heart of Nobody and his inquiry of selling a future product. I for one love options of quality items, and I'm anxious to see what you have in store.

so, no questions? granted, its a simple operation, but no one wants to know if there is a shot trap/gap between the body and feedneck, or if you see the anno through the gap, or anything?

if not, then awesome. i have the feednecks coming and should be ready to sell sometime next week.

Yes, I've a question, as it's very close to the body, is there a risk to make marks in the ano when screwing the feedneck ?

the feedneck does not ride on the body. when turning it on, it won't go into the anno. if i'd have to put a number on it, i'd say it was a couple of millimeters difference. i'd have no problems putting this on anything special.

i'd wouldn't have a problem just making the for people but i haven't put a price to do that yet. i don't have a spring feed on hand, but can borrow one to mock up.

I too would be interested in one that would work with an Empire Spring feed. I have one that I'd be willing to send you along with about 4 stock feednecks. Once you get this worked out and the feednecks in hand will you be writing up a dealer thread?

i have one that's semi local to me. just have to say, i need to borrow it and i'll have it. makes it a little easier.

but yes, when i have the feednecks in hand, i'll have a new thread made up, with more pictures, details and the sale details.

I would like one that works as well as my Ego 11 feedneck. I would buy one. The RPG Sub-Zero looks and works the best, but sometimes I'm rushing between games to switch things out and I don't have time to fumble for an Allen key.
