PBX Sluggo Pics! Finally!

[Tunaman]

Well boys and girls...Here they are. Colors coming soon...please disregard the Highrise and the No detents yet. Let me know what you all think. Special thanks to Mel for making this happen, And Tom for your support! Behold! The 68 Automag! Long Live AGD! More pics on the way from PBX.
Please see the Pics below...My hosting server is down. Sorry about that..:( :(

[Load SM5]

Wow! That looks amazing! Great job guys.

:eek:

[MaChu]

Im sorry but I think the pics aren't doing it justice:( I guess its just not my cup of tea:confused: It reminds me of the chimera, just with a better color scheme. Its just too rigid, too many rough angles, but very chrome(a + in my book). I like things more flowing, and smooth, to each their own I guess.

[magman007]

Guys all i can say is WOW:eek: that is hot, altho, i cant really see all the lines it has in chrome... its too shiney! It looks god, beter than the cnc rendition i had seen earlier... now im just waiting for the xtreme depot one... then i will compare!

[cphilip]

NIIIICEEEEEEE!!! Almost prickely shiney looking! I gots goose bumps!

[jah871]

:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: Those look amazing!!! I can't wait to see the colors.

[mag-hatter]

oh my good god in heaven! THATS BEAUTIFUL! how much are they going for?

[ntn4502]

I agree I looks a lot better then I thought it would, great job:)

[bornl33t]

purdy, I'm not really into the modern art thing they got going there... but it's still shinney! and custom!

[darklord]

:eek: purrrrdy, but I don't think I'll need one (won't have a mag soon).... good lookin though, I'm glad some slugs are in production!

[Riotz]

Here are a few pics

[Riotz]

another

[Riotz]

BTW, these are just polished aluminum bodies. They are not annon'd or nickel plated yet.

[Riotz]

another one. more to come

[PzYcO]

really nice job, but as goes some of you else, id rather a "Ripper" style body, or just not so jagged :o

[ChuckWag78]

WOW!!!!!!!!!!:eek:

That is absolutly the best Slugo I've seen on this board. I love the angles and cuts. I never was interested in the sluggo before this, AND it goes over the Valve! GREAT JOB!!

I really can't get over how much I LOVE that Body!

[Little Matt]

Ok, few questions. Price? Availability? Is there a limited production or is there a mass quanity? Will they work on E-mags?

Thas all I got, But it looks great. I didn't like the pictures of it when it was just a cad drawing but now that I see the reall thing I'm impressed.

Later,

[Riotz]

I believe around $200. (for the sluggo)
Mass Production, 1-2 weeks. Depends on Anno.
Yes, they will work on E-mags.

[Dubstar112]

OMG. THAT IS SO NICE!!!!!

Cool.. Good job.. I dont know what to say

[WARPED1]

$200 bucks?! Not bad at all(starts saving his pennies).

[Scooter/Cootie]

:eek:








Great job!

[FutureMagOwner]

riotz i pmed tuna about it too but ill ask here for everyone can this be done to all slugs?(including originals i have an original i dont need that little piece that goes over the valve)

[PzYcO]

id get one, but then id have to sell my warp + revvy + barrel and get a halo + new barrel... too much work :)

[_Spork_1]

does it come annoed for 200 bucks? does it come with a rise for 200 and detents for 200?

i'm selling my body and barrel just for this body, OGMomggmmgomgmgm good god

[omni]

When will these be out for sale?
And for the $200 can we pick custom anno Colours?
Does it come with a Feed Neck?

[Riotz]

Here's another picture of the first one.

[Riotz]

Closer.

[Cliffio]

eh, there doesnt seem to be much method in that maddness


maybe the colors will be a little different


but it looks shiney

[Load SM5]

Can you loose the Izon for a pic of 2? I'd like to see what it looks like with no site.

[Jaymz]

seeing as how it doesnt appear anyone lay claim to this, im first in line! If $200 comes with anno I think im in dude, im putting my freak on the line for you and holding it just because this is so tite!

[Blennidae]

Can you take a pic of it on an Emag rail?

[irbodden]

When seeing it the blue grip and rail, it didn't look in place, however the all chrome pics.... wow, AMAZING. It's seriously beautiful, and I look forward to getting my hands on one eventually....

Reminds me of the Dye Cocker btw, maybe it's just the lack of forgrip and the sightrail...

[ChuckWag78]

I Just Have to say this again I LOVE THIS BODY!!!!

[Mag Master 04]

wow thats very different i dunno if its good or bad?!?! lol it dont fit my digs but its definatly nice...ill stick w the no rise im hopefully gettin soon...(TUNA!) ;)

[Ronin 23]

The feed tube will be a low-rise o-ringed version that will be specially produced by NW Paintball exclusively for PBX. Better loader retension without the potential of cracking the shell like the clamping feed tubes that's become the rage for a lot of other markers. Thanks Nicky!

The colors that will be immediately available are polished black, blue and red. Pewter is being worked on and other custom anodized versions are available on a pre-order basis (deposit required).

We will be coming out with a custom e-Mag using the body and equipped with either a DYE Excel (std.) or a Powerlyte Scepter (special order). And yes, the X-Valve will be matched-anodized as well. Thanks Tom!

AND LAST BUT NOT THE LEAST, a Warp Left body will also be available at around the same time as the vertical feed version. Due to the costs and delays attributable to re-programming the machines, no Warp Right bodies will not be available until the demand justifies the cost (my apologies to the lefty AOers out there).....btw, you don't need to notch your rail to accomodate the warp hose.

Prices given to date on these bodies are not firm. We are still conducting tests as to which detents to use and as such may impact the pricing. We're trying to sort out the superior ones regardless of price so I humbly request your patience on this matter.

I would like to end this post with a comment that I would have written as a response to the question posted in that PB Nation thread..... IT ISN'T 1991, IT'S 2003. AND WE HAVEN'T BEEN NUMBER ONE IN A LONG TIME. NUMBER ONE ISN'T OUR END-ALL AND BE-ALL GOAL....IT'S OUR DESTINATION. SO EITHER GET ON THE FREIGHT TRAIN OR GET ROLLED! BTW TIMMY SHOOTER, WIPE THE PAINT OFF YOUR GOGGLES, PLEEEEEZ;)

[Russ]

That thing looks like it got in a brawl with a gang of rouge end mills...and lost! :eek:

Different strokes for different folks :)

[PsychoBaller]

I just got home from the PBX store as I was there from 4pm till 10pm today. These bodies are HOT HOT HOT..... pics of them are hot, but in person they are even hotter. I'm almost jealous of them and I have an SFL. These bodies are Light, and just plain gorgeous as I got to handle one.

Great Job PBX and TUNA

~da "very impressed" baller

[Ronin 23]

I would like to personally and publicly thank the following AO'ers:

RIOTZ for all his creative contributions and I appreciate your hard-core sense of loyalty. Thanks Bouks!

TUNAMAN for his highly respected technical input on all things 'Mag-alicious'.

AGD JON for his professionalism.....salamat pare.

TK for his faith in us.

Best regards,
/s/ Mel C. Maravilla

[WARPED1]

BTW TIMMY SHOOTER, WIPE THE PAINT OFF YOUR GOGGLES, PLEEEEEZ
I laughed so hard, I nearly soiled myself!:p

[Ronin 23]

Rouge is a make-up cream....maybe you might have meant 'rough'.........lol :)

[Dayspring]

I saw these last night. What beauty... Light, pretty, and shinney!

Way to go Mel, Tuna & PBX.

2003- The year of AGD and PBX!

[Strider]

Nice, the blue railed pics didn't make me think much of them, but that chrome monster is NICE. :)

Reminds me of the Chrome Cold Fusion Cockers...

[Aliens-8-MyDad]

i wants ta see it on an e-mag and mabey with a freak barrel?

[Cristobal]

Yes, Yes, Yes! Way to go guys! I'm liking the way it looks -- a definite departure from the "tube" style (although, for me there are so many cuts on it, that I think I might like the looks better once some annodizing softens the shine out and allows for some shadow-play)

Oh, and though everyone here on AO knows what a "slug" body is, it might not be the best marketing word for everybody else in the world. "Custom Automag Body" might work just as well.

[Russ]

Rouge is a make-up cream....maybe you might have meant 'rough'.........lol Rogue was the word I was looking for, Oops! :o

[DWill]

Darn....im a lefty....no warp right body for me :(

[GatoLoco]

You have got to see these things in person... mmmmmmm tasty

[ChuckWag78]

All I have to say is that the ULE's are nice but they have nothing on these Sluggos!!!!!!!

[Jack & Coke]

WOW!

NICE!!!

[Dark Cloud]

i saw that body in person on tuesday when i aws at Shooters and Looters Paintball field. I met PBX nd tunaman. Damn nice body. I love that milling design too!

[_Spork_1]

phone
the tunamart?
threw pm's?

LMK!

[Vendetta]

Tasty is right. They look like rock candy:cool:

[pito189]

I would like to see some pictures of the body on an E-Mag. PLEASE!!!:D

[omni]

I'm waiting to see some anno'd ones on a E-mag :D

[FlagCarrier]

man!!! now i can't decide between one of those or the new ULEs! :confused: :D

[Mango]

You can blind your opponents with it's lustrous shine!!

[Carbon]

Nice work yall, finaly cocker barrel threading outta the box, for Mag. Anyway, Howbout one milled kinda like an X mag? I mean not exactly, but similar to it, with the flowing lines and such and the cutaway valve portion. Im pretty sure that would be a very hot seller. Do you have a schedule of when youll be producing dust/beadblasted finishes?

[minimag187]

I want one of those guns. NOW!:cool:

[dansim]

it looks like crumpled tinfoil, no flow whats so ever

[Riotz]

As per request. Here is picture of the un-anon'd body with freak and ULE rail. Remember, this is just the polished body right now, it has not been anondized.

[Tunaman]

wow...:o :o Purrrrty...:D

[omni]

That looks really sharp on there. Give me a heads up when you get that body annoed in a colour. Looks sweet, and I think it has flow, it look like a modern art piece :D

[Dayspring]

That's my ULE rail. :D

[Tunaman]

"WAS" your ULE rail...:D :D :D

[Mango]

I personally don't find it too appealing, it looks unfinished and like dansim said, no flow at all. Nice attempt though.

[MaGSkEr]

This'll do wonders for all those people of though mags were too plain. :rolleyes: I love it. mmmm mmmm :D

[litestab]

how you done did that? lol

[Toakes22]

Not sure whether Ilike it or not. I think I need to see one in person. I do have a question though. How much do they weigh?

[litestab]

i think there are too many cuts and it looks ugly. but a nice job milling none the less. all that money into the gun and the hose is covered in what looks like electrical tape? why?

[pito189]

It is so the stainless steel hose doesn't scratch the anno of the battery pack. :rolleyes:

[Dayspring]

That's Riotz's valve & hose. It's just for show. And you cover stainless steel so you don't scratch the body.

As for the body styling- to each their own. If I didn't have an Xmag, this would be going on top. Although, my Emag might get it. Who knows.
