Classic RT: Vert Feed Body

Throughout my research I have also found another example of an Automag RT Classic Vert feed body. This one is from 2001 from PBN.

I believe that many of the vert feed bodies were made as prototypes and for team guns for testing purposes. I think I have been able to confirm that this gun from 2001 was later sold to John Dresser of Pbnation.com while he was restoring RT00001. I believe the Smear Kit Sight rail and drop
forward match both guns.



Unfortunately, in 2010 John sent the body to get the vert feed removed and modded. It was later powdercoated and a clamping feedneck added.



Automags.org member Ando has been the lead investigator to track down another example, but no other Vert RT's have been found so far. If you have any information feel free to comment below.
