Now showing! CF mag body!

[Bpiatt]

ill tank one, have you put thought into making pump bodies? Id deff buy a pump milled CF body, thatd be off the hook!

[skyless]

Yay for ultralight upgrades

Ya count me in one 1 for sure. Ive been watching this thread for a while hoping it would come to life.

rt mag body

think ya would be willing to make one of these for the "old" rt ?
can it be done?

if so ill take one now lol

Not sure about that as the old RT had a larger diameter valve IIRC. We will try and measure an old RT valve and see if its do-able.

Pump milling shouldn't be a problem, it wouldnt affect the CF part at all.

Actually the classic RT has a smaller diameter valve, which I just mesured mine for you, and it measures .995, which I believe is the same diameter fit as the mainbody, so all that would need to be done would be a longer tube, and a larger hole where the banjo bolt goes through
not sure about the Zlock, on the classic RT its cut into the body, not the rail

i want i want....

i really want to have a centerfeedbody on my rt....pls make this lol

[Spider-TW]

That would be cool, but seems almost funny...a body design with interchangeable backs. A couple of different length fronts and a couple of backs could cover all of the center feed mags.

[warpedmephisto]

An RT length tube sounds like it would be do-able, though I have my doubts about the z-lock configuration. CF tube isn't exactly strong in the direction the z-lock would push if the banjo bolt were to fail, so there is a bit of a safety concern there. If Shane-O and me can get ahold of an RT to check out I may be able to come up with a solution.

In the meantime I'm work on finalizing the prints and model for the machinist to quote me. Once I have that quote, I can do some number crunching and see if we can start a preorder. I think thats the safest option for everyone involved with the project. My machinist is pretty quick so after I get the quotes it wouldn't be long before complete units would be ready to ship. Let me work a few things on my end and I'll post an update in a couple of days.

Along with that I'd like to thank everyone who has given input and shown interest in this project! I really enjoy this type of work and it goes right along with what I'm studying in school, so its a perfect match. Once again, thanks guys!

keep me updated! looks awesome!

so is the final body going to look like that milled ULE front in the CAD pic?

UGGH tough deciesion this or the micromag....

[ezcreation]

I will take one - Count me in

CF body

If you can get one for the classic RT count me in

I think the micromag design is very cool. I think the money spent on those bodies will be well preserved in value. I would like to have one and may sign up.

My problem is that I'm not really a pretty marker collector and I have never had a use for anything other than a vertical feed. The rotary breech makes the body useful to many people, but I don't buy new stuff with the idea of selling it to someone else.

The CF body is a fundamental design that I could put on a couple of markers, whereas the micromag begs to be a whole different mag and feed system.

It is great to have choices in mag parts again.

[SSP REAPER]

definately count me in for a CF mag body. I would buy one of these INSTEAD of a 2009 micromag any day of the week.

I was thinking of purchasing this carbon body and slapping one of thoose frames with rails that pnuemagger was designing.. i hope he is still going todo thoose.
