PTP Micromag Design Concepts

[Tracy_ptp]

The barrels you have sound like some protype/limited addition barrels that we produced in the mid 90's. We had a hard time convincing our South African partners that the noise reduction benefits of a ported barel would outweigh the the disadvantages in cleaning should you have a break in the barrel. The stealth series addressed the noise issue very nicley. It was, however, pretty neat to see players screaming like little girls as they ran away from someone shooting an 8" mag Pro-Series barrel screaming "Help me ref, chrono that gun" , and the pleasure that many players took in chasing them down shooting under 280.....

The barrel on that gold gun is just our 2nd gen Pro Series. And we still have a bunch in stock (if anyone needs a twist-lock...).

I have 4 of the original TW barrels,.. one is a 6.5 inch,.. but Im sure its not an Armson. If it is,.. it was a VERY early version,... I got it from Tom Cook. Im pretty sure you know who he is Tracy. Forrest should.

My other barrels are 8's and 10's. All noisy as hell,... still get bothered by the refs to turn my ROF down! LOL!

Anyone at Tunaball,... will remember that blue Micro E-Mag my brother was running of mine.

It puts alot of paint out,.. VERY VERY LOUD like!

that would be sweet if you could get some anno to look like that man

I figure an acid etch before the interior mill work would do the trick

Here it is with a vert ASA, this is a different design that would make it easier to make something that covers the foregrip of an emag lowers or stormwalk frame

Something in this picture doesnt line up right.

Im pretty sure that the rear frame screw to the valve is too far back or maybe the whole picture is not to scale.

Another issue is the battery pack,... pretty sure,.. unless PTP designs a whole new E-Mag lowers (which pretty much would be a whole new gun) then the battery pack can not be moved up due to the front mount ASA/fore grip cut into the body. In that picture,... you have the battery pack up into the body,... which means the internal POS wire needs to have a new slot milled under the belly of the body and down into a channel of the lowers.

Pretty much,.. this is a new gun,.. not a new body.

All I did was touch up the milling around the body pack to sit flush with the Emag lower trigger guard and extend the front of the body (in the second pic) with MSPaint. I took this based off of docs (which I'm almost positive is a shopped image of the one given by Tracy), and those were the only things modified. Nothing else. If I changed the actual functionality of the mag, I really didn't mean to. This was just a representation of what I would've liked the body to look like.

Oh, and Dend

that would be sweet if you could get some anno to look like that man

Can you say, "Magaconda"!?

I am no artist! This would probably be pretty cheap to machine. I think it looks like some kind of alien barcode. I was originally going for the logo from the ~1984 TV series, "V", but it looked too nazi-esque.

I love the simplicity of this design! (Body/rail not sure about the asa)

Also, what ever design is decided on I vote for NO sight rail down the top.

^^^this is my favorite by far^^^

[Dend78]

i got a lil farther on mine but not much

[stoupa]

I would make it similar to the first generation Micromags - boxy and as simple as possible.

[outreach]

i kind of like dends

[robnix]

i kind of like dends

Agreed, I think he's on the right track.

[Pudgey51]

secretweapons idea was cool but i dunno something about it doesnt catch my eye

dends i like ur idea...nice and smooth (for a rough idea) but the valve looks like it stickin out to far...like that it looks like the top in back needs to come back further kinda like the dallara...just throwing out some ideas
