      I actually had this idea about a month ago. To make ionish body kits for the ule body.

      I then told one of my AO'er friends about the idea. He felt that no self respecting mag owner would paste some plastic molding over there beloved gun. If we wanted ions we would buy ions.

      It would be pretty easy to make them 1 piece. You just take the body off and the feed neck off. Slip the body kit over the ule body and put everything back together. The rail and feedneck would hold everything in place.

      So since we and it sounds like many others have had the same idea. And nobody has run with the idea. It must be retarded.

      If you do decide to run with this I have a buddy who does nothing but send items over seas to be made out of plastic for very cheap. Perhaps if you had a cad drawing, mold, whatever these could be done pretty easily.

        Could you imagine how sweet this gun would look with a barrel that was just a few inches shorter? So that the barrel wasn't even visible.

        Then throw a stock class feed on it so that there is no hopper.

        Make it into a pump so that every time you go to shoot it looks like you are chocking your chicken.

            I dont plan on using plastic for finished the product, just to try and get a feel for how to work it. Im headed over to my buddies shop today to brainstorm (or tardstorm as the case may be).

                          Its been rolling around in a few peoples head apparently, even my own several months ago... just didnt make it to the front burner so too speak (not just yet anywho).

                          There seems to be a market out there, even if it is a small one... but get rolling with something ubercool and even the naysayers will come on board.

                          Looking forward to what you come up with here, at least let us know when your dropping it in the MOTM.

                            Aircraft aluminum chickens? With red to yellow anno?

                            It's ok as long as it's not an electronic chicken of any kind.
