Whatever is durable and still relatively light. I'm a fan of plastic composites as well as metal.

Solid gold would be nice... How about making a marker out of annealed steel? That'd look sweet, though it would probably dirty up everything you touched with it unless you polished it real good.

Seriously, though, probably aluminum. Light, durable (if it's not that poop SP uses), and takes ano. What more could you want? Maybe make the whole thing out of carbon fiber. DeadlyWind is probably working on it, they've got a CF fetish.

[Ruler_Mark]

a CF mag body woud be hot.

[SR_matt]

my priorities are as follows

-ability to have and hold tolerance
-durability (kinda the same as the first)
-weight
-looks

if something looks good but cant hold up at all you might as well just put on a tux and throw paint if your worried that much about looks

AL is probably the best thing that we can really use at this point, some plastics might end up being better but we need to find those plastics, ceramics (if made the right way) might work well too but they would be expensive as anything. CF is getting more and more expensive and its really not that easy to work compared to AL, also the tolerances will be held by the resin more so than the CF itself.

it would be easier and more efficient to develop smaller marker designs than to try to replace parts with a crazy new material (not that it wouldnt be cool and anything but im just talking about efficiency).

what ideas are you having???

What about the FINAL finish, if ur gonna anno,paint dip(whateveru do ) do u want alum stainless etc. ???

[FOG]

Im thinkin ALUM. Is the material of choice,judging by the responses here and @ MCB

At least for the majority of people.

YES ?

[Ninjeff]

ALUM seems to be the way to go.

[Glickman]

seconded on the alum.


far as the ano though, im a fan of the digital urban camo

[senghing27]

Solid Gold....

yea,, i still think carbon fiber would be awesome

[questionful]

Titanium mainbody.

Barrel? Brass internal surface, CF core, titanium sleeve.

aluminum for the rest.

i think Aluminum fits all the bills here, unles an excesively durable component is needed.

alum is light, and can be milled lighter

very stong strength to weight ratio

durable

high grade alum looks great annod.

not to mention easy to work with, readily available and decently priced.
