    This is totally random, but if a pneu version is to be made could you mount the lpr blazer style? That would be sick!

      I need to throw this out so that I may forget about it...

      The original micro-mag was kind of slab sided. It would be interesting if, instead of a removable breach, it had three feed holes bored in it. The marker would come with three different plugs that would all be attached to the marker (screws?). One is the feed neck, one is the detent holder, and the third one is either a blank or another detent holder (optional buy). Then the same parts could be re-arranged for vert feed, warp left, or warp right.

      It is a lot of parts and making it pretty is a whole other problem.

I think a cool Idea would be to have a normal body as a base, but for a little extra maybe have some of the ideas that people have been coming up with as options. (only the good ideas though )

          Forest knows what he is going to do. Just need to get drawings done and a prototype. Then we can release info!!! It's being worked on!! Don't feel bad, I am just as anxious to spill the beans as you are wanting to know.

            Good, thanks. I have to admit that I never made it through whole thread. Did anyone "put" a picatinny rail on the blank cover? Maybe I caught it all subliminally, or autistic-ally.

            At least it's good to know that Forest knows what he wants to do. Now we just have to wait...

                How about a body that the mech frames and froegrips attach directly to... only just as compact/short as a normal ULE.
                Then make a mech frame that holds the valve and body together as well the AGD sear internally.
                Basically, instead of the rail indexing the body, frame, sear, and valve - the frame will do that.
                It'd be shorter and lighter than any AGD automag could have ever been.

                And I know you're PTP and all, but make it easy for DIY pneumag makers to tinker around some.

                I could whip together a CAD (if I don't have one onhand already) illustrating the idea.

                  Just cast my vote. I'm pushing for a retro/sleek look. But with hard lines. Similar to Zaks old SFL posted by doc_Zox would be ideal, but I'm sure it can still be lighter and sleeker. It just needs to look sexy!

                  Looking forward to see the new MicroMag Body!!!

                    I really like that idea, i've been thinking about something like that for a while.
