    So this is not gonna be a ULE body made to the Classic RT specs? I would like to see a replacement body to replace the stock body. One with all the features of the of the other ULEs. Cocker threaded, threaded feedneck and detents.

      I would love o get an aluminum classic RT body. I have been using my classic ALOT recently and would buy one from you if you make it. I'll even send you my classic RT body to use if you need it.

        i would honestly consider picking up a classic RT if the body were a direct replacement for it.

          From a numbers standpoint, seems to me, you'd likely sell less remaking a standard twist lock body, even if its vert feed.

          No one has an classic RT body that takes cocker threads (without an adapter).

          That would be new, as would be a replaceable vert feedneck and detents, just like a ULE body.

            Direct replacement & vert feed. I would be interested in one for sure if not two.

            Only thing I dont like on the MM body is the blocky area around the feedneck/detents.

              I might make several versions if i do it. Twist lock vert feed and cocker thread vert feed.
              Doing a power feed is really not possible unless it bolted on. You cannot weld something like that on because if you were to get it anodized it would show. There would be light spots by the welds.

              The only reason i see for doing the twist lock bodies is so those with special anoo guns can run their matching barrel.

                Yes it will be an aluminum center feed version of the classic RT body. I might also make aluminum bodies (that fit all automags) with the same front holes in them.

                  I would get on a pre-order for this ^

                    I really like the idea of a classic RT body redux. Any chance we will see an updated classic RT rail?

                      I like the idea of a warp-left, Classic RT body, with the MM front slots rather than the RT-style...

                        -Made from high strength 7075 aluminum
                        -Threaded for dual angel detents
                        -Uses autococker threaded barrels
                        -Angel feedneck threads
                        -includes stainless washer and c-clip installed?


                        I'm in.

                        It would be great if you can provide an angel threaded feed tube (like PTP did on the MM2k9).
                        I'm not a fan of the CCMs and it is hard to get other nice angel threaded feed necks since aps passed away.
                        With an extra feed tube we would have the oportunity to mount Eclipse clamping feed necks for example.

                          Hmmm this interests me, now add a new triger frame a channel for the air to run from the asa (like a sleeper pneumag asa) to the banjo bolt, then the price of classic r/t's would go up quiet a bit.

                            I would probably be interested in one. I wouldn't really want it to be much different than the original. The only difference(s) I would want would be vert feed with Angel feedneck threading and maybe 'cocker barrel threading (I'm still on the fence about the barrel). I'd like everything else to remain the same, so there are no compatibility issues with the RT Classic valve and rail.

                              This is pretty much exactly what I had in mind as well, along with an updated rail to remove the six 1/8 NPT air fittings and the wings. I'd love the crap out of that.
