Gauging interest

Love it!

I would not do eye covers unless they are set into the body though. This was the main reason, other than price, that few did the old style eye mod. Most say they dont like the way the eye covers disrupt the lines of the body. But there are other options now. I still think internal eyes would work even with an integrated design like this. The only issue is the tooling needed to do the internal eyes is very delicate.

Eye covers would be flush like on a DM7 for example, as for extra milling on a batch of 10-20 it wouldn't bump the price up by much at all

SWEET. You could use the ego detents as well to keep the parts easy to source.

These things never seem to have the same timing as my spending money, but it looks great and I would to see it made.

Looks like a very nice design. Is the feedneck integrated like the Bob Long guns or will it be a separate piece, Angel threaded or possibly Ego style?

Shippings notbad at all all you need to do is do a search on google to get the best price

Feed neck at present is integrated

[BTAutoMag]

and i dont have a problem with that

Looks beautiful - definitely one of the best looking bodies - reminds me of a Bob long to a degree. I guess we Mag owners are far less concerned about feed necks... all the early Blast had removable necks - I love the clamping on my Timmy for example. That said I never had an issue with the hopper/feedneck on my classic mags.
I would love to add one of these bodies to one of my mags, but the price for these custom bodies is always above my budget. I'm watching the thread for price tho...

This is awesome, hope price and wallet has funds for one.

With an integrated feedneck, there is the possibility to get the same issue there was with the xmag wich is not working fine with all hoppers (rotor for exemple, need to be sanded).

That's why I'd prefer a seperated one.

In this way it's all so possible to install a clamping one.

[BTAutoMag]

is there a way to integrate a clamping neck into the design?

I like it! You should call it the X body. Great work there!

Zang it meng !! You stole the words right out of my mouth
first thing i seen was that elongated X
Good looking CAD idea "RENIE"
I don't hear any aluminum being cut lol

Flat rate box prices are ridiculous. IIRC its about $30-40 to ship a small flat rate box to Europe. These could easily fit into a padded envelope and it wouldnt most likely be over $15.

16.96$ USD to ship in a small flatrate box.

I like the clean design of the body ... are you planing a a matching foregrip as well ? I wouldn't call it the X body, might be confused with X mag.
