    Most mag rails have that sear centering zig-zag. For printing, you could just throw in a nub on each side.

    On your sydarm rail, you could put a short picatinny extension, for your laser, don-cha-no.
    I think it will hold up.
    ill put it through its paces some more.

    that's why I made this thread to get ideas and input.
    when you explain stuff like that it helps a lot to give me ideas on how to test this stuff.

        yes, have to do some more testing on it.
        but the design will put the forgrip right next to the trigger guard.

          Nice and interesting idea.

          I could be for one depending on price.

          I'd really like to see it on one of my markers and see how it works !

          Will you do an AM/MM length, am/mm sear with slot for foregrip ? Oups I didn't saw Magman asked almost the same and you already answered for the slot !

          For the centering zig zag, is there an interest to have a zig zag ? Why not having straight line letting the same room for the sear as the zig zag do ? This could simplify the printing .

            when I design the am/mm type sear rails they will have the zig zag. its rt im not sure yet still need to test. most likely they will all have the zig zag

                im working with someone here in CA to help me with a printed version of rail. and more...., as long as the More holds up to paintball abuse.

                what are you guys looking for in a printed rail?
                I know the sidearm rail I made is minimal.
                ideas. lets go. I don't want to disappoint.. if these come to market.

                1ST off these will NOT have zlock pin channels.
                they will NOT stop your valve from unscrewing if you have not tightened them properly, or if an occurrence unwinds your back half of the valve, it will unwind with no restrictions from my rails.

                  anymore ideas
                  just thought I would hit this up since I am upgrading my existing printer, this weekend.

                  its amazing you can print your own upgrades. lol

                  just to be able to print from .1 mm down to .05 mm

                    What type of printer do you use? Any chance you will upload the model to thingiverse?

                      probably not.

                            printing a "square" style rail for testing with foregrip.
                            its strong enough for the foregrip, its only long enough to accommodate a foregrip at this time.
