New XMT Classic RT Body Style

[snoopay700]

I never liked those weird body fronts on classic RT's (or Mini Mags either).

For that remark you're going to be poked by the Gardner's with ptichforks for all eternity when you die. How dare you question His creation?

Ironic the difference in outlooks. I'm going out of my way to design a non banjo bolt rt around the styling lines of my beloved classic rt.

This does look nice though and I'm glad the owner likes it.

All that stuff in the front is good for its scratching your barrels up.

If it wasn't for all the holes in the front where wound you stick the weeds and leaves for camouflage? Really what kinda sniper are you if you don't spend 30 mins crawling through the brush wearing 40 lb.s of ghilli suite and 1/2 a forest with you in 95* weather? LMAO.

That looks slick

Since you've posted this twice I assume you have had issues with minimag and rt bodies? My dye ultralite looks almost as clean today as it did back in the late 90s. Don't think there is a scratch on it from the classicRT vented front.

I actually like the look of what was done, I just like the original look more. It's one of the main reasons I own an RT over an X-valved mag.

First and foremost I had this done to the body because in my humble opinion the RT and Minimag fronts are just plain ugly.

Second this will lighten it some, probably not enough to notice , but just an added bonus.

Third, of course you would be hard pressed to hurt a twist lock barrel, but if you slide a dust black or nicely anodized cocker barrel down that tunnel enough you will scratch it, just a matter of time.

I guess to each his own.

I had what I thought was a good idea, and now that it's a reality I do really like it.

Now to get it anodized.

Waiting for FX to get back to me.

Apparently he's been under the weather with kidney stones for a few days.

Got a box in the mail today from FX Anodizing when I got home from paintball.

Its a work in progress, dont like the feedneck, the macro fitting on the foregrip needs something different, and I havent drilled the Triton for the banjo bolt yet........,

i'm liking it.

That's the one instance i think a super-low, no-rise feedneck would look great.
Looks really sharp as is.

Agreed, I have a CCM low rise and it wont tighten down enough on the Spire.

And apparently A Plus is no longer making feednecks and such.

Guess I'll try and track down a sub zero.

Still waffling on the frame, I have a mini vert and an Intelliframe, I'm thinking I'll probably end up using the Intelliframe.

And I got to get a 45 degree street elbow and a straight macro fitting for the bottom of the foregrip, because of the dropkick.

[bowcycle]

I know we all like throwing our cool stuff out there for the world to see, but I think the 45* frame of the intelli will better compliment the build. I think the lines of the build overall just aren't asking for a vert frame.

I personally love the Empire universal feedneck. Its the Vanquish or upgraded Axe one. Never had a problem tightening down on my spire. Allen, if you like them, i have adapters for them.
