      the way ule bodies are toward the feed neck hole, its not cylindrical anymore in that area, has a square face to it. and I use that to contain the "snap on legs" so the part isn't able to slide forward or back very easily

        and securing it to the body. which I know how to do, just hard to find the time
        In the video, it seems pretty secure. I'm sure once there's a rail attached to the body, the side-to-side play will be less of an issue, since the legs will hit the rail and prevent rotation.

            is this going to be a cram & jam or an adapter for other stockclass feed tubes?

            You know, there could be another market with the T2 shooters out there as well...

              its going to be a cram and jam for now.
              I can always later on change stuff up in a different design and do something different.

                That's a pretty cool idea. I bet it would be useful for someone not wanting to buy a warp feed body also.

                  You could also basically make another ring that went around the stock class tube and clipped on to the back part of the body. That would increase overall stability, and if you made it snug enough it would also help to prevent any potential twisting (and people worrying about twisting). It would also be bullet-proof that way. Right now, the thing may come off if it gets hit by a direct shot towards the back end of the feed tube; with another anchor point, it wouldn't budge.

                  When can we buy these?

                    its not the twisting im worrying about,
                    its if it rotates around the body.

                      rotating around the body like a helicopter blade or a like an over-under shotgun spinning around the axis of shooting?

                      the rear clip would address the helicopter effect. as long as the clips are just long enough to make contact with the rail (particularly a standard AM/MM rail), the over-under spin would be addressed. the real clip would only play a small effect.

                        yes to the second part. lol, that's what im working on getting figured out.

                        I get distracted so easily. :P

                              I like it, seems beefier.

                                looks ready to field test. i'll volunteer as a beta tester!

                                i will say that i like the look of the first one better than the second one though. the girth of the upper diameter seems massive and sort of degrades the sex appeal of the trim stock class mag. it also still seems to me that you need something further back to prevent twist and also to compensate for downward pressure applied to the top of the CCI feed tube towards where you'd feed the balls in. repeated wiggling or downward bumps on that part of the tube seems like it might degrade the threading on the clip mount to the point that it's useless and no longer holds the feed tube sufficiently.

                                that said, i get that the whole thing needs to be pretty beefy to stand up to game after game.
