ULE Body with snap on stock class feed tube?

[knownothingmags]

Sign me up for two for ULE bodies, and one for a PFR/HL body if it gets made. I just don't know how you'd keep that one from sliding forward and backward, since the body shape is the same all the way up and down. But if you do it, I'm signed up.

Also, if there's a choice on material, I'd go for the stuff you made the first proto out of (kevlar impregnated) rather than the flashy red. It's just that my markers are all black and silver.

Also, let me know if there will be a difference between feed necks that take CCI tubes and those that you can just stick a 10rd tube directly in to. If there is a diff, I might mix up my order.

ill make both, a threaded one and a push on with an oring slot in it to hold the tube in,
the red is just for proto, the fiber black that I was using before seems to be what ill end up using to get this out to the public.

on the note of the powerfeed bodies, ill need to figure out how to keep it from sliding forward and back .
ill figure it out when I get there.

ima start a list. if that's ok with everyone

I'm following this thread, and will get a Power feed body version when available...

Looks great. Love the idea and execution.

thanks,
these types of support really help.

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.

noted. and working on the final of this.
I will include a buffer for the rear of the cci tube. so there is downward force resistance.
ill work on aesthetics when I get fit finished.

I like it, seems beefier.

input?

[knownothingmags]

how about this.?

[knownothingmags]

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.

not the helicopter effect

yes to the second part. lol, that's what im working on getting figured out.
I got a super cool surprice in the email the otherday. and it has been keeping me busy.
I get distracted so easily. :P

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

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?
