    do you have a rough estimate as to what you'd charge for milling an Intelli in order to make this fit?
    I am quite sure i'll be getting at least two of these by now...

      It won't be much, probably my minimum which is mostly a setup fee.

          Quick question, likely a stupid one... The ram doesn't "toggle" does it? Still stays out until the trigger is released, like standard pneu-setups?

            Not sure what you mean by toggle, but the ram is returned by the sear.

              It appears that there is nothing holding the ram into place. Is it safe to assume that if you pull the trigger with out the sear in place that the ram will be blown out the back?

                The oring and the system as a whole contains the ram and trigger rod. Yes, the ram will pop out the body if it's not installed in the marker and you trigger the valve, but it actually doesn't get blown/blasted out the back, lol.

                I've thought about a spring return which would contain and return the ram, just waiting to do more testing. So far it's been working great but I haven't had enough air to hammer on it yet.

                My compressor is in route.

                If the design doesn't pan out I'll toss it, but the testing up to this point has been promising...

                  So, as long as you have the trigger pulled back, the ram will stay back?

                    I meant out the back of the cheater not the frame. . . .

                      I know, wasn't implying anything, just trying to be clear as possible.

                        The sear resets the ram, so it stays in the fired position until the on/off pin forces the sear to recock.

                          I understand that. My question was regarding what was always my problem with pneu-frames... Being that the ram stayed in the "fire" position as long as the trigger was held down and this often led to short-stoking. I always thought it'd be nice to have a ram that acted a lot more like a solenoid. One that was actuated and returned (by the sear) before the trigger is released.

                            This design still needs some rigorous testing, I'm not sure the concerns of previous builds will be relevant to this design or not, the flaws and or performance remain to be seen at this point.

                              I'd be interested if it fits your single trigger frame. You probly answered already but I didn't look.

                                Yes, it will fit.

                                The only difference in the frames are the trigger guard.
