          Also, "Ultra ULE milled" and a custom feed port.
          100% doable.

              Exactly. I really don't expect much interest hence the remark >>
              At the very least this is my next marker.
              It's just what I like, simple and clean. It really does not matter if it ends up being a one off, this will be the next marker I field. The bigger picture is in house made slug bodies.

                  I am still waiting to see what you have now... Dreams of what you could do are nice but what you and have done matter more.

                  So where you looking at an old Shocktech catalog when you came up with it? Just curious to see where your process starts.

                    Fair question even if there is an air of sarcasm in your tone () the process starts with what I like not what I think everyone else like.

                    I honestly never expected any support for this design, my best expectations would be a few at the most. But for this project it's about proof of functional design nothing more. Making an over the valve full length slug body on a lathe is a trick in itself for most machine shops. Yes, completely doable for the competent shops like XMT and whoever AGD used but not easy. Not sure if anyone has attempted a full length slug body on a VMC but I believe it's doable at this point.

                    More to the point, this design goes back years>>>

                    (See post 100 and 101) it's inspiration from of a concept that nmib submitted to the MM2k9 project. He gave me permission to borrow from the design. Not sure if his pictures are still up (they didn't load) but its been hanging on my bulletin board since 2007.

                      this needs a square cram and jam that threads on, and looks way awesome.

                          Dougs middle name is sarcasm, I think its a New Jersey thing maybe...

                          I vote for the smooth gun.

                          You do get your products to market much faster than that other guy with his own badge.

                            This kind of body style isn't my thing either, but that's just my personal taste.

                            That being said, I'm pretty excited about the notion of full body slug. It promises for exiting things in the future, so keep up what you're doing.

                              I like it a lot, I think the real steal lines work really well with a rail/body design. What's old is new again, like the stripling on the new twister frames and Danny Love releasing a new body at shocktech.

                              I think everything else I've seen is a rehash of a deadly winds design or another variation somewhere between a ripper and a twister. This is original and looks awesome.

                              Plus, you gotta accentuate what you have to work with, more complex designs need a crazy amount of axis's and ridiculously complex toolpaths.

                              It reminds me of a high end 1911 without trying to be milsim or another duck ripoff.
