    I ask because the adapters that someone here made a while back are now very difficult to find, but still very useful for springfeed projects.
    If I can mount an Empire springfeed on that feedneck part, I'll buy a few of them and I think many others would too.
    You mean these?

      Completely forgot, but another reason to keep that body for now: A scrap body to design a pump!

      I have an idea as to how it might be done (would work on any unibody or similar, but would have a more visible pump mechanism though) and it would probably use something closer to an autococker pumpkit due to placement of the pump rod.

        I will design a pump marker, but this platform will need to be reworked specifically with a pump in mind. Once you see the design in full you will understand why. I really don't need to fool with this particular body, if you saw my work bench you would see why.

            or you could make an insert plate that has the channel profile and just mill the underneath out.
            and mount it.
            but that's probably wrong.

              For the weight this thing is at I suspect the under side of this thing is gutted already.

                right but it being a pump those 2D paths can be modified.

                      Not sure what a tool path has to do with the ability to pump mill the current design?
                      I have already stated that it is not possible on this body as it is currently machined. It would be the same situation as trying to pump mill a rail that has been ule milled, only worse. Yes, (yes) it can in theory be done but it's easier just to machine a new rail or buy one that is not ule milled. I'm sure if someone wanted to put a great deal of effort and money into figuring out how to do it, it would be possible. But it would be easier and cost much less just to machine another slug body with the intent of building a pump body. Which was my point from the beginning with this particular prototype body.

                        yeah ,
                        I responded wrong . yes correct you can not put material back.

I would want to make a few small adjustments to the design to fit the Empire feedneck perfectly but no big deal. I'll make and stock them (no preorder) as long as I'm not stepping on rivers toes.

                              Hey thank you for the consideration...I'm cool with it I have too much going on with kids sports and work

                                Ok. I have read entire thread and cannot find a price for an entire marker. I probably missed as reading is not my strong suit. Shooting dayspring is. Can someone please let me in on the secret.
