The Rumors of My Death Have Been Greatly Exaggerated.

AR-15's !

Oh, yes. Working on a PDW style (8" barrel, Sig brace, etc) chambered in .45 Auto (will use 30rnd M3 Grease Gun mags). Hope to have something brewing on that project again before the new year.

Also got a channel on YouTube where I put out videos on the work I'm doing in the shop. It's a kinda random mix of whatever I happen to be doing at the moment. Logic Industries YouTube Channel

Glad to see you're still around and sharp as ever, Home.

Whoa, welcome back!

Thank you, sir.

Welcome back! I do like your frames for my fat fingers, and for that I thank you! I hope we're able to see some new stuff from your growth period away from paintball. I love seeing the small resurgence in paintball, a lot of history seems to becoming in full circle.

Barkingspider . . . what a wonderful name. Like Growling Tiger, Hidden Poopstain. lol

Somebody's gotta look out for us rotund fellows, elsewise the skinnies will remake the world in their emaciated image.

Still around - did a "kickstarter" to fund new software and servers so that AO will live on for a long while.

Sweet!

Welcome back!

Hopefully you're back playing again as well as looking at making new stuff.

Hell, EVERYBODY's still here. lol I thought the place had that certain "new server smell".

I'm gonna dust off some stuff I had put aside when I left for the dreaded Day Job™, so we'll see if something new can come from that.

Playing will be much harder. ALL my guys are scattered to the winds. Some got married, some died (for the purposes of paintball, essentially the same thing as getting married), two or three joined the Army/Marines and are now in different countries, etc, and the closest walk-on field is ~100 miles away.

On the up side, all that money I would have spent on paint instead gets spent on tools and ammo (which is similar to paint, only with a copper jacket ).

Besides, to be perfectly honest, I'm not sure my knees are up to it anymore. I'm a lot closer to 40 than I was when I left. lol

I didnt know you were that young.....

My oldest son turned 33 this month.

I'm playing Saturday Lord willing and the creek dont rise.

Supposed to be a high of 92 Saturday.

Yeah, I'm 36 this year. Just a whipper snapper to some folks, but I've noticed that my knees seem to think that they're closer to 60 than 40.

I went out shooting last weekend, and it was like 98 degrees that day. I had to wring out my shorts before I went inside at the end of the day. lol

I could probably pull it off, but if I spent much time playing from my knees like I did years ago, I know I'd be feeling it the next day.

Spent too much time in the shop without anti-stress mats, several years into the machining thing at least before it dawned on me why my knees and feet hurt so much all the time.

Now I've got 'em everywhere, but the damage might already be done.

Losing weight will help too, but what can I say, I like cheeseburgers and BBQ.

Lost about 40LBS over the holidays this last year, but had to get (or rather notice and then get rid of) cancer to pull that off. That's a ****ty weight loss plan, BTW, I do not recommend it.

Just now starting to get back on song again, so almost seven months to get over that. Spent almost eight weeks under doctor's orders not to lift anything over 10lbs after my surgery (and unable to sit at my computer either, so it was stretched out on a recliner with various bits propped up here and there to reduce swelling). You would not believe how many Hallmark movies fit into eight weeks. I'm just gonna leave it at that. lol

Anyway, suffice to say that I'm glad to be back up and around and working out in the shop again. A man can go plum stir crazy being forced to sit still for that long with nothing to do but watching basic cable.

[Nobody]

Glad you're back.

Happy that your health issues/problems are behind you.

I too have bad knees, but 10 years ago, i was smart enough to start playing with knee pads and they help immensely. Hell, i am starting to look at those silly comfort old people's shoes that Ringo Starr is hawking. Just because being on my feet for 9 hours a day my feet can't take it anymore.

But i just want to say, thanks for killing the resale value of all your old UMFs out there

Can't wait to see what else you have brewing. Welcome back.

"Knee problems" had the same problem for the past 6 years or so. Besides my age, it's probably due to all the years of going heavy on squats in the gym and working construction for most of my adult life.
Started taking a supplement called MSM along with vitamin C that is necessary in order to absorb the MSM. Literally over night I was able to do deep knee bends (no weight) without any pain.
After about 6 months of taking it religiously, my knees rarely hurt except on occasion after leg days in the gym.

I'm also on a regiment of vitamins and various supplements that has given me a new lease on life.

Hmmmm . . .

Gonna have to look into this stuff.

Mine aren't so bad that I can't get around, but after a full day in the shop, they hurt even just setting around the house.

Thanks for the tip.

Don't tell the doctors that though...

Umf ii !!!

Umf ii !!!

Perhaps, yes.

Perhaps, yes.

If you want to design the UMF II to be a drop in pneu-mag using my T-Rex assembly I'll share the necessary geometry. All you need to do is make the top cavity a smidgen wider and longer toward the trigger. Plus you need to add a 6-32 threaded tab in the back of the frame. There is plenty of room for the change, just a thought...




This is the 6-32 mounting tab for the T-Rex.

Damn, that's too good a deal to pass up.

Email me the specs and I'll get started on the new drawings.

Might make a few other changes as well, to differentiate the new from the old, make 'em a little slicker looking, etc.

Thank you for the generous offer Luke, I appreciate it, and I expect that the customer base will too.

Cooperation between the aftermarket mfgs makes mix-n-match builds much more seamless for the end user.
