    My original understanding was that a new drop was being developed specifically for the gas-thru frame that would still use its gas-thru capacity, but I'm not 100% on that.

      I hadn't heard about it.

      I'm guessing if so it'd be a limited quantity, seems like there wouldn't be much demand for them.

      No one uses them any more, SL tanks changed the tank game, much shorter.

        For me, its not the length of the tank that is the problem. Its the girth its always the girth... :|

          The gas thru drop is on the nummech site now. Looks good.

            I think it looks great!
            Here's the link.

            I'm buying one now and waiting for the single-trigger frame to drop.

                So uhh... disassembly, how's that working out. Say if I just need to remove the valve real quick. It looks like I would have to completely remove the frame from the rail and then fight with the little stub of macroline trying to get it to release before I could get to the valve. Or am I mistaken. Also how is the asa. Right now I have a cp on/off and it's the smoothest on/off I have personally experienced, anything like that?

                  2 CCM fittings, 1 long 1 short post. remove the 2 screws on the fitting pull the fittings off and remove the valve like normal. The on/off is more difficult to turn than a cp. It would have made making the on/off way more difficult and much more expensive to machine it like a newer style on/off.

                    Thanks for that.

                    I never thought about doing it that way.

                    I'm building one using this frame, I'm using Azodin fittings but they assemble the same basic way.

                            I just got mine in the mail. It is beautiful. One thing to note is the frame does not work with a twist lock body since the frame doesnt have a hole for the twist lock retaining pin. I also found out that my VL front grip will not work because it hits even the flush style trigger guard.
