    Just a thought....
    Would it at all be possible to use these on a classic RT? I wonder if both the RT rail and the top of this frame were ported where the air-thru passage sits then you would have a true hose-less mag. Much like the sleeper pneumag setups between the asa and bottom of the frame where o-rings are used to create a sealed passage.

    The air port on these are positioned just behind the sear and before the field-strip screw which makes me think this just might work.

      I went down this rabit hole myself and the biggest issue i ran into was trying to have the frame forward enough to not feel like it was just bolted on, and have enough room for the sear to function.

      It is tougher than one would think.

        Lots of people have asked about RT classic compatibility. For the moment the only thing we can offer is drilling the existing frames so they can be used with the larger banjo thumbscrew, but would still use an external airline.
        Having said that, I was able to grab measurements from a friend's marker, so there is possibility of making a true hoseless RT classic version in the future. However I don't want anyone to get hopes up since I don't know if we'll ever get around to it, there may not be enough demand to justify the variation. I'd like to see a single trigger version as well, since there seems to be more interest in single trigger compared to RT classic (or both). But who knows.

        Ironically the original idea with removeable trigger guard was to allow support for a single trigger guard kit. But it just didn't work out - the double trigger frame design is too chunky compared to a nice thin single guard, I can't easily swap between the two. So it's back to the drawing board for that one. The good news is that a proposed single guard frame is a fairly minor change from the existing manufacturing, so there's a high chance that we'll get them made.

        No trigger at the moment...I looked into it, but if we made triggers then they would just be replicas of existing popular designs that already work soooo good.

        We'll have a gas-thru drop forward available for this in the upcoming weeks, since people asked about that from the beginning :)

          I noticed you went with a different knob design on the production version, is that cross-compatible with the your X7 Phenom ASA? The knobs on the two I have are really hard to turn while pressurised.

          Looking forward to the drop forward for this as well!

            They also make a T-slot drop, that would look great on this.

              Can't wait to see some builds with this gripframe. I'm liking the price, but I'm really wanting a matching body with it. Please tell me the designs weren't one offs.... I would buy a scan of your vertebrae andy!! lol

                They're kinda in the queue but we don't have a timeframe right now. It depends on the demand. I'd also like to get more designs going but the design work is where projects go to die (lol). The only other one that I've drawn up is an Edge-mag body like the ones we made for AxePro, but that one would take some special work since they're made differently. I'd like to see it happen though...

                @Kapyrna - the knob is very similar but not directly compatible, BUT we actually made a couple knurled versions for the X7 ASA which might be right up your alley. Send me an email!

                        Why would they?

                            Would a mounting adapter cram in there? or is the geometry just ill suited..

                              Honestly I was just guessing based on the pictures you posted. I'm not sure what all is going on with the built in airlines and such. Really it was just the short answer because I know you have one in the works.

                              My frames come with a built in mounting tab, but the frames I've modified all have a mounting bar like AGD's Intelli frame to attach a mounting tab to. Plus the T-Rex LP air is routed in through the bottom of the valve.

                              Here are the basics>
                              t rex mounts.jpg

                              I'll gladly share mounting specs for the T-Rex. The trigger pin is an off the shelf dowel pin so that's a non issue if a frame is non AGD spec in that area.

                                Luke, would you be able to mod one to fit a t rex?
