    Hybrid RTP Rails

    NOTE: When using the Hybrid rail on an AGD Emag the new solenoid plunger measurement is 2.9336" to 2.9386"

    Introducing the new Hybrid RTP Rail.
    The new design features a redesigned sear pin that is an off the shelf dowel pin which uses two 4-40 set screws to hold it in place.
    Manufactured slug rail size is as follows: 9.2" long, 1.25" wide, and .572" thick
    Finished rails can be as long as the AGD ULE body.
    Its the thickness of an Automag rail and the length of the Original RTP rail and wide enough to cover many designs.
    Rails can be used with twistlock barrels, stainless steel and ULE bodies.
    A sear pin as short as 0.625" can be used. Rail designs will no longer be dictated by the factory sear pin.
    All rails will be sold with replacement sear pins and hardware.
    For those that don't know, all Lc Rails are manufactured from slug rails, they're the first step in all rail designs.
    Manufacturing of the slug rails begin tomorrow and will finish up this coming week.
    In the past, there were rail designs that were only available for the old Automag rails, now all those designs can be made from these slugs.

      I would need the CAD file and permission from the owner to do them.

      Not sure, this is just an 1/8" hole drilled all the way through the rail.

            How about doing a homage to the old eclipse style of milling to mag rails. A Lukes custom version of something done years ago might be interesting.

                The ones I've seen just have some notches on the back end of the rail, really nothing special, at least to me.




                Whats the point of the threadless sear pin ?

                To be able to better symmetrically mill both sides of the rail ?

                  I have an eclipse mag that i can put up photos of later for ya... or I could send you to measure up.

                  I have some design ideas... mostly stuff like an even narrower logic alpha, and a rail that is windowed.

                  Something like this is what im lookin for:

                        Im thinking minimalist... rear valve channel isnt needed. Foregrip isnt needed. Just mill it down to just whats in the box...20180819_224034.jpg

                          Sear pins dictate rail design and even some bodies, all design concepts revolve around it, even the classic AM rail. Form follows function so there's no way around it.

                          The ability to run a 5/8" long sear pin removes a great deal of design limitations.
                          It also allows me to narrow the thickness of the RTP rail down to the size of a classic Automag rail. The factory RTP rail is thicker to make room for the threaded sear pin.

                          Also, I think the best looking rail designs are done on the AM rail, the thinner rail just looks nicer IMO.

                            That's a easy redesign, we can completely remove the center pop out around the sear, just run the same width front to back, like a dog bone.
