AO: We are back from the dead... again! After an 18 day outage, we are finally alive and well. Who knew how complicated updating software/databases from 2008 would be. I still have alot of tweaks to make, but my main goal was getting everything patched and updated to 2026.
Vbulletin 6 has changed alot since 2008 so we will have a ton of new features to dig into.
Wow, good job. Though you said you put thought into your designs?
That is what everyone wants, a big slot on the side to get shot in and with the sear axle retention system, it will take twice as long to clean, cause if you get shot at the hands, everything will get paint on it. And heaven forbid if you play in the mud or even in sandy areas. Not even Roguefactor would make something so ridiculous.
Just a question, when you make these rails will they all be ule milled, is it possible to have them pump milled?
Some can be pump milled just depends on the design. I can change the ULE milling on those rails so they can be pump milled 'now or later' and it doesn't really change the weight much. I can offer a discount to pump mill them too.
If you're asking specifically about the Armadas, yes they can be pump milled..
I can add the internal airline milling for free too, I'll just include that as a standard feature.
Thank you for these answers by the way. If you had lead with this, showing that the newer style pin for RT Pro sears is cheaper and easier to come by locally, that would have definitely satisfied my curiosity for why the change. May not be legacy but it definitely makes sense to go towards something thats a couple bucks locally for customers rather than them having to track down a sear screw for 7 bucks from AGD plus shipping.
Did you completely ignore the very first post, all of this was stated from the get go, pricing was stated a little later.
Since there seems to be some confusion, my sear pins are free with every rail purchase.
Rail prices for the Hybird will remain the same price they've been since I first started making rails from billit.
Replacement pins should be available at all hardware stores that carry dowel pins, like ACE Hardware. I pay .15 cents each for the pins I buy online, but they may cost a $1 locally.
In a pinch, you could cut down a standard 1/8" drill bit, grind to length to get you back on the field. I use to do this with lost AM sear pins.
Screws are 4-40 thread, the exact set screw AGD uses for their safety, common and available at ACE Hardware.
The Hybrid sear pin and screws are the same pin I use for all my grip frame trigger pins and screws.
The same pin I use for the T-Rex trigger rod.
And the same pin and screws I use for the Deflator detent.

Gentlemen, I currently have the CAD work done for the following rails:
Epsilon 8"
Beta 8"
Beta 9.1"
Ultralight 8"
Ultra Mini 5.69"
I know there's several requests for non standard designs which we'll address soon, but is there any other standard rails you are looking for right away?
If I can sell at least 3 or 4 of the Eclipse style rail I can do those without any design fees. Hopefully I can get confirmation on that by early tomorrow.
I'll be working on the dealer thread as soon as I get caught up. I've decided to concentrate on the easy stuff up front and work on new designs a little later.
I believe I addressed most of your questions of possible rail designs, if I missed any we can pick them up once I get caught up with the first prototypes. I have plenty of slug rails on hand now so there should be no worries about missing out.
My apologies to you guys that were actually helping out here..
Speaking of designs that look good...
El Panda said he's out, can't make rails anymore. Is there a chance you would be willing to take a stab at a RT Pro Nocturnal-esque rail? Your Armada rail (if i am even remembering that name right) came really close to having those sleek curves in it, would love to see something closer to what he did with those am/mm nocturnals and I don't feel like cutting my chord v2 to fit the am/mm length.
