New Proto Gun Body Need Your Design Help!!!

[einhander619]

yeah, they don't understand how cool it is to only have to turn a barrel a quarter turn to get it off. But then again, with a lvl 10, you don't really need to worry about messing with your barrel too much! I just hope us RT classic shooters won't get passed by in this whole thing. If I could lighten it up a bit with an aluminum body, my RT would be perfect.

i would have really loved 4 this to be a 1pc. body and loose the body rail.. but if not i think it should be remade.. make it smaller. Also i loke daves drawings alot.. and maybe i think when this is done Agd should sell the body and body rail as one.. and diff feed styles should be able 2 be bought.. ( i think the Extreem body is awesome b-c u can change the feed.. and it shows alot in the back.. ) it would be great 2 have a non electro extreem.. i would by an extreem but i really dont wanna go electro, im sure some people could agree

it needs ripper milling

I totally BLOW at photoshop

at least when it comes to this. I had no idea how to give it a mill look.

But I hope you guys can understand my concept, I think it would look really good, of course my pic don't


But just picture it in your head.

you know what..i just realized that it's using an emag/rtpro rail...whoa...strange...oh well..

[Gotenks]

um a little better (i think)

actually I think it would be better if the stripes progresses even more bigger each step when it gets farther back, I will remake it tomorrow.

pretty long post, heh??

i like alot of the sketchs, and I think it was Jasons work the best. all had great ideas.

i just want to get some info from some guys here.

-is this still a idea for ADG. will this actually be goin into production some time soon?

-will this fit the classics? (ie minis, classic mags?

-what type of threads? keep the twist lock if ya can!

-any idea on prices? (i know they arent in production so this may be tough )

on a different note, i love this idea. it is a great idea that can move away from the tube design, though i love the simplicity of the originals.

also, which not have these new costums longer in the front like a MINI's body. so the barrel is covered some. would offer more space to mill, and possibly a longer fade for annoing..

just some thoughts

since i seem to be the Grand Poobah of the Supermag i'll try and answer all of your questions, Felony:


1. As far as Production...who knows? Tom always says Christmas to me...so..well..I'll jus say Christmas!

2. Yes, it'll fit classics..it's designed to spiffy up the standard mag.

3. Nope...no twist-lock. Cocker threads are the wave of the future.

4. Prices...well..I've never asked Tom that and i'm sure he doesn't even know all that well.

Like I said before bu nobody seemed to acknowledge my post, why not incorperate both the cocker threads and the mag twist lock, it may not be possible but its an idea, just something to think about.

[felony]

thanks for that info Dirty!

cleared some stuff up for me!

Acecl does have a decent idea; why not make a breech that can be swapped or chosen at purchase. make the new body 10 more dollars, i wouldnt care if it cost a few bucks more if i could keep twist lock.

but back to the design..

i think it should have some extension past the forgrip, like the minimags/RTPs. that would give some more options for milling. i also like how the reg on the extreme is enclosed/encapsulated(as stated previously) it makes a nice sleek effect.

just my .02 cents.. maybe ill try and make a quick design

Thank you felony, someone finaly saw my post, i dont see why its not possible to have an interghangeable peice so that people could use what ever thread type they desire.

[felony]

im not sure how it would work, but if it did, that is a fine idea. its not that i have invested tons of money into twist lock barrels, but some have. spending more money on barrels after spending maybe 200 bucks on a body wont sell some consumers.

to me, it would make it easier on us, and on the general paintball public, already shooting mags. just makes sense to me.

anywho, i think i have a pretty good idea for the new body.

it is kinda like einhander619's design; here is his design...



i really like the idea of having something over a standard mag tube body.

my idea is a black teflon body with smooth flames rising up from the body rail to the middle of the mag body.

in a sense, it is kinda like einhander's but with flames that enfulf the body and the regulator. the main body would be black to bring out the colors of course..

if anyone can do this, please try it, id appreciate it..


just a thought.

thanks

einhander619 that is awesome! sorry, havne't really kept up on this thread, but regardless, that looks amazing. if that ends up being a design you can order i'll be one of the first names on the list.

Do you mean using some steel in the body? i think the point was a lighter more millable body. steel wont do too well since we already got our tubes..wich i like very much

[Mag89]

Looks very good.
