    BW Classic Valve Reg Cap

    ​I have been working on this awhile and yes this is the other part that is planned to go with the rail i made.
    Thread milling kicked my butt but i figured it out. I ended up scraping the first one due to a funky tool path but this one came out great.

    So do you completely eliminate the regulator portion of the valve with this? Or is it still in there just not really doing anything?

            Man I'm really digging your tiny Mag, nice work with the design and machining!
            I saw the picture you took with your buddy noclue119 in San Diego where you're holding the marker and it puts it in perspective of how small it is, looks bad-ass.
            Are you going to machine the tip of the body off?

              Funny you mention that. I was thinking about that this weekend. I am on the fence about it since i know my hand will be up there. maybe i will cut a beater body first and then if i don't like it offer it up to someone else.
              Also thank you!

              Forgot i had not posted those pics yet. Added to first post.

                Maybe leave it overhanging the rail 3/4" or so, just enough to sit on your finger, looks great either way.
                Bonus points for taking the time to 'clock' your logo properly before machining it.

                  I may do something more like the rpg exile body cut and leave a little shelf. We shall see though.
                  Thank you.

                      i second the idea of cutting the front of the body, flush as possible. wonder how a warp left body would look on this set up. also a short barrel would look great on this, like a stella or freak back. I always thought doing a freak with OD like an apex would look great on lots of automags.

                        I can check the warp body when i get home.

                            I want to say it is in the 550 range.

                              What on/off are you running?

                              L10?

                              How does it shot in comparison, the same would be my guess?
