Design and Concept Process. Extreme E-mag Milling

[JanStah]

Ask and you shall receive!!!

One Dark Emag Extreme.



I really prefer the old style of dark angels. The new ones just dont do it for me. I still reckon that with the possible exception of the Ripper Angel, the Dark Angel LCD is the finest looking paintball gun ever made.

Enjoy.

Restore Sight rail

Using a warp feed set up now clears the top of the gun so using a sight (red dot, whatever) is a viable option. I urge you not to mill the sight rail (it looks like the middle of the sight rail has been taken out) so that one could have the option of using any kind of sight (the different lengths of the mounts) and install the sight anywhere along the top.

In terms of milling, I prefer the angular milling done by Eclipse (ie Eclipse Bushmaster). How about enlarging the "slot" milling that you have on the rear, right of the body and duplicating it on the left side. I personally don't like the smaller, grove or teardrop milling because it's harder to clean and a bit too "busy" to look at.

I really like the look of the classic Automag. Take everything away that isn't functional and let it rip. There are enough after-market and after-manufacturer customizers that I think I should be able to get a "clean" looking marker from the factory. It doesn't have to look fancy, just work well.

I really like the milling done to the new Eclipse cocker.

How about basing the design from that on to the body...that'd look sweet.

great designs everyone....

keep the sight rail because you can now use it with these bodies.

i would like to see:
-some sort of ripper milling
-geiger body

how about a lightning bolt down each side of the body? i think that would look godd.

keep small grooves out of the designs. they are hard to clean and just turn into a hassle. you can keep it somewhat simple and still have a beautiful design.

Not contributing much, but...

Please keep the sight rail on. Yes, I'm one of those obscure ones, who would love to be able to sight as I'm shooting; meaning, just using the clear opening without the vert/power feed blocking the way to aim as I'm shooting. Won't actually be using one of those sight options - red dot, etc.

I'm also with Cha0tic on this one. You can still have a beautiful design while keeping it simple. To be honest, I love the stock look of my Rt Pro. I like the look of a basic Mag. The only reason I'm looking towards a Modular body is to lower my profile - even if just a little - and be able to sight with my marker.

Wonder how much this is going to cost me... Modular body... A Warp most likely...

Either way, looking forward to your final designs!

Some good ideas. I'd stay away from the "Mill as much as possible" idea though, because then it would end up looking exactly like the tube the regular E-mag's are, except out of a softer metal.

In my opinion ripper milled markers are esthetically the most pleasing. I guarantee who ever produces a Ripper Mag will be sold out for a long time to come. To get ideas for any ripper styles try White Wolf Airsmithing, theres a link in the painballguru.com site under the review section. The actual web address is giving me trouble. Another ripper website is mtnpaintball.com. If any one plans on making a ripper body add me to the waiting list.

Manlike,

it looks like you did the first drawings in some cad program.

if you did can you send me the file. i use autocad and would love to play with it.

its hard to figure out where to cut if you dont have the dim's
