    How much would you PAY for a Milled Slug Body

    I am trying to figure out what a Expectable price for a completed slug body.

    I mean Milled, anoed and assembled.

    Please dont vote if your not serious.

    And please vote for what you think is a fair price, not what you would like to pay.

    EDIT** this would include the body, not just the milling.

    Seeing as you can get milled cocker bodies for $200-$250 I would think that is a reasonable price range. But I think it would also depend on the complexity of the milling. I have work rapid proto typing my American Flag sluggo. We'll see how it turns out. If it works, then I might just ahve to get me one of these bodies.

        I'd pay in the $200 to $300 range depending on the complexity of the milling. Other questions would be if it included an angel threaded feed tube that matched the milling, integrated sight rail, etc.

            is that so you have some sort of target for practice after your new body is complete?

              No, it's so you can relax after spending 40 hours trying to mill our body with the file:)

                i think for some good, nice, quality milling, 2-300 is very reasonable....not sure i would get one, but very reasonable

                  Totaly unique I would say 200-250

                  Some one elses design, with multiple knock offs of the same body (not unique at all) I would say 150-200 .

                  Personaly I would rather jsut buy my own body hnd have it milled with my design. Unless of cource your goingot offer custom one offs, then as I stated I would say that it was worth 250 range.

                  Also if I was gettinga unique design, I would expect to be given a word of honor that you wouldn't use my design for some one else.

                  Just my thoughts, Its like the ripper kits,they where nice and unique on day one, but once hundreds of people had them, they aren't as cool any more.

                        my thoughts out of your mouth - heheheh...

                        milling is just becomming too popular, and the demand is high enough to justify a lower cost, overall.

                          if your supplying the body, milling, annodizing, assembly, plus time

                          150 for the body
                          100-200 for annodizing
                          75-100 for milling

                          so 450 max

                          i think thats pretty fair
