Reduced Price on SLUG Bodies in Store

[rikkter]

the whole idea to the slug bodies was to mill it with your own designs. like TK has already said, they wil be coming out with ones already milled, but from what i've seen people post about these, it seemed liek they were going to buy them and mill them their self.
now what i would want on them, is the detents already there and stuff. so all you had to do was get itmilled and annoed and throw it on and it works. no more extra stuff
but thats IMHO

note: i'm not disagreeing with anyone on here, yes i know you guys know the idea about them. yes i know they would sell better premilled and annoed.(just so people wont jump on my butt about it.)

I just put in an order for one, so this one won't go completely unsold.

Personally, it was hard for me to justify $150 impulse buy during the x-mas shopping season... but $100 puts it it square in the impulse buy zone.

Now, I know it takes cocker barrels. And it takes an Angel feedneck... but what type of detent is designed for it? Or can anytype be made to fit? What detent would somebody suggest to fit in there?

[cphilip]

bofh, there is just a location hole now. Its waiting for you, the user, to decide what detante you wish to use. Then it will need to be drilled on out to the proper size and tapped for what ever that detante you chose is. In the interm it may end up being milled over that area so I makes sense to wait on that final drilling and taping.

[bofh]

I kinda figured that you could put any kind in, but I was kinda hopping that it might be the right size to be tapped for a certain detent that the designer had in mind... if the designer didn't have a detent in mind, why the hole?

anyways, I'm not to familar with screw-in style detents... and I didn't have the presence of mind to whip my micrometer out when I last saw them. I even forgot to bring the micrometer with me
{edit} to meassure the size of the detent location hole...

it says only for emag and rtp, but dont emag and rtp bodies fit on 68's and mini's?

[Cannon-Fodder]

RT-Pro and E-mag only might be part of the problem

Sorry I would have, and still would buy one if there was a standard mag version of the body.

I have a feeling that there are others who are same boat.

[petefol]

well the stainless steel emag and rt pro bodies DO fit on classic and minimags. i'm just wondering if their is something different about this body, but i would think that it also will fit a classic or minimag.

BOFH, the x-mags come standard with angel detents. I am not familiar with detents at all, but these ones seem pretty nice. Also, I believe you can get them in different colors, so you can match your anno. Hope this helps!

after christmas i might get one...I'm getting a dremel kit for christmas :P

[cphilip]

...these will fit regular mags. Its the pennel that is a different shape but many put the RT P and EMag bodies on Regular mags. AGD does not stand behind that as there may be a few that may rock a bit but in the field it commonly done with little or no problems. Now the other way around requires some dremmel work to make the sort of squarish Pennel in a round one but its been done too. Only thing you cannot make work with little or no effort is the old style RT. Thats due the the size of the valve itself not anything to do with the Pennel hole in the rail where the body sits.

I think your main two choices are Angel or Cocker Detantes bofh.

I would probably buy a light-weight aluminum body for my 'Mag, but I will not sit in my garage with a chisel to make one of those slugs lighter.

[ChucktheMAGician]

I too would like one of these bodies milled and annodized, but I can't do it myself. Once again when someone starts selling them finised let me know!

Tom,

Sorry too hear there not selling. I totaly plan on buying at least one of them, but its right before christmas, and to spend 150$/100$US on a body for my self is selfish. Come the middle of january I will be definatly buying one, and hope fully I will have my cad and CnC coding finished so I can have it milled right way .

I hope that because tehre was no sales you will not discontinue this product. Its jsut a rough time of year for me personaly.

Sorry to hear that they are not selling I guesse that just how these things go sometimes. People say they want to customise there own bodies, but they don't sell because people are too lazy to get it done.

THEY ARE A GREAT IDEA AND AN AMAZING OPTION TO HAVE!!

Well at least the X-mags are selling
