    New Slug body designs from Deadlywind

    An associate of mine and I have been putting together some body designs for the slug. He and I are doing all the designing and I will be doing the machining (CNC 4axis). Here is a shot of one of the concepts.

    We plan on making limited runs of each type, so they will be unique and retain their value. We will also be working up designs for the newer style Slugs once thay are available.

    comments/feedback is welcome.

          I should be having some pics of a run on a 1.5" round bar stock aluminum soon. (dont have enough Slug bodys to do test runs on).

          price: nothing set yet.. but expecting it to be in the $200 neighborhood for raw, slightly more for single color.

            For the $200 they will be coming with a feed tube and detent?

            Im guessing its angel feed tubes and cocker detents?

              sweet design, one thing though. Have the front tapered more.
              Attatched is a pic showing what I mean.

                not sure yet on what all will be included. most likely will leave that up to the buyer..
                they will be threaded for cocker barrels, angel feed necks, and most likely angel ball detents.

                  is there a way to mill the sluggo a certain way so it would fit a classic?

                    It does fit a classic.
                    Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.

                        That's a really nice design. The drop off right after the feed should be a bit rouder. (actually, I'm not sure about that, it looks like a sharp angle but it might not be)

                        .

                          I like it...

                          BUT, are you sure you have enough "meat" at the valve end? IMO, it looks to be a little thin in your picture.

                            I agree with Cryer, taper the front some more if you can.
