    the looks like what? the looks of the people who want to punch you in the face or the looks of the women who want to "temporarily" borrow your sluggo?

            wait, so it's solid?... I thought you were gonna make them out of AGD slugs, that would be much easier/quicker wouldn't it?

                That cut is just a test run still.
                The final product will use slug bodies.

                      I can just imagine the tech support calls...

                      "Tech Support, how can I help you?"

                      "Um, I can't fit my valve in my body..."

                      :)


                      BTW - the body looks good!

                        Wow that looks real nice. That's probably one of the nicest designs I've seen so far.

                          that's awesome. if these hit it big i might buy another cheap mag off ebay and slap an x valve, intelliframe, and one of your bodies on it. great work!

                            strongboy, wouldn't it be cheaper to just buy a body and a rail and then build it from there. Becuase your just gonna replace everything on that cheap mag you get off ebay anyway. So in the long run your speding 150-300 dollars that you shouldn't have spent in the first place.

                            just a thought.

                              Great looking design! Will you be able to continue the waves over the valve if the next set of sluggo's have the extra aluminum?

                                I agree with Rob_AGD (he didn't post this in the thread - but we had a conversation about it last week at the shop) Go with cocker dentents. The Angels look good - but they are crap. If you use cocker threads you can then install the rebuildable dentents - which also allow you to "custom tweak" the spring tension on the ball bearing.

                                The Angels (using Angel detents) are WAY KNOWN for chopping when using a HALO-B due to the weak dentents. Don't sacrifice on function for looks.

                                Otherwise, great work - I'm looking forward to the bodies.
