    I took it to Southeastern Annodizing in Clanton, AL. 30 minutes south of Birmingham. It cost me $35. Took it in on Wednesday had it back on Friday morning. Maybe could have found a cheaper deal but couldn't have found better service.

      Nice

      How is the feed tube connected? Does that only takes Cocker barrels?

I had to use a mill to mill the body down around the new mounting hole and threaded it.I milled out the rail to accomodate the side feed.The ball detent is in the same place as on the original sluggo, however with the body turned it is now underneath.
        Wow, I don't know what all that means but it's way cool!

          sweet looking rig

          Very impressive. I guess that gives those looking for warp-feed sluggo bodies and option to explore. Thanks for the pics.

                  You obviously have the skills to make a nicy body out of that sluggo... why leave the sluggo a basic cyllendar? C&C it up man!

                    i don't think he would be able to carve it up since he rotated it...

                      I think he had to make it round since he turned it side ways. because the bottom of the sluggo is round to fit the rail. Am i right?

                      Props to echo419 for the sig

                        You're right.

                        What was once the bottom is now the side. Didn't have enough metal to do anything with. Maybe next time.

                        Ball detent is in(side). Body done, for now. Time to play!!

                          Ed,

                          It's a standard sluggo body threaded for an Angel ball feed and cocker barrels.

                                Here's a link to the barrels maker, http://www.sitemfg.com/store/moreinfo.cfm?Product_ID=33 Hopefully toysallround can tell us of a store which perhaps has a lower price?!
