      I just want to go on record that I support Jam's idea. Jam, those designs are damn awesome. I think simple is the way to go. Keep it closer to an Emag design rather than a redesign, and it will be more likely to become reality. Tom probably wouldn't want to go back to the drawing boards yet again. Man, those designs, all of them, are freakin awesome!

        If there is enough demand some company should just mill a slug and rail to a similar design. Someone bring this thread to the attention of Xtreeme Depot or Deadly Wind. The fact is that a marker very much like people are now drooling over can already be made. Tom made it possible so that he doesn't have to come out with a new milled model every year.

        The only things I would like to see are total ULE E-Mags available. Oh, and Warp Breeched Slugs.

          JAM should be on the AGD design staff payroll. I was thinking the exact same thing when I read toms x-mag thread. I think JAM's removable breech design blows away the xmag milling. The thousand dollar emag revamp idea is a winner.

            It's not like you have to re-tool when you change a design. Just plot it out in autocad and let the machine take over.

                good lord!! That looks better than the current X-mag!! (I know you were not trying to reinvent it and all) But it still came out better. Great work Jam! [/B]
                I concur. That's one sexy beast.

                  While this one is very nice, I think it's a bit too similar/derivative of the X-Mag. As such, from a cosmetic standpoint, it may take some sales away from the X-Mag.



                  Personally, I'd prefer something quite different than what's out there. Make the models more distinct from one another. Sam's (shartley) slug design from way back when is still one of my favorites. :)

                  Maybe Sam can modify it and slap the body on an E-Mag gripframe? :)



                  Of course, there's another consideration...how much cost/time these things would take to make.

                    Who cares? Like anyone can get an Xmag?

                        Not complaining here, just stating the obvious as we as humans are inclined to do,("my, you're tall." "nice weather, isn't it?", or "you seem to have fallen down a 30' well, you ok?")so put the flamethrowers and napalm down!

                          This body is my choice also:

                          That is so sweet. If it could be produced in higher quantities than the x-mag I would be interested. I like the removeable breech. I like the idea of being able to play with a hopper or my warp.

                            I think make the breech not removable to save on cost, but have warp body available as an option. Just my thought...
                            Keeping the price under $1000 would be key if ya ask me. Having a removable breach means more milling needed. More milling needed equals more man hours. More man hours equals more money needed by manufacturer to pay. That means a higher pricetag for us.

                              How about starting with a simple one piece body like below and add some additional cosmetic milling . Any ideas ?

                              also I'm looking at the option of doing this through the local machine shop , maybe a single piece sluggo .

                                Pretty cool, I like the idea of no seperate rail, like PTP did with the micro.
                                I like a good mill job, but what does it really do? Abso lutly nothing(except chrome, that adds 3 BPS! ) but that is what the people buying the marker wants. And a cool anno job!
