    X-Treme look is kinda ugly

    I kinda don't like how the body stops behind the foregrip, makes the gun look odd. Is there a technical reason for doing so or is it designed that way for looks?

    It does look kinda weird there... never noticed that... I'll modify my fantasy emag to not have that...

      its probably so you don't have unnecesary weight and the barrel doesn't stick out as far

          yes thats correct but that takes off a fraction of an ounce. I guess it isn't all that bad looking, just not used to it.

                yeah magman...the micros do look even wierder. It does look good in a way but at the same time it looks odd, being as it is the first to really have that look to it. Guess I'm so used to seeing the other styles, it does grow on me though. I can't wait to get one.

                  no need for "locking channels"

                  Besides the benefit of reduced weight, the extra length is not necessary because it takes threaded cocker barrels. It doesn't need the extra area on standard mags to mesh with the barrel groove. (how about my highly technical terms lol!)

                    If you made the body any longer, the ball would load in to the body of a breach - not the barrel - wich would probably leadt to paint breaking as not every barrel will line up perfect with the body of the gun.

                        dont think of me as being a pain in the butt about this. You could bore out the body, if it was longer, and then thread for the barrel a bit recessed, as done with the minimag. Or cut it at a 45 degree angle like the minimag barrel. Just suggestions.
