    To be honest, the main reason for having them made of Steel was because of the 'special offer' . Called them back up, using aluminum we can maintain the Estimated Price of 70 USD, that could change (lower, I promise) over the course of this. I've done a bit of restyling to the trigger guard to resemble the Intelliframes inward curve. Looks much better now, I'll try to get the pics to a decent web host.

      It would probably be easier if you just uploaded the pics into the thread instead of linking them. That way everyone wouldn't get the bandwith exceeded" message.

      If I were you I'd forget about the stainless. People want it lightweight and for it to be able to be anodized. Any deal you get on the stainless you'll end up eating when they dont sell. There are a lot of frame options out there as it is. You have to be competitive. Just a suggestion.

              Thanks, I've sent the newer pics over.

              Rogue, I have a question for you (Or CoolHand, or anyone else). Is your frame one piece or is it two? I ask this because when making room for the sear, the only way we can do it is to make the trigger a two piece, each side with reduced sides, so when they come together its one frame, hollowish core. May make the grip even cheaper if its just one piece but I think that would require more then 2 Axis milling.

                Will this have intellifeed capabilities? Will you anno be available? If so what will the extra cost be for that?

                  For now, I don't think we will include any Intellifeed options. There may be room for the parts, to be honest I'm feeling under the weather so I'd rather not do the measurements to see if the battery and roller would fit.

                  Paintjobs will be done with automotive grade lacquer and baking process, buyers choice of finish. Solid colors until we learn to manipulate the spray guns a bit better . I would estimate an increase of 10. Black will be done if the buyer doesnt specify a color, and it will not cost any more.

                      I dont really like it that much, looks relly wierd and im not diggin the built in snatch grip at all. I guess for 50 bucks or w/e it may be worth it to someone.

                        Just FYI, the intellifeed option does NOT include a battery in the grip, it's merely a roller switch and wires that run ot from the bottom. Definately a plus for ANY frame. IMO you would be smart to design it into this frame while you are still in the prelim phase. LMK if you have any?

                          Will do, CM.

                          Guys I apreciate the comments but you may want to reserve judgement until you see the newer version; looks much better in my opinion.

                                The way the grip slopes down is kinda odd looking but it has some potential. Like CM said, Intellifeed mounts is a real plus on frames.

                                Also, Al relly is the way to go. It's lighter and you can anno it. Steel you have o ge powdercoated, which imo, looks nowhere's near as good as annodizing.
