      Shartley's Extreme--

      The body is a more conservative style, while it doesn't look like any other marker out there, the design is very close to the SFL in looks, I don't beleve this is a good thing. Shartley did a nice job on it, but I personally think AGD needs to go off in their own direction.

      BTW -- on the battery back I would center the logo, and get rid of those lines.

            Shartley's lightning design:

            I think that design looks pretty sweet, although I'm not much of a person that goes for pictures as such, I prefer lines and teardrops, lol. See what they look like when they are completely cut down as far as they can possibly go, and keep the back part near the valve like Shartley did with the first one, that just caught my attention.
            Why go to the light, when darkness has its warmth too....

              Do you guys want to see the valve or do you want to have it hidden by the metal which can be anodised?

              We are working on several designs at the moment. One of which is definitely 'extreme'!

                I perfer to see the valve, after all it is what makes a "mag" a "mag". Plus you lose a little more weight, and everything looks good with polished stainless, and black.

                    well after what you explained about the new Emag manlike I think the only thing you should change is the X maybe like an eye (kinda like the lidless fire eye of lord of the rings except an AGD original design) and maybe some milling where the ACE will be like wavy lines or something growing from it.

                          Seeing some of the valve, but not all, like you've been doing looks great and cuts weight. Stick with it, maybe toss a few more ideas up here.

                            i agree with manual_fzr. i want as much as possible gone but i want it to look just as good as the SFL i want it to be as light as possible but still have style. i also dont like graphics or pictures it just makes it look bad. i want to see the valve too.

                            also i dont want it to have that frame with the milled finger grooves and that recess under the sensor it looks really bad and i only use double trigger anyway. you should keep the regular style frame.

                              Show the valve. I agree with the reasons everybody else offered: a little more shaved weight, Looks good, brand recognition, ect. That grip out to be standard on every E-mag its just so darn nice. When I get my xtreme, I planned on having my own milling done, but I'll use that grip for sure. As far as the milling, less is more. I dont mean take off less material, I'm all for light, but simplicity is the way to go. I think milling should make the gun feel and appear lighter and to look more streamlined. Like an F1 car. If you follow F1,you may have noticed that when they changed the front wing rules, a few teams had some awful looking ideas (Jordan $ Benneton) oops I got off subject. Any streamlined is the way I would go.

                              Oh yeah, Shartley, you should have entered those ideas in the fantasy contest, they're real nice.

                                Hehehe You said you wanted to see the valve... How about I do that and take off 5oz of the original 11.5Oz it started as... How light!

                                First one just came of the mill. First matching battery pack is under way...

                                I like that lightening one also and is actually a very similiar idea to the one that just came off the mill.

                                I wish modelling in 3D and milling was as quick and easy as photoshop :) but sometimes It's just a little harder working in the 'real' world.
