    Im not really sure how much of a 'cycle rate' increase you would gain by decreasing the weight of the bolt... (even though under 1oz is very sweet sounding) and if this is a lvl7 application I dont know who would want this for their gun unless of course you had an emag of some sorts with a eye system in it.

    On the posative side, I am glad to see the someone is doing some R&D for mags. I cant wait to see what Rogue ends up with ~~

    I give Rogue 4 dancing banannas

                  The Foamie is NOT worthless by any means. The foamie is plays the very important role of keeping the ball from rolling back into the face of the bolt. That action keeps the ball stack straight up and down. This elimates chops.

                        Thanks everyone!

                        There appears to be lots of questions about the bolt. At this point, the only information I can give you is the weight, which is sub- 1 oz.

                        I would have kept this project quiet, but with all the "Nothing is being done for mags" posts recently, I thought it was appropriate.


                        To drop my $.02 on the foamie debate...

                        Ive heard both sides of the argument. Some have said that foamies are useless, and are a consumable meant to keep you buying them. While others have said that the foamie is essential.

                        The argument for the foamies being useless makes some sense. There are plenty of bolts on the market without foamies(cockers, cyborgs, timmies, ions, etc, etc) that dont have the chop issues that mags do.

                        It was always believed that mag bolts were hard on paint, which was the reason for the foamie. The Level 10 research found that the front edge of the bolt knicked the next ball in the stack and caused many of the marker chopping issues. The front edge of the bolt was rounded to solve this issue. This was stated by Tom himself.

                        Ive known plenty of mag users that lose their Level 10 foamie, never replace it, and their mags work just fine without it. Ive spoken with others who have chop without a foamie.

                        Which is better seems to be up to the user and what they have experienced.

                          why not make it both? have 2 screw in faces, one with a foamie for those who want it, and another hard faced one for those that dont. Probably one of those things that is harder in practice than words

                            Oh cmon, stop pussyfooting around. This baby is meant for increased efficiency!!! Jay started to do it, but retired and now you've picked up the project. Thank God, someone had to do it. We need an HE bolt for mags w/ eyes.

                            And the bs about eyes being unreliable... grow up. They do their job quite well. I never see anyone at the local field with eyes complaining. The "what are you gonna do if your eyes go down?" question is pointless. Eyes don't usually just go down.

                            I think this is one of the best things happening for mags right now. This + the Logic UEM frame = Uber mag. Think about it, the Logue mag:
