    New Warperior Rail Presale - TimmyJay (design) & XMT (milling)

    I received permission from the better half to front the money for the prototype.

    I am creating a list of items to start conversation. Feel free to add your thoughts.

    Do you have video?
    Hope this post works...sorry for the pathetic trigger work. It was hard enough for me to figure out how to video. This is using Procap paint I bought at Goodwill for $2.99. Many dimples and smelled like rotten fish. I forgot to turn the loader on, but die corn die!



    Can't do the hopper mod? You could still use your warpfeed muscle man.
    It is cheap to do, but takes time and patience. You really only need a couple fittings and epoxy from hardware store. I would love to see someone come out with a shell and inverted feedtube made for this mod. No feedtube on bottom and add some screw holes to customize attachment location.

    Rail to hold hopper? Prototype to come...
    I used part of PTP warp bracket (standard warp bracket works too) and the front of a KAPP Cradle (< $8). A few wraps of electrical tape and it holds it solid. I wanted to bring this out with the rail as a kit, but interest in one would set interest of the other.

    Minimum quantity too high?
    I willl be buying one of each setup so the number will come down. I just didn't want to be the first 2 and now the only 2 on the previous presale list.

    Priced too high? Body mod costs...
    See my post about the lowest price opportunity. XMT has a lot of time into it and deserves to be compansated for his great final product.

    Another body option you say?
    I didn't want to bring this up unless sales were slow... Well, the rail could be milled, leaving the feedneck portion unmilled. This opens up a completely new setup for warp right (still needs to be tested) & vertical ULE bodies (new pics posted). This would offset the feedneck for stock class. A custom feed tube mod could be attached to the rail securely.

    Would the AM/MM length be a better option?
    I decided on RT to offer more options. If AM/MM would sell better the change can be made.

    You could use a Warp, but why?

      This is a warp body. I put a standard feedneck on to allow the hose to slip in and out with ease.

        Please note since the body is turned angling downward:

        The bodies front should be milled with a new slant cut (as shown above) or cut off flat (beware of ULEing exposure).

        Also, the opening in the body must be recut for the sear.

        XMT's body mod covers the front cut and the new sear openings.

          Hopper mod is not included, but I am sure someone would ask for details. For more details on the hopper mod please see this link:








          Who said a KAPP cradle is worthless?

                That is cool! Do you have any videos of the setup running?

                      i know this is for the rail, but would you be able to do that nifty mod to a rotor?
                      i have about ten of them lying around here from my shops extras i pick up avery 6 mo or so, and since i havnt actually played ball in a while now, maybe somthing to consider getting done.

                      if so great, if not no biggy,

                      now on to the rail, is there a way to get this rail just in slug form? solid state? but with the desired warp side milled?
                      edit:
                      i know it says in the first post that there is a slug option, but will the slug option include the front be milled down on the sides like the prototype indicates?

                      lmk,
                      thankyou,

                        Unfornunately, I don't think the ROTOR would work. The hopper mod in general would be too expensive to offer my (& my buddies) services. I would rather see someone make a new plastic insert with the feedtube inverted. Anyone with plastic molding connections or connections to the company that makes the loaders?

                        I am sure XMT can leave the front milling off (SLUG). I will touch base with him to find out for sure.

                          Cool Idea Jimmy, wish I had a warp body for this but I can't afford to make that switch right now.

                            I hit up my friend to use his helmet cam. I will provide video as soon as I can.

                            Any volunteers to be "shot" on the other side of the camera?
