    I still dont have an anodizer that can do the work for an affordable price and I honestly can't afford to raise the price of the inventory I'm sitting on by anodizing everything. That said I've looked around the state (AZ) and the big guys all have bad reputations so if anyone can make a recommendation for a reliable vendor I'll look into it.

        Anodizers the scurge of small manufacturers.

            Any way this may fit on a Deflator?

                Looks like there is an inch of space for a foregrip. There may be a little issue with the very front asa screw, but it's basically doable.

                  Z-Do...

                  As like Seado, the watercraft manufacturer. Like Z:2 or Z-two as like a sequel to the original Z frame.

                  How this is starting out; all i can say is good luck to see these by this time next year...

                          My inspiration comes from watching T2: Trainspotting. The sequel.

                                I'm trying to free up a little time to start the CAD drawings so if there are any design considerations you would like me to look into you need to speak up now. I'm sure not everything will be doable because we have already set some of the parameters but it wont hurt to voice your thoughts. If it makes sense and works with the direction of the project we may be able to implement it. It's much easier to mention that stuff now instead of waiting and having to do major changes down the line.

                                One main complaint is the constraint on foregrips because of the Z-Grip's trigger guard. It was mentioned over on MCB and initially I stated nothing could be changed. Since then an idea came to me that I plan to look into, but no promises at this point. I have to get the CAD started to see if its a viable idea.

                                Another suggestion was the use of 1911 grips. That is something that isn't doable because we want this to be as light as possible and we also need space for the LPR. 45 grips are nice and readily available but they put too many constraints on the overall design.

                                For the trigger, my initial plans are to go with a blade trigger design with room for two trigger stops. This will be a brand new design, with new geometry based on this frame so it wont be compatible with the AGD Z.

                                I like Nobody's suggestion for 'Z2' simple and to the point. So I'm leaning towards Z2, MPZ2 or LcZ2.
