Very Cool!

[Cristobal]

Yes, very cool indeed! One question: how do the bolt spring washer and retaining clip attach?

[Will Wood]

Sweet! I might have to get one!

[Dragoon]

Is the ball detent the only part of the body that needs machining in order to use? Is the sear slot pre cut?

I will be watching to see what folks do with them. I know I would not personally pay $150 for it in raw for....

[mag-hatter]

when will they be available for classics?

[Ov3rmind]

I'll be eagerly awaiting to see what some of you guys can turn out with these things.

I believe that RTPRO (not old RT) and Emag bodies should fit on a classic, but not vice-versa. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I agree with this statement. I thought by keeping the body a cylinder the cost to manufacture would be reduced. I hope with increased volumes the prices will drop.

rtpro and emag bodies will not fit on the classic body rail, so one must buy the new rail then the body will fit on.

yes they will. I sold my RT PRO body to a team mate who has a classic mag a long time ago and it works just fine. and about 4 weeks ago, i sold an e-mag body(exact same body) to another team mate with, again, a classic mag.

Now, while it's not a factory backed suggestion you COULD use an RT Pro or Emag body on an Automag/MiniMag. While you CAN'T use the Automag body on an RT Pro or Emag.

Meanwhile the Automag, MiniMag, Smartmag, MicroMag, ReTro valve, RT Pro, Emag valves are all "BASICALLY" interchangable.

Something doesn't smell right.

The slug body was promoted as interchangeable between all mags except the old-RT. That's supposed to be the reason it uses your current rail. The only difference between classic and RT-Pro/Emag would seem to be the thickness of the body rail and height of the grip frame.

Sorry AGD, but you stated that the reason you weren't making a square block body that would replace body and rail was because of sear placement issues/differences and the desire to make ONE slug body only.

i think this price is just a tad too high... $150 for a tube of the most common element in the earth's crust that is easier to mill(not that much was done.) It also doesn't include a feed tube. The PTP micromag bodies retail for this same price, buy include a feedtube and have numerous different colors and ARE milled.

Just curius , but how many people have bought these?
