Been working on G-coding a pump kit. Need some opinions

This has been in the works for some time now. Finally got the material to make some. But realized i just didn't have the end mill to do it. So thats on order now. The g-code to run the mount is complete. Once I run one off i can work on the measurements for the pump rod position. Which making the g-code for that won't be that hard. The Kit would use ccm pump handles. So you would have color options on the handle.
I may have a trade in option for the rail. I have 3 extra rails sitting here. An out right for them my not be worth the extra cost to the kit.

Right now I'm working on getting a price quote for the spring. So i can work out a kit price.
Not sure how i'll work the pump handle details out. I'll work a price with them and with out. I'll only be offering the black handles. The with out option would be for those of you that would want a Color or clear handle. Which could be puchased thru ccm.

Need some opinions or ideas of what you would like to see.

Just shot off emails to Ccm and the spring company. I'll see what they have to say and will leave an update later.

I really hope this works out for you Claudio. Just beware of those who will try and rip off your design...

Curious are you modifying stock rails or milling a dedicted pump rail, i.e rail and pump guide combo out of one piece of stock?

I think it is smart to make it so you can use CCM pump handles, giving the customer more choices.

Milling stock rails. Cheaper in the long run of things

Hey more power to them. But since it's based of an exciting kit. i have no say in that. If they have the time to design they can do as they want. But i have my time in to this design and refuse to let it sit here collecting dust any longer. But if Ccm ask me or tells me to back off. I will. I sent them an email explaining my intension and asking for some help on the pump handles(purchasing them thru Ccm directly) Too basically give them there hand in the project.

On another note I have seen many versions of p mags over the years. Some horrible and some decent(only decent one was the true agd kit) But they all seem to lack a certain flare to them. This kit should give the pmag a new standing and a big revival. To pump players.

Definitely like to see this product. Ive not been too impressed with the pump options for Mags as of yet. Some CCM smoothness is in order!

Wow. This is really exciting. I'd like to see it get off the ground! Nice to see compatibility with CCM handles. Nice work.

Personally, I've yet to feel an unsmooth pump 'mag. Usually when they're sticky the front screw is in too tight.

Although I hope this endeavor gets off the ground, even if it means my P-Mag will be less unique.

Smooth the other kits are. But except for the agd kit they all had twist in the pump handle. that could of been elimanted. Cause face it that little pump rod can only take so much before it snaps.
