I couldn’t wait so I made my own Longbow EMEK! Still waiting for the release of the MG100!

I plan on doing a body similar (may add a top rail) to the FL-ETHA/EMEK version I have already.

3d view

...no reason why it has to be clamshell. It could be a sleeve. Just need to replicate the plug for blocking the top feed.

From Jack. Sleeve body style will work. Sweet.

One of many reasons why I like PE. Head engineer will answer questions from across the pond.

Just watch out for the FSR guide tab in your design that extends down from the body.

Thanks. Anything final will be done after a propper vetting, ideally once PE drops some sort of body file or I can purchase one and tear into it.

Good point! Forgot about that! So yes it will require a modification at the rear over the exiting sleeve body shells.

I figure it'd be similar to the ion style where you have a pretty consistent cutout on the bottom so everything slides in at a constant geometry. Hopefully not too complicated.

Other option would be a slimline clamshell design.

Did a little work trying to figure out the body blank. Super rough but wanted it to see how the plug could go. Used the Emek body file as the base. Guessed on all dims so have to dinalize everything when its released.
