I'm definitely still working on it, just not at the top of my list for now.  The visit I mentioned in my last post is now off for now. Over the weekend I got bad sick and had to use my free days to get completely over it and my time started over on the getting a free day with no absences. So three months from today I'll have another to use.

Well I've been waiting on a reply for a 3D printer rep that is printing me some sample parts of the pieces for this, but haven't heard anything from him yet.

I pre-ordered a couple of M3 mags tonight at regular price, should be in in a few weeks, then I'll start looking at any changes needed from Gen 2 to Gen 3 mags.

Other than that, nothing new. Been working on other people projects and was recently out of town two a couple weeks for training.

Those pics look good.

One comment, you might want to consider some "lips" that project downward at the front and rear, just like the magpul followers, to avoid tilting.

I have. The follower is the only part I haven't started drawing in CAD, only on paper. I'll get started on that in a week or so.

Small update is that the followers are finished being drawn up and just now needing to be printed for testing.

So..... Kickstarter is gay. I emailed them asking about a particular wording in one of their policies saying no firearms or firearms accessories and noted the project linked on page 2 of the other thread which is the Micro dot cover. And well apparently I can't put my project up there because from the time that was put on there and me emailing them, the policy was changed to omit firearm stuff. So that basically kicked me in the butt and threw out the idea of raising the funds to get this project into production.

So for now, back to the drawing board to figure out ways of getting these parts made without the cost being high. I can outsource the parts and get them 3d printed, but the body filler alone would cost $27 no matter the quantity. And that to me is unacceptable.

No updates. The project has been put on hold for now. In the process of setting up a new place and been having some computer problems.
