My thoughts exactly. Expect it in the near future.
I decided way back in the beginning when I designed the
ASP that a custom single point receiver end plate would be a plus. Standard plates use 1.25" sling slots and since the ASP uses 1" webbing, its the equivalent of a person with a size 10 foot wearing a size 12 shoe.
Its a 100% functional combination. However, improvements could (and have) been made with regard to fit, profile, and usability. Since I reduced the slot width the plate now has a much slimmer profile and is hardly noticeable out beyond the receiver. Furthermore, the slot height was reduced to 1" and lowered along the y axis. This solves the problem of the loop blocking the forward assist for lefties (like me).
Though I hadn't planned to announce this until the first prototype was in hand, today is my birthday and I felt compelled to say something in light of Stick's post.
