Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Details wanted on Ruger American magazine lengths

Well I don't have any of that stuff, but I'm only 90mins from you. If you need a hand with anything in the shop I'm happy to come over and help

too cool!

Any update on the magazines?

Update: I have worked the last two weekends welding up the structure for the injection molding machine. The frame is complete, I am wiring and plumbing it with air this week. I am still waiting for the heater element and injection nozzle to be delivered, hopefully this week. I also need to order the plastic pellets but that is not a long lead-time item.

I still need a valve to control the main air ram if someone has one!

The CAD file for the part is complete. I have given the go-ahead to the mold builder to make it, but that is not going as fast as I would like. I expect this to be three weeks unfortunately so everything will be dependent on when I receive the mold.

Nice work! When Ruger sees how many you sell, you will definitely get your money back on the mold cost.

Very cool! I want a couple! Get yourself protected with a patent NOW!!

I would be thrilled to see you make a fortune.

I don't even have an American yet (waiting on an All Weather), but put me down for 2 when they are ready!

Update on this project: I have the molding machine mostly complete, just waiting on a few more things to finish. The mold is in process, I hope to have it by the end of the month (it may be the first week in June). I should have parts ready by mid June!

I have a list going of all the people who have contacted me or posted an interest in getting some of these. I will contact everyone on this list first when the parts are ready. If you want to be on the list send me a note!

Cotis,

Did you ever get the air valve? I may be able to help. Let me know via PM and we can communicate specs needed.
