Thanks, Dude. Correct, not enough demand for the five round to cover what it would cost for NRE.

Hey, Ben,
Thanks.
I haven't fed Eley yet but anyone experiencing feed issues with Eley has a rifle setup issue, not a magazine issue. I'll cover this in Video 3 of my video series.
I'll put a number of specifics together for heights in a post that should help with various comparisons.

If I had to guess, more than the equivalent capacity polymer Vudoo mag, but less than the L3i billet Stinger mag (way less)
Nice! And I see you know why I was asking…I remember everyone excited to get the Li3 mags then a lot of ppl did not like the weight.If I had to guess, more than the equivalent capacity polymer Vudoo mag, but less than the L3i billet Stinger mag (way less)
I have 3 of the Li3 mags and like them, yeah they are a little heavy but they are pretty nice.
The mag weight thing to me is crazy and was the hardest thing to understand lol. The original stinger at 16oz was loved by centerfire guys but too heavy for rimfire shooters, the current stinger mag is 13oz, the rimx is 12oz, the anschutz is light with weights to make it 16oz, bergara and vudoo are lighter now with weighted extensions to get them anywhere from 4oz to 16oz. I think every magazine manufacturer just figured out they should make what they make and people will either buy it or not lol
Are you willing to take back the OG 16oz magazines and swap for the G2 13oz versions to make your customers less dissatisfied? Or even offer a service to have the OG milled internally to match the G2 (for a reasonable small fee for the machining T&L)? I reached out via email and got no response at all…ghosted.
I don't think we'd be able to since the weight was known beforehand and the rework time would prob be more cost that making a new one. That being said there's still a huge demand for them since the world championship production class was just won with it. I don't think it would be hard to sell used on the hide and replace it.
My comment was more about MB new mag and how I recommend just making it the way he wants vs trying to capture a specific weight.
Hey, Dude, the data I have at the moment for weight of each capacity is based on a Mass Properties Study, which is generated by the software I use. I'll weigh the 10-round today, but according to the study, it's very slightly heavier than the RimX mag.
I'll be doing a post soon showing the various length dimensions, as various community members are considering barricade stops and other parts of their kit, to fold the new mags into their table-of-equipment.
