    maybe i missed it, but why stainless steel? that limits your finishing options to expensive PVD finishes or black oxide, which isn't the most durable of finishes.

    i know stainless casts well, but i think if you went with a softer chromoly, you could get about the same casting strength AND be able to parkerize it like all the other parts in a traditional lower parts kit. cheap and good- a combination that should never be ignored.

    probably too late, but that's my thinking.

    In regards to material choice and finishes...

    Material:
    Through hardened 410 stainless steel.


    Finish:
    Bead blasted stainless steel finish as "standard", with black and tan optional.


    The reasoning behind our choice of 410 is primarily the hardening process. The device will be through hardened, and the ability to air cool stainless steel has its advantages.

    ...when you add to that the fact that 410 is also very durable and corrosion resistant... it becomes an excellent choice for this application.

    For those who do not desire the bead blasted stainless steel finish, the device will also be offered with a durable baked on painted finish (over the stainless), for now, we plan on offering black and tan.

    M4C, please advise as to any other finish colors you would like

    Edited to add...

    BKB0000,

    The device will be machined and hardened from 410 stainless sheet, not cast or MIM...

    The Cat,

    I intentionally induced the malfunction by attempting to chamber a very...very... dented cartridge.

    Again, thank you for your consideration

    I see my brother beat me to posting an update.


    I'd like to apologize for this project taking so long, but my brother and I have had very strict requirements for the production version of this device, which has caused significant delay. But we'd rather wait to release a product we have full faith in than release a lesser product quickly.

    The materials choice has been made as a result of testing various materials and production processes.


    If you have questions feel free to ask. Thanks for your consideration.

    Wayland.

    An ambidextrous mag release version is planned... and is a high priority... but no ETA at the moment.

    I am a lefty shooter, and can say that the device, in it's current configuration, works very well for lefty shooters who do not prefer an ambidextrous mag release...

    Also... please note a number of free samples will be provided for selected shooters/ trainers...if you have credentials... and are interested in receiving a sample device please send me an IM stating said credentials. Please understand we cannot pass them out like candy, hence the need for creds.

    Thank you for your interest and input M4C. We at "A REV" look forward to both outfitting the members here and supporting this great forum

    Take care,

    James

    I wish I would have seen this earlier, I got a class this weekend. I want one, PM me with an address and a price. I will run the crap out of it, and give you my opinion on it in depth.
    Thanks,
    Brandon

    Since I'm just an average Joe without credentials and my next class isn't until October... when will these be for sale? I'm definitely liking the thought of this over a BAD-type lever...
