Default Shooter Shackles Prototype II

We took run2jeepn's suggestions and made some updates, check it out

A stopping Tab* is added. Lower Shackle can twist now. Bend in Upper Shackle is removed. Shackle is a little bit shorter now.

We will send the new prototype to run2jeepn for another round of testing (once we add the stop tab), lets hope this is ok to go and we can start shipping in Feb.

Mike sent me another small updated pic to let everyone know these are almost complete.
Stop tab just needs added

Click the image to open in full size.

These will rotate 360* as well.

The tabs may be finished within the next day or so

I never recieved the new ones to see. Just from what I can see. I would move that brace down closer to the joint so the Tab will be Smaller. Right now looks like the tab would have to be pretty big to hit it. And if thats the case it would take away from the scale look of it.

run2jeepn should get this final prototype next week. Once we get a go from him, we will start mass production of this product. Hopefull we can ship all backorder by end of the month.

Nice...Looks pretty good. My only concern is the lower half twisting freely and not binding.

let us know once you get it, how far you want it to twist.

One guy told us twisting freely wont cause any problem.
