Brocock .22 Bantam Sniper Mags in 12, 15 and 18 shot count

I, like many here, don't like the Brocock OEM solution for a number of reasons including cost, ineffective cycling and limited shot count to name a few.

I work for robotics company and one of my friends is our main designer and mechanical engineer and he built me some mags that I've been using in my HR and XR for a long time now. They cycle beautifully and I get a lot more shots out of them, even compared to the CARM mags (of which I have several as well).

Anyway, we now have the ability, depending on your scope clearance, to offer 12 shot, 15 shot and 18 shot count clips.

Clearances required:
-------------------------------------
12 shot mag - 41 mm
15 shot mag - 46 mm
18 shot mag - 52 mm


These work well, cycle smoothly and perform as expected.
We'll be doing a batch in .22 caliber and were wondering how much interest there might be these and of what sizes? 
Costs per mag would be $25, $28, and $30 respectively.

If there's enough interest, we may offer in .177/.25 as well.

Please PM me with questions or to hold one for ya.
If this first round goes smoothly, we'll post them formally on the classifieds in the coming weeks.

Thanks for looking.

This looks promising. I’ll keep my eye out for the development of a .25 Bantam Sniper HR magazine. 
 
Thank you to all those who have expressed interest thus far



@Ezana4CE the .25 clips would be in the 2nd or 3rd run if we get enough interest. What is your riser height?

@L.Leon got them noted, thanks for your interest.

@darylm the clearance is 100% dependant on which rings you use. Basically however, on my XR, low rings give me the 12 count option, medium rings give me the 15 and the high obviously offers the 18- shot magazines

@NavyBlue if I can get hold a clip it can be replicated and printed in 4-5 days. For the cost of the new ones, probably well worth looking into
 
@tsmith: not sure, please PM me a pic or two and I'll know more

And I apologize I didn't answer your second question earlier...by clearance we are referring to the amount of space between the bottom on the breech (magazine loading area) and the bottom of your scope. I have tried to show this more clearly with a pic of my XR. Hope this helps.

UPDATE (4/8/2022):
==============================================


We have completed the first batch of 12 and 15 count Bantam Sniper magazines (original style). I absolutely love my 18-shot count mags and they've proven thus far to be very reliable. I will reach out to those who've expressed interest in them with details.

We have also completed the first prototype of the 15 shot new "FLIP" Bantam XR style magazine which we'll put into testing later next week!! If all goes well with that testing (sadly I don't own my own new Sniper XR so have a little time as we ship that one out for testing), we'll have them available the following week around Thursday or Friday. Will offer first come first serve to those on this thread who've responded via PMs. If any magazines are left following that, they'll be posted on the general classifieds.

Thanks again for all those who've responded and expressed interest.
