John.  Increase my interest from one to two hooked.  Thanks.

By the response it seems there is no intrest in the flat model, so I don't know if there is much point in having any made.  
  I have another meeting with the mfg. on Monday to iron out some more of the details. I will keep everyone posted when I have more info.

have ypu considered making a + extension like glock, kel-tec, mec-gar, etc? I would be interested in an extension that added a round or two to the magazine and im sure others would be interested as well....seems silly to waste space. :D

That is a great thought but the mag release is on the bottom as opposed to the other guns you mentioned. There is not enough real estate for a mag capacity extension, unless I am missing something.

Look at an extended single column magazine for a Walther P-38, Helwan Brigadier, Beretta 951, or the double column magazine on an HK VP70/Z. They all have the same heel mount. The trick is to create a "bump" or protrusion on the tube exterior so the latch will catch or indentation.

It may be something to look into after this is worked out, but my feeling is the amount design work and machining is going to drive the cost up, and would require a new mag spring.
