What would be really cool is a BDL style bottom metal.

The one thing that hurts the BDL floor plate idea is the short distance from the front of the mag box to the front receiver screw. Not much room for the hinge. Could be hinged at the rear where the plate would fall down backwards.I simple sliding release button at the front to drop it. Still need a mag box with cartridge feed lips. A from scratch bottom metal would cost far more than the gun. I thought about it a lot too.

If I was to build such an animal, the times I would use the mag would be

somewhere between seldom and never.

I walked around for years groundhog hunting and never put a cartridge

in the rifle until I had a target.

I would probably load the mag, deer or coyote hunting . Kenny
