Martin,

Just a quick question. Do you have the bodies in stock to make an MD1.5 or would I need to send you an MD2 body.

Thanks in advance,
Alex

Are you stuck at home looking at those MD2/3/4s and wishing they were MD1s? .....pack them up and send them to me. I will modify them and send them back. I am stuck at home too, so turn around time will be 1-2 days.

What he means by this is pack them all up and send it to him. You might want half md1's and half md1.5's though

Anyone else want and MD1?
Here is a gratuitous picture of the "Malkoff Graveyard" in my shop....Hope none of the other Malkoff enthusiasts are too upset over this, just remember all these fallen bodies turned into MD1s or MD1.5s.

I want a couple MD1.5
I have two MD2 ordered from Malkoff, so when they arrive, I will let you know. Can you also bore them out a little bit? My 18500 cells don't quite fit in a standard MD2.

RSType,

To get an MD1 made, send me an MD2/3/4 body and include payment of $45 ($40 for the conversion and $5 for shipping). PM me for the address.

Such an amazing mod, and Martin has never raised prices since first offering this service in 2013! As soon as I snag an MD4 I'll send it in for a MD1 and 18650 extension for my MD2.

I can bore them out. It is best to send me the battery and body together and I will make sure it fits. ..... My lathe is delineated in inches and not in "little bit" increments. ;-) .... some machine shop humor there....I crack me up. HAHAHHAA

Over 7 years I have been doing this. Wow. I didn't realize it had been so long. I am still happy with the price and people are still happy with the product, so I still see no reason to change the price. I look forward to getting your MD4 and cutting it up.
