Cesiumsponge 0 Posted July 1, 2006 Report Share Posted July 1, 2006 Saiga 12,10rd magsHalo forearm Saiga 308 20rd mads . . . . snags= I caught the Halo forearm rail system this morning browsing the threads. How far away are they from production? $240-270 is pretty steep but they can honestly charge whatever the market will bear. I guess I shouldn't complain because some rail systems on ARs cost that much or more, and I shelled out for one of those. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Z1500 0 Posted July 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2006 Did anyone notice that the number "avaliable" was down to 45 last night and now it is back up to 113. Also the market price was listed at $65. What market price was that? Anyways, I hope they get here soon. AND I'M DOWN FOR 30!! Now we need the Last Shot Bolt Hold Open!! Where did all you guys go that was working on these? You know who you are. I would ask but people start crying when someone get curious as to what happened to the idea they brought up in the first place. We had held back a certain number of available mags for dealers and just shifted 100 of those over to retail available last night. And the "MSRP $65 you save 9%" is just something in the web software that I killed today. It looked really stupid when it said "MSRP $59 you save 0%" so we put it to $65. Clearly the MSRP is whatever we say it is, we're the M. No matter what...I still made the first 10+ round mag: Wow, that's interesting to say the lease. The question is, does it work right?

Molefortress 0 Posted July 1, 2006 Report Share Posted July 1, 2006 Hey I live like 10 min away from you guys! Would it be possible to order and have someone from the company call me when they are ready? This way I could save you some time, and me some money on the shipping. Also, do you think that the mags will be ready before the Mystery Mountain 3 Gun match? Thanks for all the great work. Chris Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DaGroaner 2 Posted July 2, 2006 Report Share Posted July 2, 2006 I pre-ordered 5 mags from you but I have three sets of Izhmash springs, guides and followers that need bodies and floorplates, is there anyway I can buy just those two parts from you? Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks. Damn! That sucks dude! sounds like an Andrei/Ruseller "special". And yet everyone is still on his nuts. If you can't get anything worked out. Maybe I'll buy your internals off you....keep it in mind. I buy just about anything Saiga. lemme know. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks. I'd just sell the parts you have and order whole mags. The AGP mag uses a different floorplate than the Russian mags.

dodgeturbointerceptor 1 Posted July 3, 2006 Report Share Posted July 3, 2006 Z1500 Any returns/refunds available if mag is sent back with obvious weak points/breaks in mag that causes stoppage after firing? Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe I'll buy your internals off you....keep it in mind. I buy just about anything Saiga. lemme know. Yup, I did end up with two complete mags and a refund for the third after an eleven month wait so the internals were basically interest on an eleven month delinquency. Thanks for the offer but I have a bunch of Russian eight rounders and I might as well have some spare parts, however I doubt they will ever fail. Maybe the followers can wear out? Got trade bait?

I guess I shouldn't complain because some rail systems on ARs cost that much or more, and I shelled out for one of those. I emailed them about 3 weeks ago and was told they had finishing issues with the anodizing process and it would be soon??? $250.00-$275.00 is a bit steep as you say, but thats about the going price for good rail systems for AR's.I like the stable platform for a light and vertical grip,plus it looks cool as hell on the Saiga.

Wakal 10 Posted July 6, 2006 Report Share Posted July 6, 2006 Well, I ordered ten a few weeks ago. No idea why, as I'm stuck over here in the Middle East until April 07. Ah, well. At least I have something to look forward to. Like making a 15/16 round "super duty" mag out of a 10 and a five...heh heh... Alex Quote Link to post Share on other sites

inparidel 4 Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 I am confused, as are others. Why would a new mag maker take orders for "500" mags??? Unless he needed that amount of money to start/complete the mfg process. If that's the case, as all possible logic dictates that it is, then, I'll wait for it to actually work because all of you "pre-construction" guys are involuntary investors in a project that you did not sign up to fund as an investor. IF this guy wants to cut me in for a % of the net profits, then I MIGHT want to invest. Otherwise, he is conning people into R&D development, or conning people into becoming involuntary investors under a false guise, with 0 interest, 0 profits, and a possibil;ity of complete failure. I'll wait, thank you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
acetomatoco 0 Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 Why would a new mag maker take orders for "500" mags??? Unless he needed that amount of money to start/complete the mfg process. This doesn't seem to be the case here. I don't know about anyone else but my charge card has not been billed and I placed the pre order 1 week ago. Get online and check your accounts. How can you say he is using our money to fund his manufacturing when the Charge accounts have not been billed? Besides, by using a charge card you can dispute the charges for many reasons as written on your charge statement. We all take a risk when we buy anything on the Internet,Is a company still in business? Will they ship the product? If we want something we place an order and wait for an outcome. We are all careful with our money and place faith in any company we buy from until proven different. Some people are not afraid of taking a risk and some will never take a risk,to each his own. All we can do is wait and see. An opportunity is never labeled,when you think you see one, take action. Ace Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cesiumsponge 0 Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 I simply got tired of waiting for two years and simply "broke down" when I saw someone was actually going through with the process of getting something up and running rather than vaporware promises or abandoned projects (which this can still succumb to). Not logical of me, but with a full time job, I figured I could risk a couple hundred dollars as a guinea pig and see what happens in a few weeks/months/whatever. I haven't been charged yet, and is on my low limit credit card I use for personal/small company Internet purchases "in case" and my financial risk is minimum. It might be different for other people but I think its a safer gamble than trying my hand at poker (because I am terrible and always loose). I am also throwing money at Tromix's muzzle brake which still hasn't been batch-run through the machine shop either (90 days out). However, assuming both are fruitful products, I'll probably forget about them and they'll show up one day as a pleasant surprise when I'm building up some other toy. If I was more patient, I would wait as well, but 2 years and I've hit my patience limit unfortunately. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Which is good cuz later you'll find the recipie for them lol. Got to love Seinfeld. Seriously, there ARE other reasons, you just haven't thought enough about it. And yea, my cc is not charged yet either. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
