vbrtrmn 167 Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 You can usually pre-order if there are zero in stock at MD Arms; he just fills the orders as the products come in.. or at least that's what he did in the past. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
elvis christ 451 Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 I have no idea when they'll be back in stock, but I will speculate. I think it was about 4-6 months between the end of the first run and the shipping of the second run, and that was with all the craziness of replacement springs and gas plugs shipping or being replaced, and I think he switched molding companies sometime around then. That leads me to believe that it should probably be a couple of months before the next batch is ready. I'm sure they're getting the process streamlined with every run.

TO THE FLOOR IN A 63 121 Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Mine just shipped this morning...He has dealers returning their expensive stock so it may not be too long before he has a few in stock 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sapper1371usmc 107 Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 Got mine today. It has the clear cover. I now have it and a drum with the smoke cover. I think I like the clear the best. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bridis 319 Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 I ordered mine with the clear cover and a clear replacement cover for the one I have. CFTW. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shades_of_grey 1,092 Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 (edited) Mine just arrived today, (2 smoke). I'm glad that Mike has 3 different back covers available, to cater to just about any taste. I can see how the clear cover might have its benefits, but using smoke covers, I can easily see how many shells are left in the mag, while still having enough darkness in the back cover to more closely match the rest of the drum than clear would. To each his own, but I disagree with "CFTW". Imo, SFTW!!!! When my drums arrived, they wouldn't quite lock into the magwell, as expected. So, I watched Mike's excellent youtube fitting video and 5 minutes with a file got mine to lock in easily and solidly, (zero wobble as I tested fit regularly). I only needed a little of "fitting A", no "fitting B" necessary. These drums seem solid as a damn rock and I can't wait to go test em tomorrow morning Edited February 4, 2010 by post-apocalyptic Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobRez 1,895 Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 I was thinking I could also use my next one as some sort of giant Pez dispesor. Just need 12ga. Pez!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Slug-O 6 Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 I think MD is selling his drums too low if you ask me. I would pay 150.00 per but thats up to him...He has the best product on the market. Slug-O Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I only needed a little of "fitting A", no "fitting B" necessary. These drums seem solid as a damn rock and I can't wait to go test em tomorrow morning Mine required a lot of "fitting A" and "fitting B". Took about half an hour and removing quite a bit of material to get done. I did read the instructions very carefully and watched the video too. It was probably a bit harder than usual to fit, because of that thick coat of Duracoat on my receiver. The drum does lock into place and sits in there very snuggly now, so I'm happy.

Death_Delirium 7 Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 I received mine today, only took about 5 min. to fit it (only required fitting A). This thing seems like it is built pretty solid, I dont think Promag has a chance anymore. Now if this damn rain will let up for a day so I can go out and use it I would be a lot happier.
