jsp 1 Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Mike, I just sent you an e-mail in regards to shipping to Guam. Could you add Guam as one of your shipping options on the drop down list of states on your website? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thehopping1 105 Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Let's get something straight! I am not even slightly "afraid" and you can trust that. And I just saw pics tonight and now I definately am not even a little worried, lol. And if they use the same material as the rest of their stuff, with the design I see... You can buy one of their and let us know what you think but you will be very sad you didn't get the MD-20 instead!!!! They have pics posted on their site. You guys tell me if you can see the same weaknesses (plural) I can, just from the pics!!! WOW, that thing looks like a pile of crap. The back plate looks like it snaps on using cheap looking tabs, and it has some kind of loading assist on it that will put pressure on that weak point. But hey, I'm sure it will hold a door open just as good as a wraithmaker. Am I close? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
csspecs 1,987 Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Well I can stop kicking myself for not being in on the first preorder. Now to start kicking myself for not buying 5-10 this time. I did order one, should be fun. Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
flyinlow78 0 Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 In for 2 more, thanks for a great deal Mike. No hard feelings here about the prices paid in the past. You have a business to run, I was there once too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Paulyski 2,227 Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 (edited) Am I the only one who wants to wait and see what this competition he is so afraid of holds? Let's get something straight! I am not even slightly "afraid" and you can trust that. And I just saw pics tonight and now I definately am not even a little worried, lol. And if they use the same material as the rest of their stuff, with the design I see... You can buy one of their and let us know what you think but you will be very sad you didn't get the MD-20 instead!!!! They have pics posted on their site. You guys tell me if you can see the same weaknesses (plural) I can, just from the pics!!! Lemme try! Lemme try! 1- Polycarb snap catches that are exposed & will likely catch on something & snap off, not to mention eventually snap off with repeated removal. (let alone in cold environments) 2- The cover is not recessed, thus, not reinforcing the overall strength of the drum. 3- the cover extends up into the feed tower, so the rear catch lacks reinforcement & may quickly snap off. 4- they started out by attempting to clone the first MD drum, before material was added to increase strength (& make it look cooler). 5- that reload assist will stress the already weak snap-catches. Mike should buy one, X-ray it like Distal did his, then subject it to the torture test that the "other" competition faced (& failed). The toyota of truth. I do hope some people buy it, just so we have someone to screw with & say "told ya so" to. Edited February 9, 2010 by Paulyski Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Matthew Hopkins 1,065 Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 (edited) I - Is this just a way to raise extra funds for a secret USA made Saiga12 weapon project in NE Ohio? Mike is in SW ohio. there hasn't been anything manufaturer up here (NE ohio) since Eisenhower was president. OK , I exagrate, not since Nixon.

yakdung 2,926 Posted February 10, 2010 Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 Does anyone have any preferences on drum cover styles? Thanks, Yakdung Quote Link to post Share on other sites
elvis christ 451 Posted February 10, 2010 Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 On the first pre-order, I got black, because I was skeptical of the durability with a clear cover. But last week I ordered a few, all they had were the clear cover, which actually seemed really sturdy, but they're kind of bright. I ordered some more today, and went with the smoke. I think it will be a good compromise. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sapper1371usmc 107 Posted February 10, 2010 Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 Didn't mike state that the covers were made from the ghe same material regardless of it being clear, smoke, or black? With that said I have both clear and black and I seem to prefer the clear. You can get a much faster round count using a quick glance with the clear than the smoke. And the clear looks much cooler Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ductapeman 1 Posted February 10, 2010 Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 Ordered one yesterday, from work-- then got too busy to post here. By the time they're ready I may be in a position to double the order, if Mike will let me. Thanks again, Mike! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My Tromix 12in sbs is still in jail.(waiting for my paper work to clear) will post a report once in hand. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bobakman 7 Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 The first one I bought is terribly lonely it needed a companion! Bob Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guer0 3 Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 I ordered 2 more. The pay 50% now and the rest in 6 or so weeks when they are ready is what sold me. It makes it that much more affordable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scoutjoe 276 Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 You'd be foolish not to jump in on this one. I know a guy who wasn't able to pony up for the original price tag, but when I told him $120 he was all over it. I'm in for two more Thanks Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
garzanium 5 Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 woot!! Just placed my pre-order tonight. Cant wait to own this beast. In advanced, thanks MD!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChileRelleno 7,071 Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 (edited) Just placed my order for another... My original was getting lonely Mike, bring on the double stacks! Edited February 13, 2010 by ChileRelleno Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TO THE FLOOR IN A 63 121 Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 my wifes guna be f***ing angry. Ordered one. +10 But I figure it is easier to get down and grovel and beg for forgiveness then it is to ask for permission...and 6 weeks from now I will only have to pay $50 plus shipping.

ErikTaylor 41 Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 Already ordered one... hopefully two within next week! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KrisFox 69 Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 (edited) Well I've had enough. I ordered my first drum, it cost me $260 plus shipping. I'm so pissed off I ordered 8 more drums at the $100 pricing. I figure since I have spent $1060 for 9 drums I'm averaging about $117.78 per drum, that way when Mike goes back to $120 per drum I come out ahead.

Crusader 64 Posted February 14, 2010 Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 I think it would be really cool to have a MD drum that shot magnum loads. I wouldn't mind owning both. One that shoots regular 2 3/4in and another one that shoots only 3in. Any thoughts? Could we talk Mike into marketing one? Mike; would you make one if the demand was right?

scattergunner 12 Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 WOOHOO! IM IN FOR 3 MORE!!! hey mike how long will preorder period last?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MadDog 3 Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 (edited) I have three 160.00 drums. If I had waited I could have 5 drums instead of three. Hey Mike, how about a total clear drum??? Edited February 18, 2010 by MadDog Quote Link to post Share on other sites
