SOPMOD 254 Posted January 24, 2011 Report Share Posted January 24, 2011 (edited) Randall at Ultimak used my dimensions and R&D to develop the M13 Krinkov Rail and promised me free product for my help and an honorable mention for my work being the first person to adapt the Ultimak system to the Bulgarian Krinkovs. He has since blown me off so I will suggest an alternative to the Ultimak, in fact this is an improvement in several significant ways and it will be in the USA very soon. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TayjsDGQass Notice the venting between the gas tube and rail to reduce heat, side picatinny rails for mounting lights and lasers Here is a link to the development material I gave to Randall at Ultimak http://s224.photobucket.com/albums/dd164/AMNESTYC3/#!cpZZ4QQtppZZ16 Edited January 24, 2011 by SOPMOD 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
22_Shooter 1,560 Posted January 24, 2011 Report Share Posted January 24, 2011 Looks good, and it's always nice to have options. Do you know what the projected price of this unit is? (Sorry to hear you got dicked over on the Ultimak deal. That's pretty shitty.) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DrThunder88 912 Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 The TWS is a receiver mount, not a gas tube mount. Both have their uses, but there are significant differences. Is it just me or does the guy in the video appear to have a left-side charging handle? He uses the regular handle in the usual fashion, but the receiver cover looks like it's cut for a Lightning Bolt or some such. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jimdigriz 580 Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Pretty cool, and a definite improvement over the Ultimak, although the side rails are unfortunate in my view. Can they be removed, or are they completely integral to the unit? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
opto_isolator 3 Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 want more info!!!!!!!!!!!! I need another ultimak for my other saiga - if this is cheaper and better, I'll take it!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

HarvKY 72 Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Congrats on your efforts and upcoming success Will this be just a few to gauge interest and potential or a stocking qty type deal? If you cant or dont want to initially advertise publicly on forum(s) I'd appreciate a PM/email about possibly purchasing a unit. just let me know when time permits. Good luck with your (ad)venture Cheers Harv Quote Link to post Share on other sites
timy 1,185 Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 I don't like dealing with dishonest and/or unappreciative people so I definitely won't be buying an Ultimak. I do think the Texas dog leg would better fit my needs for mounting a scope on the 308 though. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It does retain zero well. JG Quote Link to post Share on other sites
