Bad news is you don't have one. We ran into a snag so this is the only complete one we've made until we remedy it. Unfortunately this snag means yet another delay on the project. I'm not going to comment on an expected release date, I just wanted to post this so everyone knows we're almost done. Pre-orders will be shipped in the order they are received and the first batch looks like it's going to be sold out before they are even done. www.agparms.com Kevin Edited June 29, 2006 by Z1500 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LOL I think I'll buy one extra and twist it into a dru..... a feeding device that sounds like something Neal Pert would play. You know starts with a DR and ends with a UM. Seriously, Nice pic, but it's going to make this next wait all that more difficult! Pretty good resolution on that pic for "vaporware" Ok, I'm a bit loopy from no sleep. I'll back away from the keyboard now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

IndyArms 10,186 Posted June 29, 2006 Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 I agree! It is good to keep us in the know.

I also appreciate the update.. and agree with 6500RPM... lets not fill it up with too much meaningless mumbo jumbo... we got enough posts like that nowadays... hahahahaha if ya want to spew "blah blah blah" start a thread in funny stuff.

I'm not going to comment on an expected release date, I just wanted to post this so everyone knows we're almost done. Very nice. However, if you don't mind me asking...have these been tested for functionality? This guy had a question that I was wondering too. Did you torture test a mag? Did you shoot any different types of shells? Will it take 3" shells? Is the outside clip the only metal in the magazine? I didn't see any. Do you have any markings on the magazine? How large? Where located? Thanks in Advance. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Z1500 0 Posted June 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 Function tests good so far but have not pounded loads of ammo thru it yet. Not sure about 3" rounds but the mag is the same internal length as a Russian one (2.7") so it should run all the same ammo. The mag has a piece of steel imbeded inside it going through the front hook and exdending down the front of the mag body. Markings on the drivers side of the body near the top, you can see it in the above pic. It's about 1/8" tall. Once we mold up a bunch we'll be throwing them off the roof, playing street hockey, etc with them to find any weak points. Kevin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cesiumsponge 0 Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 Woohoo, pictures! *sold* You now have three less available for others to purchase I've been waiting since the damned AWB sunset and I eventually lost interest in the S-12 due to a lack of filling in promises of big magazine vaporware. I'm glad I checked back when I did though to see a few S-12 products that I just must have...the magazines being #1 on my list. Could I inquire as to the nature of the snag? The magazine looks damn fine cosmetically and it's picked up a healthy evil black tan since I last saw the ghostly pale prototype! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MikeD 541 Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cesiumsponge 0 Posted July 1, 2006 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. Maybe a big order got cancelled or the material lot was overestimated and there was enough for more. It was down to 42 last night after I purchased three units. Can't wait for an update!

MikeD 541 Posted July 1, 2006 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. Maybe a big order got cancelled or the material lot was overestimated and there was enough for more. It was down to 42 last night after I purchased three units. Can't wait for an update! I dropped it down to 45 after I order 20 more. I had already ordered 10 a few days ago. It's not material or orders getting canceled. It's a sales tactic. Just like the "slashed $65 market price". What market? There is no 10rd market to say that. The listed quantity got to low and the seller didn't want people to think that they couldn't order the dealer special 100 amount. I'm not complanning. I don't care. I just want my 30 mags! I'm glad they are coming soon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
1liter 20 Posted July 1, 2006 Report Share Posted July 1, 2006 Now I'm really curious, do they fire 3 inch shells or not? My 12 functions so much better on 3's. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
