??? Have I missed a request by Country? (Serious Question)
Anything I can do to make a group buy of quality bolts happen with Maxim Firearms I'll gladly do. And I do hope it happens. I'd love to see this happen. I do think AA would be hard pressed to do this for us.
Maybe Maxim Firearms could do a prototype and send it to AA for Bill to do a Quality Inspection.
My hope is that Bill gets with Maxim Firearms and brings another Grendel Bolt Manufacturer online.
Buster also had a great idea:

It seems like a viable possibility to me.
Tedward make a great points, there's more to it than just machining a bolt, with lawyers, etc...
This doesn't need to happen tomorrow we have time, it'll need to happen at an accelerated pace, but not an impossible one. This barrel and bolt group buy just started 2 days ago, Aug 5th. It's picked up steam fast, but I don't intend to place the order as soon as we hit the 25 barrel mark.
As long as it's still holding steam I don't see a reason finalize the buy. That being said I don't intend to wait 12 months to place the order. haha
