Thank you.

asked this on the AR15 post as well, any chance of getting a type 1 even if i have to pay a bit more?

Thought i remember someone selling type 1 bolts on ebay or gunbroker.

He has already made this batch but he would need to change a few things and just doing one or 10 is a hastle as they might get mixed up in the other process. He said when he made the Type II Bolts he put identification rings rings, I think 5, to identify visually the Type II bolts so they don't get mixed up with the others. He usually is producing thousands of one type of bolt so the chances of him making a few Type I's is unlikely. I can ask though.

I'll get the price down thats just a range because hes got to start manufacturing the extractors. He's currently buying them and his supplier is asking 10 bucks a piece. So i'll keep talking to him and post up a refined price. As far as the spec what exactly do you want me to ask?

I would be interested in 3 bolts an 9 extractors.

Do we know what the price will be

[peligro113]

IIRC $65 not including shipping

[Dan]

when can we start to place orders?

He has them out for heat treat and once they are ready I'll post.

No need to put in request for orders or ask for updates, unless you want to, I'll post when info is available and orders will be taken when there available.

If you have a question about something else feel free to post but I can't tell you anything until I hear something. When I hear something I'll post.

Thanks Ted, standing by.

Bolts going out to Precision Arms for testing

[peligro113]

Awesome...that was quick

[dmsims21]

I am guessing we will be buying them from Precision Arms when they are ready?

[explorecaves]

Been a couple weeks since the last update.... any good news?

[Tedward]

Bolts have been heat treated and sent to be Coated then will be tested in the next week or so. I was told yesterday they measured perfectly and looked VERY GOOD, no issue is expected. All moving forward but they have other work than just the bolts but will be ready way before the barrels.

Patience....

Ted I think its been asked/answered before, but I don't want to wade through 22 pages again.

Are we looking at just bolts or complete BCGs? I think the answer before was either, but I just wanted to double check.

Thanks

[Dan]

They said complete BCG was possible.

Sounds good. Question I have when the bolts are finished and available for the group buy, are we suppose to order and pay you? Or how will that work? Forgive me if you've already answered that previously.

[aclark]

We were going to be able to order directly from MF if memory serves me correct.
