All this money is weighing down my pocket. Need to lighten the load. Pete already took some of it when I acquired a 24". Now it's just sitting there with no bipod.

Ratworx and us have been busy prepping for Bullpup Shoot most this month and getting some other kickass products ready that we were working on before the bipod.

The plan is to start getting parts made for it in earnest once we are done with the shoot. No ETA yet, but it is top priority after the shoot!

Any updates?

No updates on an ETA, parts are being worked on.

Does this include the alluded to trigger mod of some kind, as well?

I could have sworn it was you mentioning someone (not nesc. Manticore) working on a trigger option for the AUG. I'd assumed it was probably Ratworx..
Am I completely mis-remembering? It may have been over on the bullpupforum..

There are two companies that might be working on a new trigger solution, but not sure of the status of either project and it wasn't us.

Not to say we couldn't make a nice trigger, but I just don't have time to mess with such a thing right now.

Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat, and I've no Manticore bipod for my AUG 24"....

Even the confetti from New Year celebrations has been cleaned up by now, but a quick check of my safe still shows no bipod

We passed the files off the Ratworx but I don't know the progress made on it- our part is done in the process and honestly I have been too busy to even think about it lately.

Ratworx has been pretty swamped getting ZRX suppressors out as fast as they can, and with good reason when you see the newest issue of Recoil magazine when it comes out this month.

Will it be for sale from them only or from you as well? I think there are a fair number of us with 24" bbls just waiting for these puppies, thus the eagerness...

Not sure yet if it will be Steyr, Ratworx, and/or Manticore, but will let you know as soon as I know!

Roses are red, violets are blue ... and so am I with no bipod on my AUG LMG style barrel

Ok, ok, so it's not Valentine's day YET, but I've never been accused of patience!

Are we taking bets on whether it takes more than 1 year?

No we are not. Some other things took priority over it for machine time.

It will be done when it is done, sorry it is taking so long.

Bump for reference in other 24" thread.

So what is the hold up - something like a bipod shouldn't be all that hard to knock out. It's the only reason I got the 24" barrel.

Reminder of what all the fuss is about...

FYI asking us (Manticore) when it will be done is pointless, as I have said again and again (and agsin) Ratworx is manufacturing it and Steyr is ordering it.

Manticore's part in this was done over a year ago, our contract is complete.

Ratworx and/or Steyr are who you need to talk to.

The sad truth is that the project is pretty solidly tied to your name - googling around suggests I'm not alone. I'll shut up and write the whole thing off (as others have noted they already did) but it left a bad taste in my mouth which won't go away any time soon.
