| Any idea as to ETA on these? |

Those go out nearly as fast as they come in stock. We have upped our order quantities, but lead times are long, so it won't be a quick fix. There's another batch at coating currently, they should be ready to ship in late January. The best advice is to place the order so you'll be in line when they come in. Thanks, Jesse |

As far as I can tell, we should be able to fill the existing orders with the next batch. For pictures check them out on the site: https://doublestarusa.com/ace-essential-retro-coated-aluminum-car-buttstock-without-buffer-spring-a128 Jesse |

I do not foresee offering them with just anodize, I don't think they would look right. We do have some blems that will be listed on the J&T site shortly. There are some air bubbles in the coating that you can see the aluminum underneath. They're not terrible, but they can't go out as our first quality pieces. After NRA and Blade show we should get around to getting them listed, I'll post a link here when they go up. We're trying to decide now the best way to offer them, the stock body subassembly (stock body, latch, lock pin, spring, cap, & pin), or with a buffer tube, endplate, and correct lock nut. Thanks, Jesse |

That sounds awesome I’ll have to figure out the subscription feature. Like I said I’ve got one, don’t want to miss on another. If y’all are coming down for the blade show I’ll be sure to stop by. Bring a box of blem parts and I’ll buy em. I’ll have walkin round money. That’s a joke unless you would and then I’m not joking. |

I'll be down there, PM or email me with what you're looking for and I'll see what we've got and bring it down. jesseatstar15.com Jesse |

Hello. I was going to order one of your stock sets, but all of the vendors from my web search are sold out for now, with the exception of Bauer Precision. What's your ETA on your next batch? Thanks in advance. |

The next batch is at coating now. I'm hoping they'll be back and ready to assemble in early January. This time of year everything seems to come to a screeching halt right around Thanksgiving. We are working on increasing production on these for future runs. Thanks, Jesse |

I'll be getting the next batch back from the coaters this week, we'll get them QC'd and assembled so we can start filling back orders. We're currently about 2 shipments backordered, it will probably March at the earliest before any will be available on the website. We are working to increase production on these, it just takes time to get everything ramped up. Thanks for being patient! Thanks, Jesse |
I ordered one from JSE and it arrived yesterday. And let me tell you, it’s SWEET  As I said before, totally worth the wait. Thanks, Jesse. edited for spelling |

Glad you like it. We've been ramping up production on those, but we're still lagging behind. I should have all the backorders filled with the batch we're assembling right now, and they should be back in stock on our site shortly. Thank you for everyone for your patience while we've been working through some production issues and streamlining our processes. Jesse |

We just received the castings in, those are in the clean-up operation, then they'll go to coating. They should be back from coating and get assembled by the end of the month. Thanks, Jesse Edited because I thought this was the Ace Gen 3 SOCOM thread, I apparently cannot read :) Sorry for my confusion! |

These will not be a "stocked" item, we'll do batches as demand supports. Thanks, Jesse Thanks for the update. |

ETA I actually ordered one from JSE today... for some reason I thought I was ordering from Doublestar.

I got an email from JSE this morning saying they are on backorder.  I can't understand how it allowed me to put it in the cart and pay for it if they didn't have it in stock. I've bought things from JSE before and any other time if an item is not in stock it won't allow you to put it in the cart much less pay for it.  Guess I'll just keep looking. |
