You might want to keep them so you have minions to link your ammo lol. We are looking at starting a trade in program for $ off the cost with ammo and uppers in new condition. I am still get a list of ammo and uppers that we would take and how much credit you get towards your purchase because we want to give you full value for what you trade but we still need to cover our costs to operate.

I do not have a time frame as we have a couple other products in the works. I would say 12-18 months from not isn't unreasonable as long as we get the man power for R&D. Our tentative price point is in the 5k range so hopefully that helps you decide if you want to wait or not.

While we're making pie in the sky requests....

My dream belt fed would be a locking/rotating bolt 45 ACP (like the DI45).

1. No out of battery detonation risk.
2. Perfect to run suppressed
3. Nothing says "Freedom" like 230 grains of 45 ACP
4. Just add Fostech or a RDIAS or registered receiver for instant joy.

I would enjoy that pie lol the boss told me the original belt fed idea they had was for 45 but creating a link for the diameter but lack of length for a pistol caliber proved too much so they went 9mm especially with it being a NATO round. I won't say never but I know we are not interested in traveling down the road of needing another custom link made vs making belt feds using existing links.

Please relay the following message to your boss:

"Abandoning the plan for a belt fed 45 ACP is the sort of decision that causes newborn babies to wake up in the middle of the night screaming for no reason. If you can do it with 9mm, you can do it even better with 45."

I already know what they will say "Making a belt fed 45 isn't impossible it's just not profitable for the R&D" as for crying babies I can neither confirm nor deny that we have a potential solution in the works for said babies.

Just wanted to chime in and say how much I'm enjoying the upper I got from you guys.Very high quality and tons of fun. Enough that I'm considering a second.

....and apparently now anxiously anticipating a version in a rifle caliber....


Keep up the great work.






Please pass on that the back cover of your manual is most appreciated and confirms that I am spending my money with the right company.
