Of course many will recall Todd Bailey vigorously denying ANY association when Bobcat first began producing clones that were dubiously similar to SW5s and marketed as BW5s.

Now it seems the relationship (like all Todd Bailey relationships in the past) has come to an end. There is no word if Todd plans on suing Bobcat for anything and the statement shows remarkable contstraint with respect to Bobcat.

This announcement, not surpsingly, comes about the same time as a Vector announcement that it will be producing 9mm HK clones. It is well known Vector has been using Special Weapons parts (and in the past has had guns built at SW for them).

One can only hope that Vector might produce a "better build" than has been seen with past clones.

Damn! Dealer price on those is $825!?

I'd be willing to try one out at that price! Too bad I'm not a dealer......

I'd dig an MP5 clone for under a grand.  If someone could make a GOOD copy of one...

Maybe we'll see the day?

I wonder how Todd feels, knowing that as a result of his past actions, a large number of people automatically assume that everything coming out of his mouth is a baldfaced lie?

I suppose the warranty will be going like hotcakes too since they won't be producing them anymore. It would be a good deal if the quality was known before hand.

Yeah the very first sentence has a misspelled word ("there" should be "their").

Did that seriously come from an actual company who wants to be taken seriously?

SteyrAUG,

Would you be willing to give a guestimate of what we could expect to see from Vector on this product.  I won't hold you to any guesses.  I am dying to get a 9MM rifle right now and wonder if you think this might be something worth waiting for?  Quality?  Realiability? Price? etc.

(I got all excited today seeing the pictures of the RRA 9MM Pistols - just $200 more and it could be a sweet SBR)

Thanks in advance,

I already have plans to review them when they come out. I could use some abuseable host guns.

As they just announced them I expect they might actually have them to market in the next 10 months or so.

Whats interesting is that Toad uses there END of something all the time to sell stuff.  He had no receivers then all of a sudden he found 300 to sell, first come first serve. He had no kits and by some miracle he finds 200 more in a warehouse.

Its a sales ploy pure and simple.
