[Last Edit: PalmettoStateArmory]
Palmetto State Armory is pleased to announce the merger of NoDak Spud LLC into the JJE family of companies!
Effective Jan 3rd, NoDak Spud will become a subsidiary of Harrington & Richardson. Mike Wetteland, co-owner of NoDak Spud will become the CEO of the newly reformed H&R. Mike brings over 30 years of experience in the firearms industry to our team. As many of you know, Mike’s attention to detail and passion for Retro AR15’s has helped grow our hobby. NoDak Spud will cease all operations at their Edina MN facility Dec 23rd in order to complete ship outs before the end of the year. NoDak Spud will then be relocated to West Columbia SC. All customers that had backorders and/or were on the interested parties list for retro lowers/parts will be notified by Harlan via telephone or email. All NoDak Spud retro parts will be rebranded as H&R. Most of the other NDS products, such as Ruger rifle sights will still be produced. Please be patient as it will take time to spin production back up. NoDak Spud will continue to field calls and emails until we get the H&R website and staff up and running. PLEASE DO NOT call Palmetto State Armory to place pre-orders or make product inquiries as the customer service staff has not been brought up to speed yet. Please be assured that we will do our best to contact everyone on the NoDak lists to give them the opportunity to purchase H&R retro products. Thank you, -Josiah |

Mike - Can you give us an idea of what the products will be released first? I think you had mentioned that receivers and barrels are money makers. I was specifically wondering about black A1 uppers.

We live in a world of lies, and that's the damn truth.

T48!??? Man if you could pull that off you would be a legend. I know tons of FAL diehards (including myself) that would give their left nut for a faithful reproduction. Even if you just made quality FAL parts for sale I guarantee you couldn’t get them out fast enough. OG parts have gotten crazy pricey and scarce, and DSA is so hit or miss.

I just read through 13 pages and am now certain there will be some H&R retro parts in my future. This is gonna be great.

I really like the look of the website. Good job.

@mike_nds
I think it'd be convenient and cool if you put the link to the H&R Website in your Arfcom signature. |

need to set up an email subscription so we know when the site gets updated with pricing, availability, or anything else
I think it would be a good way to gauge interest as well |

But just saying they are similar to X brand isnt cutting it. |
|
|
We haven’t machined any uppers, nor have we finished getting anodizing samples done.
Once multiple things are done I will have our full costs. Then we can start to post pricing. |

View Quote Yes, Anything more on this? Or perhaps another thread in the FAL/Armory section here or on the FAL Files? I know egos run immense in the aftermarket, repro, retro, surplus and collecting world but you'll probably want to get to know one cranky know-it-all SOB who does in fact know-it-all about FALs ( Mark Graham AKA Gunplumber of ARS , Arizona Response Systems). No filters on what comes out of his brain and mouth just calls it like he sees it. I believe he has high regard for the Nodak products But perhaps a bit skeptical of the PSA merger. Many complain of his personality but nobody nobody complains of his work and knowledge. https://www.falfiles.com/threads/nodak-spud-acquired-by-psa-interesting-mention.475736/ |

I have all of the parts together and ready to build my XM177E2 except an upper receiver. I eagerly await a stripped A1 upper and would gladly be your first customer. Baconator2528

C7 uppers please. Love the idea of a T48 and T-223. Keep up the great work.

If C7s could be available with M4 cuts, that would be even better

The family has other projects in process that need to be done first. |

What's the attraction with C7 uppers? Especially in the context of retros?
