Sold/Expired Group Buy Ideas

You look like an ass bro!

Not a fair assessment at all good sir. I believe I have been very contrite through this whole thing. My point is that I was in hurry, and the delay on receiving this lower has been an inconvenience (sp) FOR ME! I am speaking only for myself. The snow and ice will clear and we'll be able to pick them up. Never a bit of disrespect intended. Just being honest about MY opinion. Sorry if it offended anyone. This is my first and last group buy I can guarantee that. I ma sure Mr. Dubois and the rest of you won't mind hearing that either. Cheers.

Now in their defense... Red River was moving at the time, so they had to change their FFL info and get moved. I don't think the group buy was handled poorly so much as it was just bad timing. Frankly, I would have bveen willing to pay a small transfer fee to complete the interaction. JMHO.

Here is a quote from the other thread that justifies the length of the wait. Never intended to be an ass Jesse, just have my opinions about things. Cheers.

You don't have to be afraid to discuss your discontent here rather than elsewhere. The behind the back commenting on another forum is what I was referring to. It didn't appear healthy from my perspective. I wish I would have know there was a problem sooner. If group buys start pissing off members then we don't need to do them.

I am curious why you asked about the ammo group buy if this one was so terrible for you?

Let me start by saying MAGPUL is out - from what I hear they have 3 distributors and will only work with them - also they are VERY strict on the price.

I second that notion :unsure: :blink:

How about BlackHawk, Eo-Tac, or Woolrich clothing?

Come on, now. Some of us have more patience than money. The QD group buy is my first and I'm looking forward to it. Don't stop doing them. I have a feeling that GBs are gonna be a staple of my shooting habit as my budget remains the same but my involvement in this hobby is getting more expensive.

Believe me, I appreciate it.

 

[WideLoadTimmy]

As an aside, LPKs might be out of the question but what about triggers? I hear JP are the best?

 

[bsmith918]

The GB's are one of the best perks of this site. I would hate to think that a few members that don't know what to expect with a GB could cause them to go away. I sincerely hope these continue and hope those that need an item immediately will choose to go the retail route. I would also like to thank Brandon and JT for all of the work they have put into these great deals.

 

[WideLoadTimmy]

I second that. Thanks for doing this, guys.

To add a suggestion, how about AR mags and/or mag extensions?

 

[jtischauser]

What kind of AR mags would you want?

On the mag extensions are you talking pistol like Dawson Precision for Glocks or AR extensions like Nordic components?

 

[WideLoadTimmy]

Either. You said something once about Nordic extensions for AR mags making them 40+ rd capacity. Or the shotgun tube extensions. Whatever people find more appealing.

 

[WideLoadTimmy]

For the AR mags, I would have to see what people are interested in. I'd be willing to buy some pmags.

 

[bsdubois00]

Again - Magpul group buys are 100% out of the question. They only use 3 distributors and everyone that stocks MP stuff HAS to order from one of these - not much price markup either

 

[jtischauser]

Either. You said something once about Nordic extensions for AR mags making them 40+ rd capacity. Or the shotgun tube extensions. Whatever people find more appealing.

Nordic components makes a pmag extension that ads 18 rounds to a typical 30 round pmag. If their us enough interest I could easily add them to the Nordic 22 LR upper order.

How about the spikes battle trigger?

How about the spikes battle trigger?

How about a link? I've never even heard of it.

 

[steak]

You got it.

HERE

AND HERE

Its supposed to be a super slick single stage trigger that was coated by the Fail Safe folks with their Nickle boron finish.

What makes them special? The boron coating? They definately aren't a competition trigger at 5-6 lbs nor are they adjustable. They also aren't the cheapest trigger you can get which us usually a group buy staple. I'm afraid it will be tough to find a bunch of guys to want the same niche trigger. I may be wrong though???
