Its cool, local has one but doesnot run too well with .22 but fun with 223 ect although we did get problems when shooting suppressed with the reduced recoil

I have talked to a friend of mine with the ATF and this stock is legal. The stock actually comes with a letter from the ATF stating that is legal to own and doesn't require a tax stamp.

I've looked at them online. Haven't got to handle one yet. I'm interested! From my understanding, there is a ATF letter that comes with the stock saying it is legal. But what gets me, it says the product only simulates full auto fire?

$349

Ouch.

Looks like someone is trying to make money before it gets banned.

Never understood why someone would want to sell less of a product at a higher price, (say 10 at $349= $3490) as opposed to more product at a lower price (say 50 at $100= $5000).

Volume builds gross. Have they stopped teaching Economics 101 in college?

How it was explained to me is that since your finger is still actually pulling the trigger every time it isn't considered full auto and this is where the simulates full auto comes from. I have held one of the stocks and they aren't the best looking, but would be fun to play with. I plan on getting one in the next week or so.

Cool but don't need the art to change their mind and come to my house to get it.

I bought one last week. Major fun. A little hinky until you get used to the firing technique. If you want to try one before you buy send me a PM.

My Ar's shoot fast enough for me although that looks like a bunch of fun. Like to see a target with the number of rounds fired and contact with a target.

That looks like it would be a whole lot of fun but I aint paying that price for one. It's already expensive enough turning money into noise.

If you were to pair that thing up with a recoil eliminator it would be pure hell on coyotes.

Vans had a ton of these in stock today. Opened one up and sure enough, had the letter on top. They ha one mounted to a AR on the counter. The guy behind the counter said they'd shot it. I asked if it was worth the $370 they were asking for it, his face lit up and he said oh yeah...guess it beats however many thousands of dollars for a FA gun.

Yes $370, because this is coming from the same folks who charge $30 for C-products mags which go for $8-10 online. Guess that big shop has to be paid for somehow.

They told me that they (vans) would be the only dealer in the state who could sell them. Don't know how much truth there is to that. If I were a manufacturer I'd want as many dealers as possible to carry my product. Dont guess it matters though. I'm sure that $370 price tag would be easy to beat.

That's my hangup exactly! You can't tell me with all the engineering that went into that, they couldn't make it more attractive

Got to shoot one last weekend in oklahoma. It works pretty good. But after only a short while you figure out that full auto is pretty pointless. Id rather aim and hit something.
We talked to the guys and might try to get some from them to sell. To be a dealer you have to sign a contract saying that you will not sell them for no less than 350. And the profit margin almost makes it not worth the time to go thru the trouble to sell them.

The local shop in McComb, Southern Cash & Pawn, said they were trying to get them but the company wouldn't get back to them about becoming an "authorized dealer", and the company was being very uncooperative. Seems they are being very selective about whom they "allow" to become a dealer.
