Black friday sale at Griffin Armament.

@Green0

Will the ECS ever be a stand alone product again?

I don’t know.  We had an issue with the company molding it for us.  I think we will try to get the panels and grips back into production, but stocks might be something we should slightly update and possibly also get to a new supplier.

We have them in stock but supporting our rifles is important and i have a very small engineering team, its just me and less often a talented mill programmer designing stuff, and I have some other projects in the way of getting into the stock stuff.

Production this year has been down, and thats put me into a bunch of projects that strategically put work in CNC machines. A lot of times those jobs are short jobs. Those projects require me to not just design but also program cnc code for the machines, so it is hard to break away for really involved projects like updating a plastic injection molded stock to make a totally new tool for producing it in a next generation version.

Damn fact the sale extends to the MK2 ambi lower is tempting me.

That totally makes sense.

Compared to setting up that $450,000 process, and work going back to 2013, that $154 to have a finished product is an incredible deal.

Couldn't pass it up. Bought 2 lowers and then bought a complete upper. I "needed" a 300 BO upper anyway.

Thanks for your business.

@Green0

Any idea when we will see shipping on BF orders? I bet you had a ton so just curious. Really looking forward to seeing the lowers in person.

Thanks!

We are in the middle of an Orchid integration for our bound book software (a switch from our former bound book software).  The Human time to ship one lower is 4 minutes. We are through about 600 or 800 lowers sold on Black Friday.  

Sorry about the time on it, I guess we are just seeing one of the limitations of speed of sale- the human time to run the FFL/EZ check and ensure we are shipping product legally to FFL's for which the address and license number match and are active.

No worries. Just looking forward to them is all.

Thanks for the response.

We should be through the backlog by the weekend.  We appreciate everyone's patience it is kind of a stupid problem, but every customer has a different FFL and none of those are setup in the system.

That include uppers as well?

It is a great problem to have as a business. Having too much to get out is always better than not enough.

I picked up my mk2 lower from my local FFL yesterday.  
Looks great and I'm now pondering what I want to build with it.  

I took advantage of the BF deal.
Real nice you hooked up with CA for the “deliver to home” option too.
Since I already had an account with them finishing up the order and ATF forms was real easy.
Thanks

Glad you finally got it.  Fulfillment was really a bear for the team.  We’re hoping to be finishing up integrating a new bound book software soon, and hopefully the fulfillment will be quicker in the future.



Thanks for doing business with us.  We’re happy about to your door.  Silencer sales has gotten too political, and that program will help improve the ability of customers to purchase products that might not be stocked anywhere else.

PSR 7 approved at 79 days. Just waiting for shipment through Capital Armory.

Thank you for the great deal
