John Wayne will be along shortly to kick all your asses.

Forgive me if this has been asked but I do not have the time at the moment to read though all 27 pages.

For those of us who missed out on the first run group buy is there any idea when these will be available for sale on a regular basis?

And when these are up for sale, will the improved trigger guard and grip be seperate items when sold?  I'd like to know since I might buy a couple triggerguards, and don't want to have extras when I buy the grips.  If they will all come in one package, I'll wait.

What did I mis out On just found this Thread

triggerguards are out now. I dont see why you would not be able to but just the grip, if the triggerguards are aviable by them selves.

How does that make sense?
Because one part is done, they must all be done?

I think he means that the grips will probably be available as a seperate item, since they have already sold the triggerguards by themselves.  I can buy a Magpul triggerguard now, but will wait if they offer them with the grip.  I want the whole grip kit, but don't need extra parts.  

They are offering them with the grip.
What I don't think they've done yet, is broken down the myriad of ways that they will be offered for sale, when they are released.
Rich mentioned there'd be options when they went public, but has graciously included them all in the pre-sale kit.

IIRC

Magpul makes an aluminum triggerguard that is available now for $20.

The Magpul MIAD is a plastic modular grip system with a (plastic) modular front strap that has a (plastic) triggerguard built-in.  The MIAD is not available (as of Thanksgiving day) yet.

I think I got it right!?

Yes that's what i meant, sorry for the confusion, but i am use to just pointing and grunting for communication.

In case you're still wondering, and since I only saw sarcastic answers, here you go:

Woot originated as a hacker term for root (or administrative) access to a computer. However, with the term as coincides with the gamer term, "w00t".

"w00t" was originally an trunicated expression common among players of Dungeons and Dragons tabletop role-playing game for "Wow, loot!" Thus the term passed into the net-culture where it thrived in video game communities and lost its original meaning and is used simply as a term of excitement.

Dude.  Perhaps a nap is in order.

Modular is always nicer, and this is a great idea for a grip.

Great idea! Modular has always been a better way to go from my experience. good job!

You could have explained it in two sentences:

1.  W00t started as one meaning and it became trendy and is used for anything and everything.
2.  Being used so much, it loses it's meaning and the people repeating it without knowing it's meaning are pretty lame.

I can't stand seeing that word.

Where did you get all of that info?  from an ebonics website?

Okay, whatever, you're welcome.

Ever hear of Google?

Hey-  Maybe you have better luck on google than i do, because all i get as results are links to places that are nothing but places selling whatever it is i type in.  I can't get any info- only advertisements.  fucking google going public...

the reason i asked where is because i wanted to know where.  not HOW.  Google is HOW.  WHERE did all of that come from?  I'm asking, because I'm curious to see who the hell spent their time putting that up on a web page.

Any progress?

Quoted: COYOTE BROWN and OD also.

I have to say that this is absolutely required. I am guaranteed to buy one if there's a coyote brown version. I'm tired of putting up with my skinny-ass Ergo-Grip.

Yes, you asked.  He answered.  Instead of gratitude for someone finally answering your extremely off topic question with a real answer instead of a cryptic/samrt ass post, you gave him an ungrateful, smart ass remark in return.  So he returned your smart ass remark with another smart ass remark.  Are you surprised?  I'm not.  In fact, i fully expect you to respond to my extemely off topic smart ass reply with an extremely smart ass and off topic reply of your own.  

What is the point then to my smart ass off topic post?  To show that there are too many smart ass, off topic posts as there is.  Let's keep this thread on track, or at least get it back on track.  If anyone has anything to say that doesn't have to do with the magpul grip, then take it to IM or another thread.  Please, for the love of God, take it elsewhere!

You act like this thread used to be about a new grip or something.




Please people, lets not bicker over what w00t is.

Since I have neither time, nor desire to read through 27 pages of posts, I'll just say this.  A backstrap with an arch (like a 1911 arched mainspring housing) would appeal to me.

Check page 8 for pics of the grip

I have to say I'm not the first one to go "off-topic" if that's what you want to call it.  I'm not the one to post a mile long thread about it.  All I needed to hear was "hacker" or "phreak" or "wi3rd0"etc.  Thanks for jumping on me when i was just saying that was an awful lot of info to copy and paste if it all came from different locations and i was wondering why someone would have posted 45 definitions of the 'word'.  That's why I asked where he found it.  Not how.  I figured he was being a smartass and I wasn't going to worry about whether I sounded like a smartass.  knightone- you sure didn't worry about your tone when you posted about my comment.  I wasn't bitching because he gave me everything he could find.  

I thought we already talked about how to solve people's complaining that when they get notified of a new post, they complain that it's just a question asking how they can get in.  It seemed that people were going to just use this to start "conversations" while in what is pretty much a waiting room.  

smartass>dumbass but i am not saying anyone is either.  

Rich,

Can we get an update?  It has been a long time and I would like to know if we will recieve these before christmas or not.  Also what happened to the trigger guards being shipped out to us before the grips?

90% of the people here posted that they would rather he spend the time on finishing the grips than spending it packaging up the trigger guards.  i figured that he had a few employees that aren't working on the grips, but could be wrapping and shipping, but it doesn't matter to me.

Ditto, DevL.

Non-paying members can't tag threads.  It always makes me laugh when they put "Tagged" in a thread.  The whole point of doing that is so it shows up in one's active topics.  Otherwise, just subscribe to the thread, no need to say anything unless you're a post whore.

Anyway, this is getting off topic again.

off topic...

that's one reason i'm glad i paid for a team membership.  those email notificationes were, and still are, driving me nuts.
