Magpul,

I understand you've been busy, but I have sent 2 emails asking to change my shipping address and I have not received a response acknowledging the change of address. I have moved since the pre-order and I am trying to avoid a situation where I don't receive the grips. Please tell me the best way to make sure my items are shipped to my correct address.

Thanks

Hi Rich,

Based on the pics of the unit to date and the fact that we are GETTING MORE THAN WE PAID FOR(!!) please take all of the time you need to get things right.

Maybe I'm alone in this but when somebody offers me something over and above what I paid for I'm apt to be a little more patient in the long run.

I'm also guessing that the majority of the folks that pre-ordered aren't holding up a build waiting for the grip (re: already have something else in place but waiting for the MIAD).  My apologies to those that fall outside of this assumption.

Rich, take the time to make them reflect your company quality standards so that nobody bitches about "getting a POS" or whatever drivel the "glass is half empty" folks can come up with.

Based on all of the Magpul products and services I have received I have high confidence that all will we happy with the end result.

My $0.02.

I am. Like I already said though, I 'm all for our troops being taken care of first. Waiting a little longer is fine but I like to be kept up to speed. I think that is fair.

Rich
Priorities are where they should be - I don't mind waiting longer so troops can get what they need.

The grip is a bonus - and no one will die without one - the rangerplates and floorplates might make that difference.

Cheers

Hey- I purchased my townhouse in MARCH with an expected finish date of late JULY or early AUGUST.  It was pushed back several times.  I just moved in 3 weeks ago.  If I can wait for a HOME then I can wait for a GRIP (althought it's not just a grip).

Thanks Rich

I'm gonna create a thread on trading or the 'idea' of trading.  you don't have to commit, just as I'm not sure I'll be willing to let one go either.

For $66.95, this is what you missed:

1 Grip Body

4 Backstraps - Straight, Bevertail, Arched and Arched with Beavertail

4 Forward straps - A1, A2 (fingergroove), A1 with trigger guard, A2 with triggerguard.

4 Internal core units - AA battery, 123 battery, Bolt/fireing pin, Standard cap

PLUS 1 additional Grip Body in honor of the AWB sunset!

Do the counterstrike guys also speak ebonics or spanglish?  

I'm not trying to be racist, but when I ask you to translate this garbage phrase, don't insult anyone because they ask you to translate what came out of your slang mouth!!

Can you read this ELITE form of typing?

Do you know the answer to the riddle?

I do hope that for the sake of those that missed out, the 'man' doesn't gobble up all of the new MIADs for the troops overseas.  If they do, which they should, they'll be scarce!

Happy thanksgiving.

I guess your bi-polar

I'm with you though, we speak fairly normal here and just asking about a term should not place anyone in a position to be made fun of or belittled.  It's been a LONG time since I've used l33t speak. I can't remember half of it. Just like I can't remember any german, even after spending over 12 years there.

And back on topic...............................

I'm a firefighter doing a little contract work over here supporting a military base. I'll be home for three weeks for vacation over the christmas/new year holidays. I've been purchasing a bunch of stuff to put together while I'm home. The wife will make out well in toys for this christmas. A Glock and a new AR15 in yellow furniture for her. I'm doing two AR15's for me also, one in coyote and one SBR. I'll be here (except vacations) until Dec 2005.



My dad was one of the primary instructors in Graffenvier (sp) for both the Abrams and Bradleys when they first came out. We spent 8 years continious there. I learned both vehicles before I learned to drive a car. Assembling and timing a M2 .50 at the age of 12 framed my love of guns for life. At that age the barrel was HEAVY!

Sure:
85 0 74 10 18 1 3 169 5 490 10

Doesn't appear to be a riddle though, those values don't tranlate to character codes under any system and you can't redistribute the digits into 7 or 8 bit sequences evenly.  In fact the number of character (59) is prime so we couldn't evenly divide them into any length sequence of digits.  There isn't a pattern to the values in either decimal or binary.  Looks like you just randomly typed a bunch of ones and zeros. Now has anyone heard an updated ship date for the MIAD?

If you are a team member, cancel the subscription to the thread and you won't get updates.  It WILL still say in your "my active topics" list.

If you read through all 26 pages looking for info every time you come here, that's noone's problem but yours.  

Look at it this way- we are just sharing our feelings and opinions just like people sitting in an AA meeting.  We have thoughts of nothing but the MIAD all day long- same thing!

I used to have the 'there are 10 types..." quote at the bottom of my sig- i changed it during one of the tacpoint arguments to point out how stupid i was.

speaking of stupid, what do these 'tards mean when they say w00t??

It's not in the AR15.com abbreviations thread, so i'm assuming it came from somewhere else- possibly a 'gay club' on the internet somewhere.

What?

Do you want 26 pages of 'Is it here yet?'

FWIW, l33t is a number and vowel substitution.  w00t is closely related to the Montel Williams show, as stated.  It means 'hooray!'

a=4
e=3
i-1
0=0 (zero)
u= 3w  (y3w) ??

I think y was 7, but it has been a while.

p0wned is also part of it, but I have no idea where the 'p' came from.  Not sure on h4xx0r either.

TRG

PS.  If you are tracking this on email, just wait for the username 'MagPul' to be the poster listed (it's in the email notice) ...  Then you know it is an update.



I know better and I am very patient.  Carry on!
