Ok Gents,
I was hoping to get the triggerguards out last week but we had a few large priority orders that came in just as we were moving to our new location. We have been playing catch up ever since. Our new shipping system went online for the first time today which should free up time to post updates on everything. We are out of stock and backordered on the trigger guards but the ones for the preorder buyers are sitting safely in a box ready to be shipped out. While we really want to get the inital run of the grips started, our priority over the next week is ranger plates to fill orders for those who need them most. If you are on the preorder list you will get the grips before anyone else. It looks like we will only have enough machine time to run out the original pre order quantities before we need to switch over to another mold, so general release will probably be a month after the pre orders get sent out. On the color of the two grips. You will get two of the same color you ordered. It is hard to run and track the colors as is, so keeping things simple will help get the orders out quickly. Please remember that anyone who wishes to bow out of the pre buy can do so at anytime. I will check back and answer any questions as they arise this weekend. |
|
Yeah, I don't think you'll be seeing too many takers on that option BTW, thanx for the update. |
|
|
Am I on the pre order? You said I would be and I sent my CC info and have had no response and asked in this thread every page for like 5 pages.
|
|
Yes DevL you are in the pre order. Again sorry for the limited response but it was all I could do to keep my head above water these last 3 months. |
|
|
+1 If anybody with a CB pre-order wants to back away quietly... (and yes, I am in already x1 ) |
|

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. M590man |

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 Kevin |

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 Received the confirmation of my address change 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. MIAD Trade thread |
|
Thank you sir. |

|
Thank you Rich!
Glad to see where your priorities lie, I have no problem waiting, keep up the great work! |
|
I am too. I cant wait. |
|
|
We should be able to start molding the pre orders early next week.
|
|
YeeeeeeHaaa! (jeez, for an old guy you'd think I had some decorum) |
|
|
That's great news. Do you have any idea how long after you guys go to mold the will ship out.
|
|
My next question. I need an approximate ship date so I can quit biting my fingernails. |
|
|
w00t!! w00t!! |
|
|
Allow me to add one "w00t" to that. w00t! |

I KNOW, I'M STUPID, BUT WHAT THE HELL DOES W00T MEAN???? |

Step away from the cafine "leet" boy........................................

Welcome to Ar15.com n00b. TRG |
|
|
There are some real dumb ass people on here!Why would someone who calls themself a hacker be allowed on here?Those guys are also called Pussys!
To those that are on AR15 for a reason,could someone tell me what the MSRP is on these grips? I didnt really want to go thru all 26pages and have to read some dumb asses babble about him being a hacker.Thanks |
|
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! |
|
|
You left out the new Magpul "arched" stand alone trigger guard!

You are as much as an ILLIT3RAT3 as I am ELITE !!
See!?! I can type in the wrong keys as well as they can!! 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? 1010101 0 1001010 01010 010010 1 11 010101001 000101 0111101010 01010? 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. |

Got to do it..................................
1010101 0 1001010 01010 010010 1 11 010101001 000101 0111101010 01010? Do you know the answer to the riddle? 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 can't wait for deliverly, I hope its before Christmas so I can install them before I have to go back to Saudi Arabia. |
|
Whoah! what are you going to be doing in Saudi Arabia? I hope it's just a vacation like your 12 years in Germany, or maybe you will be straitening out all of those Saudis who breed Jihadist motherfuckers.
"All I want for Christmas is my two f-ing grips, my two f-ing grips..." I hope Rich's goodies arrive before his goodies: [<|:d>] If not then: [>(] why are the icons(santa and crying) not showing up? |
|
Sarcasm is lost on the Internet... LOL FWIW, l33t is still used quite a bit. I know of at least one company that still uses l33t codes for PWs. Just because it is teh ghey, doesn't mean it is not still used. BTW, wasn't this thread about some kind of grip or something? Oh yeah, it was... And luckily, I bought TWO, so I get Four now... w00t !

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? |

can you guys keep your little secret languages and other stuff not related to this thread to yourself or post to the GD forum. I mean come on guys! we're at 26 pages already and its hard enough for someone to find something here as it is.
|
|
+1 10+ emails a day in my inbox to links that are off subject. This pissing match is growing old. |

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. |
|
Watch Passenger 57 you should get a pretty good idea from there what W00t means. It is form a short run talk show "A. Hall".
|
|
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'm not reading thru all of this. When could we buy one and how much will it cost??

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