    New press announcement from Area 419

    Lots of presses have shipped, more are shipping today, more tomorrow. We have tried to be geographically strategic to get as many to doorsteps by Christmas as possible. We never, ever wanted any of these to arrive after Christmas, but unfortunately it looks like some may miss. We hate it more...

    New press announcement from Area 419

    All ZEROs, parts, and accessories are shipping as fast as we can get them in boxes and labeled! That said, educational bit, apart from dust covers on the first round, no press has or will ever ship "with" another item. We package the presses in custom boxes, and in on-size cartons. Additional...

    New press announcement from Area 419

    What we found out is it's got a lot to do with the actual lot of A2. All studs grow a lot when we heat treat, which is why we machine to an oversize, then heat treat, and finally turn to the exact size we want. Tough process turning something at a 65-68 Rockwell, but it's the right thing to do...

    New press announcement from Area 419

    Fellas - just sent this email to all open ZERO orders. Wanted it here as well. ----- All, Good news! We are actively assembling presses, and many of you will receive shipping notifications soon. We have a bulk pickup scheduled for Saturday where we anticipate most or all of these presses to...

    Yeah, I tried to get Scheels to dump the zip ties, they say they are required to keep them tied for liability reasons.

    New press announcement from Area 419

    I really do. It's a hell of a blessing to be able to wake up in the morning and love what we do and know that when we ship product, that box with our tape or label with our logo will make a guy smile even before he cuts open the box.

    New press announcement from Area 419

    Nope, because we haven't shipped any. They will leave with the batch of presses we are assembling now. Hopefully next week, but with the way Black Friday went (it was a really big few days) and the PRS Finale eating up a lot of man hours, it may be the week after.

    New press announcement from Area 419

    We are going to wait to post these until they are back from Nitride. With things crazy as they are, we aren't making any moves to get ahead of ourselves. I'd expect them soon, and in time to have them under your christmas tree. Just make sure your wife doesn't open them with the Amazon packages ;)

    New press announcement from Area 419

    Set your decapper up just like a sizing die. Ram to the top, screw in the die until contact, lower the ram, thread in the die another 1/8-1/4 turn, tighten the lock ring. A few other guys have had the same issue, this has solved it for each of them.

    New press announcement from Area 419

    The major problem with simple putting a load cell in a press (or the arbors with needles) is the basic premise of Force = Mass X Speed. This is why the unit you show and the AMP seating unit have automated press function, as it makes the speed constant. On a manual press like the ZERO any...

    New press announcement from Area 419

    This whole arbor seater is something we very well may make, just a matter of getting time on machines. Once we move, this will be easier as we are buying a pile of new CNCs. If someone has to have one in the meantime, I think it would work with any of the heads, just make sure your surface on...

    New press announcement from Area 419

    Brownells has a pallet of them ordered in the batch we are about to ship, should be a good opportunity. Also, Scheels likely has a few in stock, but I don't know which stores has them left.

    New press announcement from Area 419

    The scalloped shape on the inside of the top edge (if that makes ANY sense at all) - we have a wrench to fit. Think about it as being an open-ended torx wrench? That way you're not competing against other dies to grab the ring to tighten/loosen.

    New press announcement from Area 419

    Promise we are actively working on those - making some fitment changes and getting them back into full production.

    Suppressors TBAC CB mount vs Area 419

    Worth adding here - our CB mounts have a baffle built into them that is very geometrically similar to a CB brake, hoping to keep the performance of the cans as close to the same as possible when using our mounts.

    New press announcement from Area 419

    Fellas - been a bit since I jumped on. Second batch: Initial goal had been to ship around Thanksgiving. Looks like it'll be the week of 12/7, plenty of time to get them under your Christmas trees. I expect the batch will be fully sold out in the next few days. Third batch: Guessing mid-Feb...
