Re: Remington 700 bottom metal *new pics*

That is one sweet DBM. I cannot wait to get mine. Now to locate my mags, get ready to have the stock inleted. Do I do the H.S. precision? Or get a manners or McMillian?

I have this in his SA. And I am here to tell you, his product is the shit. High quality, his customer service is top notch. I will gladly purchas his product again.

I bought this from Colin for the simple fact that I like the price, and for that price it is worth a try. It too looks high quality, and his customer service has been awesome. So we have two great products and two great people to deal with.

Only downfall to Colin's is it does not come with the mag. But don't let that discourage you.

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

This is my factory stock. I went with it first since it is all plastic,and would be easier than my other stock. (Cheaper too) I had to go real slow and test fit often. Also had to be careful and not set it to deep where the screws would come in contact with bolt. Now i just need my mags to arrive or my buddy let me borrow one.

 

[Furtaker_.223]

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

could you not get it flush with that stock?

 

[snp81076]

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

If i would have gone any deeper the screws would hit the bolt.

 

[Wardy]

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

How about trimming the screws off so the bottom metal would fit stock flush? Would that have worked?

 

[BapZander]

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

I'm wondering if it will feed properly set in only that much. Guess we'll wait for your buddy to show up with a loaner mag.

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

You could go to your hardware store and get shorter hex head screws.

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

Got mine today. I really like it, can't wait to get the stock inletted.

 

[kytrapper]

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

Thanks for the update Shay- Let me know if there is anything you don't like about it ( don't want to do a GB if there is a problem with them).....I Think that the GB will take place Soon!!!!!!How many would be in???

 

[_Shay_]

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

I can't find anything I dislike about mine, so far it is excellent. Machining and quality is great.

 

[Furtaker_.223]

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

Does anyone know what LA mag I will need for a 300 RUM? I see there is a couple different sizes. Colin told me the inlet inside was 3.740

 

[patriotoutlaw]

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

I'd be interested in a L/A on a GB.

 

[ertlonggun]

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

I would be in for at least 1 LA if not 2.

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

How long did it take them to get back the paperwork from the Defence Export Control Office?

[cnofear2000]

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

These look great, has anyone heard any updates on when more will be available? I would love to get my hands on one!

 

[450exc]

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

Colin said he had a batch of them going out next week and over half of those are already sold.

 

[burgessb]

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

Work faster. I want to see one of these and see how it fits.

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

I need to find a smith that will inlet it, and I need to get a mag to test it.

 

[BapZander]

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

Someone send that man a mag - if I had one I would have sent it, but I only have bdl bottom metal at the moment - hence the desire for a dbm...

I do have a chisel I can send if that will help with the inletting part

 

[snp81076]

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

I put a mag in it today. It looked like when it is flush the mag will be just right with the reciever. Will have to find some shorter bolts too. Hope to have it all done tomorrow.

 

[snp81076]

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

Oh yeah the mag fit real nice and snug. Very little wobble in it.

 

[swift fox]

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

Looks awesome. I will stay tuned for a possible group buy. Thanks to those who have taken the lead on this.

 

[burgessb]

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

i would def like to see one in. i got the info and i am about to send him the money.

i want a second onre for my 223 if i can find a 223 mag!

 

[earthquake]

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

I'm still interested. A GB would be great...as long as they fit!

 

[Wardy]

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

Got mine today...looks awesome! Now just need to find the time to get the stock right to accept it...

 

[Creighton]

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

[Furtaker_.223]

[kytrapper]

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

Get the interest Going This GB is in the WORKS!!!!

Just give a little time to Insure all Import / Export Details are worked out ( As pointed out by the kind folks from TRIAD)


I hope everyone will be like me and use this time to start saving up to make sure they grab a bargain or two...


Thanks Guys for all the interest

...When All Legalities are worked out with proper permit numbers available for those who require them.... I will post what is offered and help facilitate this project...


Until them I will keep progress posted in this thread

" Keep Rounds on Target Shooters!!!"

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

By the time I exchanged a few emails with Australian DOD, and a few phone calls to ATF...
Silly me for thinking exporting stuff was a pain in the ass

Good luck.

[earthquake]

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal *new pics*

So do you have to call Atlasworkx directly and order, or are these on eBay?

I am somewhat confused with this... What exactly is going on that is wrong here?

 

[jtb33]

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

My guess is a new product that is very close to an existing Badger/CDI/etc DBM that is 1/2 to 1/3 the price.

Does it have to go through paypal? I've never bought anything from outside the CONUS.

 

[kytrapper]

Re: Remington 700 bottom metal alternative

The deal is some one is trying to side rail this....

The international import / export laws covering firearms and there parts had been brought up.. I believe Atlas has there patents covered so give us a little time... Calls have been made to the authorities in both countries and answers are being worked on by them.....

Hopefully this will go through and all interested parties will get a chance at some good metal for a good deal!!!!



Thank You

It probably don't have to, but he gets the payment a week and a half earlier. It is just alot smoother to pay via paypal if the seller accepts it. JMO

Whats wrong here?

People are piling on my back because I pointed out the possibility that they may be breaking a law or two.
Apparently the fact that there are laws in Australia that regulate the export of firearms parts, and for the import of them into the US don't amount to much if you can save some money...



DaveD, are you calling me a RAT, or is that your signature line?
