"The “Sporter” conversion kit will include our own unique floor metal with five shot magazine and the necessary replacement components."

could you expound on this a little? is this an assy that replaces the trap door on your existing bdl trigger guard/trapdoor assy, that is if one is using a bdl stock? a picture is worth a thousand words.

thanks - van </div></div>

At this time, the information is protected and there won't be any pictures of it available anytime soon. The "SPORTER" system will be as disruptive and unique as the "TACTICAL" system.

Re: Stepping Up To the Plate

OK Guys, we were slowed down a little on the production of the magazines with a few issues related to the ultrasonic welding of the halves. The problem has been resolved and we'll have production magazines in a few weeks. We'll have capacity for better than 10,000 magazines per month.

Conversions are in the works for what we've received so far and we're doing a number of RAVAGE Package builds. [/quote

When you say <span style="text-decoration: underline">Coversions are in the works</span> Your doing the Sporters now?

The conversions we're doing now are all TACTICAL Conversions. The SPORTER Conversion will likely not start this year.

Affirmative, I got it. Please keep us posted with the sporter R & D as you move forward. Like to build a CMP/squirrel and a sihloutte sporter rifle and the tactical is just not practical for that.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: BlackOps Tech</div><div class="ubbcode-body">O.K. Guys, I know this took a while, but I finally had time to get the pics up of the Rimfire Conversion. The specs are:

Remington 40XB Action--BlackOps Technologies Controlled Round Feed Repeater Conversion.
18" Krieger Barrel, Threaded 1/2-28
BlackOps Recoil Lug
BlackOps Firing Pin
BlackOps Fire Control System
BlackOps Ejector
BlackOps Bolt Knob
BlackOps EHD DBM System
BlackOps 22LR Magazine (this is the 3D print, not the production version)
BlackOps Trigger
BlackOps SPECTER NV Mount
BlackOps/Manners MCS-T
BlackOps Forend Rail
AFAR Kit
Trademark BlackOps Fit and Finish
BlackOps Catalyzed Epoxy Stock Finish
MilSpec Cerakote

I'm finally flipping the switch on offering this service and we'll do full builds as well. The production magazines will be available within the next five weeks. Give Michelle a call and she'll get you going.

M. Gordon, your's is the next one in the mill.... </div></div>

FYI - I saw this at the range this morning. Engaging the steel target at 462 yards with regular clarity! This is an extremely nice rifle and beyond badass for a rimfire. If you've got one of these on order then you have a great rifle coming once the magazines are done. Very well done, Mike!

Thanks Scott. We have quite a few of these in the works now, along with RANCH Rimfire Packages. We're getting all the conversions completed while we're awaiting a large Krieger order. A lot of 22's in the shop right now.

Re: Stepping Up To the Plate

Do you have a list of people in line for the conversions and ideas of your conversion rate and time?

For the conversion, can we just send you the rifle and you send it back, or are we going to have to go thru an FFL?

Hey ColdDead,

If you own the rifle, you just send it in, they do their thing, you pay, they return rifle. Easy Peezy.

If you want, when I get mine back, I would be happy to meet up with you sometime so you can look it over/fondle/etc. I usually shoot the 22 match at WHAC on the 3rd weekend of the month.

Regards,
DT

Everyone has been putting in their names for the list, so I assumed that there was a line or priority list, and I didn't want to cut. Can't wait to see yours. I haven't shot the WHAC, but in reading the rules, isn't there a 'battle rattle' portion where you have a set time to shoot as many rounds as possible?

I believe the list is for new rifles, but with just a rifle mod, it would be hard to impossible to try to keep a list to gether, other than a list as you call Michelle and make arrangements to send in your rifle. In other words a work que just like any other smith. But again thats my .02 and Mike coud prob answer better his MO.

As for the WHAC match, there is no "battle rattle". There are 4 strings of fire, and you have 120secs to engage 10 steel targets from 35-150 yards, then a bonus round with a target at 200 yds, 175 yds, and a know your limits at 65 yds, all steel. Very fun match. But I have always been seriously handicapped in trying to dial for all the targets, as well as loading single feed on my 40x. That is why I am so freaking excited for this conversion.

DT

Did I miss a cost for a full build in one of your new actions? Also, what type of cost if this were put into an AICS?

Re: Stepping Up To the Plate

For all of you on the list, Michelle started sending emails on October 1st for Pre-Orders of the Model 605 Rimfire Action. Basically, there's one big list and there's no discernment between the ones wanting to be on the list for conversions versus the Model 605, as the wants for the 605 far outweighed the conversions.

We're finishing up a number of conversions today, and I've been reaching out to a few of you. The conversions we expect to finish this week are:

DTros
A10XRifle
KYS338
MGordon

We have quite a few more conversions to do and either I or Michelle will be in touch.

The magazines are out another couple of weeks. The molds have been burned and we're nearly finished with the machined inserts. We're still working on the tooling for the Ultra-Sonic welder, but I expect we'll be shooting material within the time-frame we've given.

This project certainly hasn't been a small undertaking, but I want to Thank you guys again for sticking it out with me. If you have any questions, please call the shop and either Michelle or Tammy will get you squared away.

Be in Turdville, Afg starting Sat 05 Oct 12. Please holler at me via email for the Sporter Conversion. I am on the "way old" list when you start those after the new year. Be a nice gift after another round with the shitbirds.

Great to follow the thread after all these years.

Yo Smag,
I'll keep you posted on the SPORTER Conversion. I'll get it finished up once we're rolling hot and heavy on the TACTICAL production. I imagine I'll be back on it right after SHOT 2013.
