**************************************************
This GB is now CLOSED
I had planned on placing the order for these mid week but the owner/my contact at Falcon Arms will be gone until 5/14/04, so the order will be placed then.
At that point, I need to have payment from all particpants in this GB. All participants involved thus far have been sent a PM or email with payment info specific to their order.
**************************************************
Falcon Arms US Made Metric Mag Follower Group Buy
"New production USA made Metric follower for the FAL 20 round Magazine. These are also treated with a Nitrex process which makes them extremely hard and slippery."
http://www.falconarms.com/xcart/product_image.php?imageid=85
As many here have seen, Falcon Arms has US Made Metric Mag Followers (http://www.falconarms.com/xcart/customer/product.php?productid=75&cat=1&page=1&XCARTSESSID=3dbd473ff68420aefec53d49f3aad97e) for sale. Because of interest in these at a reduced price, I have talked with them and can get them for the prices which will be listed below.
Price per unit :
$2.00 + shipping
Due to finacial concerns, I will need to receive money up front on these when it is time to place an order. The desired quantity level has now been reached and payment for followers should be sent.

Just spoke with Falcon Arms again. $2.00 / ea + shipping is as low as we can get them.
So with that in mind, I will let this run through the weekend and close the GB on Monday. At that point I will order as soon as funds are received.
Payment Options: Cash
Postal Money Order
Cashier's Check
PayPal at {raileyha@hotmail.com} Add 3% to total
If mailing payment to me, email me for shipping address.
I am going to try to send an email or PM out to those who have responded thus far with a total for their order.
It appears you've been paypalled.

Anyone seen one of these followers up close? Are they an exact duplicate of the originals? Do they work as well as the originals?

Schmooster! got a few a while back when they were first offered and he is now in for more. Don't see why he would be buying more if they weren't any good.

I have one of these on my just completed STG carbine and it is actually better quality than many original followers I have.The Nitrex coating is great,much slicker than Parkerizing,the bolt hardly slows down when chambering a cartridge from a full mag! The BHO tab is formed perfect,plus a nice subtle USA stamp visible on top of follower.Great product.Regards!

In reply for popular demand, review of the followers.
They look and preform like the originals except that they have USA stamped on them.
I recomend them. I just wish I got them for the group price.

Paypal sent on the twenty+your customary % and shipping too!
Thanks Pal.
