THANKS for the heads-up!

[gobbler]

Thanks man you just saved me $120+, been wanting one of these for several years..... I wonder if something is coming down the pike?

[gobbler]

Looks like there is a new competitor in the drum market, that is what is prompting the sale according to MD

[308bolt]

I've been watching the price on the drums for some time.
Just after noon today I saw a lot of people selling them for slightly under cost and I wondered why so I started to look for a reason.
I ran across this on another forum.

Hi, I wanted to break some news here to everyone. Due to a new comer entering the Saiga-12 drum market soon... We are lowering the price of our drum, the MD-20 to $120. You read that right, $120!!! The price will go into effect 01-26-10 at noon, Eastern time. That is less than 12 hours away. Our new competitor is not know for quality products but we felt this is something we must still do. Not only to ensure a competitive edge but to better ensure your money is well spent! From what I'm hearing, our new $120 price point will still make our drum the most affordable drum on the market. That with our proven design and reputation for reliability should keep MD Arms, Ltd by far the best choice for a saiga-12 drum mag. I could be wrong but I highly doubt the new guys are making a better mouse trap! I will post more on this tomorrow prior to Noon. We will be contacting our stocking dealers tomorrow as well to work out something on stock still held. We will be offering customers that have ordered in the past 30 days something as well. We will be opening up sales to new stocking dealers as well and will have those details in the next few days. I want to apologize and thank everyone that paid more for one in the past. This was out of our control. But we feel the ultimate outcome from this will make up for it in time. We hope you will all help us spread the word on our new low price on our proven quality product! Thanks Everyone! MikeD

Earlier this month preston1026 gave us a heads up on AGP 10 rounders which I was able to avail myself of and I thought it was very nice of him to do so.
When this deal showed up I thought to share it as he had.

I can't get the link provided or even get mdarms.com to open.

I don't have a Saiga (yet!) but I want to pick up a drum anyway.

[Scott V2]

To think I almost dropped 4 Benjamins a while back for one of those!

I tried the link again and it worked.
Is it possible it's blocked by your ISP?
BTW:
I don't have a Saiga yet either but I do have 5 AGP 10 round mags and a drum on the way as of yesterday.

not blocked by AT&T

I saw some poor sap that bought two of them for $440 yest on ar15. Guess he didn't know! Feel bad for the guy

[moses]

Cool! Thanks for the heads up!
That's more like it price wise!

[gobbler]

recieved one today & ordered 2 more....look great, although do require a bit of fitting.

[vicg1]

Thanks for the heads up, mine came in today... looks good.

[M62/M76]

I have one coming in Friday.
I don't even have a Saiga 12 yet, but I will!
Planning for the future!
Thanks for the heads up!

And the deal gets better:

Hey everyone, 02-08-2010

I swore I wouldn't do one ever again, but have to take it back. We are having another pre-order for the MD-20, our 20rd Saiga-12 drum. The price for pre-order will be 100.00 per drum. After we are restocked and shipping again the price will go back up to $120 per drum. Many of you are aware of how the pre order works. 50% down with remaining 50% and shipping due a couple days before we process and ship. We will contact you around a week in advance so the payment doesn't come as a surprise or over draw anyone's account if it's a bad time for the remaining balance. We are looking at 6 weeks to restock, maybe more, maybe less.
We are also currently out of the gunfixer's gas plug. We wont be offering a preorder on those because they will likely be back in stock before the drums are. And it would be a serious pain to break up a pre-order to ship a plug early. If you want a plug and don't mind waiting for one until your drums ships, you can have us add one to your order when we contact you about the remaining balance. If you want one before your drum ship's we will let you know as soon as they are back in stock.

Thanks again everyone and stock up! MikeD

The "newcomer" to the drum market must be the ones from Promag. The SAIA7 12 round drum $103.00 and the SAIA6 20 round drum $128.50. If these drums work as well as the stick mags from Promag for the Saiga, it's not very promising.

[Tsm002]

MD arms is leagues ahead of promag....

But I hear promag is coming out with a new microdrum. We'll see. Be interesting.
