Any word from Mosses on when they will now be ready? Last was a couple weeks ago.
Small stuff I thought. I bet he's really busy trying to get it done. Hopefully it's soon. I wonder if they are any lighter? Anyone know?

While I don't know all the details of Moses' efforts I do know it's been a HUGE undertaking for him. He's had setbacks and frustration but is almost there..

My "GUESS" would be diff colors require diff formula's and also create more delays.. I say make the mags in his original color/formula get them into distribution and worry about other colors down the road..

Exactly!

Pics soon! I am probably a little biased but I think they look great!

I hate I missed the shoot

It's been a month, and with all this talk of being there and 100%, I'm getting antsy!

Been working basically nonstop on these since my last post.
During some destructive testing found a couple area's we could improve upon and strengthen the mag so we are doing those changes now, these are not too difficult and should not take long.

As far as color Black is it for now, depending on how sales go there may be other color runs in the future but I have no idea on time frame at the moment, so if you want any mags I would say get them now, well, as soon as they are available.

I know the smoke clear mags are made from a different material so I'll have to do more research on if they can use the same mold.
Everything I have read says that they are not as strong or chemical resistant as the polymer we are using.

I'll let you guys know soon as I know!

You're doing great Moses. We are excited to get our hands on these. You could make them in lavender and I would still be dying to try them out.

Ill be buying 5 right off the bat!

Do you think you will be able to take one of the older versions and do a video on modifications required to make the MOSES MAG v1 usable in a RRA LAR-8??

I volunteer to work that action item if you'd like assistance. Just need a couple of the old "destructible" mags and your basic guidance

. Your call!!

Wow. If these things would TRULY work in a RRA LAR-8, that would be Christmas-come-early for me.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE work in a LAR-8...

In order for them to work in an LAR-8 you will only need to sand or file off the upper most ribs so it will fit in the LAR-8's deeper magwell.

ronpaulFAL · May 10, 2013, 05:44

I didn't think any mags worked in LAR-8s

Will_Power · May 13, 2013, 17:54

So, Moses, what do you figure on your first run of these guys?

I'm in for five (to start), but there are a lot of folks who have chimed in over the years in varying numbers who may not be around. All that logistical jazz, right?
