quick update to this group buy. we are about 10 days behind with the production-small shop but the big jobs have priority. anyway, should be ready to ship the currently paid orders middle-end of next week. thanks for your patience.

if you have already placed/paid your order, it is not too late to add another set - if you so desire.

thanks, david

i contacted msa this morning to inquire about availability of the part-which they call a 'door stopper'. last time in their inventory was 2007, priced at $21-each. now they are no longer available. bummer, i can't imagine how many i have thrown away. i will, however, have a few pair available once i get what i do have replated.

update-the parts that were at the plater were...ruined. they bake springs after the plating process [if you understand mettalurgy then please explain it to the rest of us] and baked these-subsequently melted the plastic pieces that act against the spring. so, the 8 pair i had are no longer usable, i'm bummed!

picked up the first pair of dovetails this morning along with the ss mounting hardware and will ship them tomorrow. he hopes to have the others that are preordered completed this saturday. thanks for your patience for this order!

shipped the remaining pre-ordered dovetails this morning [albeit a week behind schedule...] and wanted to say thanks to all of you who participated in the [hybridz] group buy!

this group buy is not limited by a large manufacturer or me ordering in any certain quantity, so if you are interested in a pair they will continued to be offered as long as there is demand.

thanks, david
