How Much?

[rivetc78]

cou:Sorry...I just had too

[P90Puma]

If you get 5/10 round mags into the country properly marked, you may find that you will outsell anything else you could possibly bring in.

[ghost2vp]

I'm sold.... I have always wanted this.... WHEN, WHEN, WHEN!!!!

[Pig4000]

Is there even a source for loaded ammo and components in Canada for the caliber?

[Armtac]

We will carry the reloading brass and the reloading dies.

The bullets will be quite easy to find in Canada. As for the loaded ammo, Armtac is not setup to deal with ammunition and we are working on that now.

is the .50 beowulf that calibre that fits .223 doubled-stacked in the same mag?

[bbartsch]

Interested as well. Put me on your list of interested individuals please.

[Blastattack]

You better import a billion or so appropriately marked magazines. I think that you will become very rich if you do.

[cadgo]

is the .50 beowulf that calibre that fits .223 doubled-stacked in the same mag?

Yes, you can put .50 beowulf in a 5.56 magazine. Anything beyond that is speculation.:ninja:

[Eddie Honda]

is the .50 beowulf that calibre that fits .223 doubled-stacked in the same mag?

No, you're thinking of 458 socom.

From the Alexander Arms site:


Will the Beowulf® magazine feed .223 shells?

No, it will not.

[ghost2vp]

Just to add to my last post on here...

I have cash ready for the 12" model! let me know the price and I'm am sold on it.

Also, I did the math on the numbers at Alexander Arms: An 12" upper as described by Armtac would cost $1059.99 US (NOT IN CANADA, again as per Alexander Arms website!!!).

Just throwing that all out there.

[simpleton]

Sweet baby Jesus......daddy wants :)

[8 ball]

Hmmm, and now I need another AR!

[twistedbrilliance]

Tagged because I want one:rockOn:

[jcsmith]

And I've been trying so hard to get a 450 Bushmaster upper, waiting...waiting:popCorn:

[rya]

sweet Mary mother of god, please for the love of all that is holy and pure do not just bring in those crappy lee dies.... redding please.

that being said

please put me on the list for this, i want one like a fat kid wants cake

p.s. i am so getting the look form the wife as im posting this.

p.p.s. yes you can put .223 in a .50b mag but you have to modify the feed lips to feed .50b in a .223 mag

X2 for the Redding dies

[mobgma]

Love the .50 upper! Any chance we may ever see there infamous 17HMR semi auto?

[P12]

What about a 458 Socom pistol and properly marked 10 round pistol mags?

[Eddie Honda]

More from the Alexander Arms site:


Will the Beowulf® magazine feed .223 shells?

No, it will not.

Can any .223 magazine be used in the .50 Beowulf®?

Yes, but the feed lips must be modified. The feed lips need to be opened up to allow for the much larger cartridge. In addition, a new follower needs to be installed to allow for the single stack configuration of the Beowulf® cartridge.

I'm guessing that if you tried to load .223 into a Beowulf magazine, it most likely wouldn't function.

.458 socom uses unmodified AR15 mags. I believe .450 bushmaster does as well.

I'm just going by what it says on the Alexander Arms/Teppo Jutso websites. I've never handled any of those calibers.

[foxbat]

I'm in for an upper, dies, etc.
Any chance of a 6.5Grendel upper as well?

[phnol]

all in!

[Armtac]

AA indicated to me that the 10 rounds .50 mags will likely be able to use .223 Rem, however, u will have some feeding problem with the last round.

We will announce the price next week or so.

[JohnnyMac]

I'm interested in the 6.5 grendel as well.

[Vincent1213]

I would also be interested in the 6.5 Grendel.

[Eddie Honda]

I've wanted a big bore AR for a long time... Thanks so much for endeavoring to bring them to the Canadian market.

[ghost2vp]

Any updates on the Beowulf?

I am so excited I changed my profile picture.

[Leg]

Wish I could afford another upper right now.

Does this mean you can get anything from Alexander Arms? I've been wanting one of their VentguardML free float tubes for a couple of years.

its next week....

[Armtac]

We will post the price asap this week.

[ghost2vp]

Price?

[rya]

i know im hoping they will bring in the 12" upper with a muzzle break on it, or at least bring them in threaded and sell the breaks separately

[Armtac]

Price finally posted. (See Post #1)

[phnol]

Nice!! Do you have any approx for ETA?

[Boomer686]

Tagged for interest!

[Armtac]

ETA is around 1 to 2 months.

[phnol]

When is the time limit to submit an order?

[Armtac]

nope, but if you miss this shipment then u will have to wait for another one.

[jasonn]

Will there be any 10 round .50 beo pistol mags?:)

[Petrock]

sweet Mary mother of god, please for the love of all that is holy and pure do not just bring in those crappy lee dies.... redding please.

It's probably the "Joker" face you're making.

That and the massive erection you're suddenly sporting.

[Armtac]

No pistol mag with ten rounds yet, we will need to mark the magazine before coming in.
