I'm happy to be in the second run, gives them time to quickly iron out any issues and I was in no hurry.

Same, plus a few of the parts I ordered are also on backorder. Watching the pile of bolt-ons slowly grow is pretty excitjng.

Looking forward to August to get mine!

I really wish they’d make the entire reciever out of titanium, just to prove how fat I am.... I’m sweating just thinking about it

I already tried pitching that idea... and stainless too... Veto'd on both.

The tooling and coolant is different. I figure about $4500.00 is tooling and coolant not including the time to swap out all the tools and coolant about another $1200.00 would make it a pretty expensive receiver set if just 1 were ordered. Now if we had a few takers that cost would be split up evenly to make them more affordable.

We ARE a custom shop afterall, so if you got the pockets we can make it.

What if I were to send you a block of titanium?

We would need to know the grade of material so as to be able to order the correct inserts and tooling, but it still won't be a cheap touch.

30 or 40 guys to order Titanium Receivers could make it worth it...

I’m also really sweaty.

Alberta Titanium Receiver Supply has an interesting ring to it.

Extremely cool....but for the price of a titanium set I could afford to buy enough ammunition to wear out 2 or 3 aluminum sets lol. I'd rather be shooting.

I would order a second upper in titanium.

2055 Lithium alloy would be the only light weight one his fat guy would consider , do you know Rick if you would have to change tooling for it?

I could be a +1 as well if the price is not terribly more.

 

[purplezuk]

I said that half jokingly..... But now I'm seriously thinking about it

I’m in for a set, tax return will be here in a couple months lol.

Titanium just for strength and wear properties right? Its heavier than aluminum so it wouldnt have any weight savings without drastic changes to the cnc programming

I’m a function over fashion type of person, and I see no benefit to having a titanium receiver set. So I’m out on this one.

I'd splurge on a titanium set just for the durability of it. I've read of guys wearing out uppers where the cam pin rides. No idea how many rounds that would take though.
