Anyone have any idea's on these Magpul products?

I'm guessing these will be tough to import into Canada?

I would bet $$ that the PTS is a different polymer, probably some not very dimensionally stably, and I bet you would have trouble holding an accurate zero over temperature fluctuations.

I think those are pre-production models. I believe the production models have different mounting hardware.

Wolverine is the Canadian Civilian Distributor for Magpul -- I would be harping on him...

I think those are pre-production models.

They are. The idea was to show the vast difference between PTS and "real" MagPul.

I read they're suppose to be around $100USD for the set when they finally get released.

And you guys think that's what we will be charged for them? Just like a Pmag is listed as 14 bucks US, but we pay 65 bucks. Same thing will happen here, only thing to think about is these things are plastic,oops excuse me......advanced space-age polymer and will no doubt cost us $160 or more CAD. But somehow they have less plastic in them than a $12 pack of Pmag Ranger Plates from Brownells.

Better yet, for $170 CAD you can get a set of YHM BUIS from Fab that flip up,are built out of steel,and cost the same as Magpul's plastic version.

The only problem is that YHM currently is not as high on the cool scale as Magpul.So that will be most peoples deciding factor.

There's a review of these products here if you guys are still interested. Have a look?

Plastic sights are crap, I don't care who makes them. As ajayofcanada said, they're high on the "look cool" scale so I'm sure there'll be a demand for them.
