    I know with the way the our dollar has been going lately, this might be a stupid question, but how much of a price increase are you guys expecting for the next production run?

    Since our last order of the parts that we do not make in-house the Canadian dollar has lost 11% of its value to USD, so to keep up with this on the next orders for these same parts we need to increase the cost by 11%.
    Please keep in mind that only the parts we do not make and have to import are effected. The raw materials used to make the uppers and lowers have only risen by 3%.
    Our labor costs have not changed, and our margin is not changing at all.

    IF by some miracle the loonie gains some value in the future we will reduce the pricing, but for now we have to deal with current exchange rates and the costs set by our suppliers in the USA.

    Gen 3 Pmags do NOT work, if fact they don't work in most AR10s. The only rifle we have encountered that they actually DO work in is the Knights rifle.
    This is why we have undertaken producing our own mags to fit the Modern Hunter and the XCR-M as well as the DPMS style AR10 variants.

    The Modern Varmint will use any STANAG mag for an AR15, but will ship from us with our AT15 mag.

    We are told another week or so until we have the latest revision for testing. Once we are happy we will pull the pin and get many made which will not take long.
    Our goal is to have them fully tested and ready for sale by end of February. fingers crossed.

    Unfortunately with the loonie loosing so much value we are forced to adjust the pricing on the parts we have to import from the USA on the next production run.


    Only 1 day left to get old pricing. February is fast upon us.

    Your website is rather finicky to order from. I attempted to order one of your badboys last year but got fed up with the website.
    Question: If I am interested in adding something in later on how problematic is that? Ie going from a heavy to a medium barrel?

    Additionally, I dislike brakes. All I wanted was a nice cheap flash hider. If/when I do that would you consider that a mod and thus voiding the warranty?

    Also, will the product, when shipped, let the buyer know who the barrel manufacturer is?

    thanks
