The M-14's are in.

Always seek forgivness. And if you buy two you can tell her that one's for her:D:D:D

man, I was so close, filled the form out and everything then realized my credit card was at home :eek: I was worried about missing out on this deal so I phoned home and tried to subtly ask for the number but she saw through my little white lie and now she says we should "discuss" this purchase after work. I mean I know I'll buy it in the end, she does generally acknowledge the money is half mine :rolleyes:, it's just how much the bargaining will cost me. :(
 
This must have been quite a large order - when I called for one today, I was told they had a few hundred left that were unspoken for, but wouldn't say an exact number. I thought all you guys would have snapped them up already:D

Just show her some old ee postings for $750 M305's when there were none and tell her it's better than RRSP's:D

It's worth a try as long as she doen't shrink wrap it and put it in the Safety Deposit box so you won't devalue the 'investment':eek::50cal:
 
I've been calling them since March (really!) and had my name on this list since it was known here on CGN that they were taking names, sometime around June. As they've been in all week now and I didn't get a call from them I was getting real nervous and so I called them and just got one over the phone. Sounds like they got a real quantity of them though, which is awesome.

That works.... Once... Now I get asked every once in a while.
"So that last M-thingy you bought to resell... Has the price gone back up yet?"
"Not yet dear. Marstar seems to have a steady supply." (yes I'm a bad person for lying to the missus)
"Oh. So when will you get your money out of it?"
"I don't know dear..." (meanwhile I'm collecting the parts to get it shortened to 18.5 inches and a navy sight installed)

Anyone got one of those red flashy thingies from 'Men-in-Black'? That's the only way I can add an additional M14 to the gun safe.

Second and thrid ones should be about 4 weeks apart.
 
Ordered one too! Hey guys, what do you think of their M-14 Deluxe See-Thru Tactical Scope Mount? Anyone here have bought one? Should I order this at the same time or should I look for something else?

I have one, but unfortunately it only accepts weaver bases.
If you want it for $75, PM me. The mount I have has been modified
to accept ACOG as well as weaver bases.

SEI is the best but it costs $325
 
Got good news this morning. A nice sounding guy named Frank from Marstar called to confirm my order. It sounds like I've a M14 reservered for me at Marstar. :) I can't wait for it to arrive.
 
I bought 80 rnds of .308 FMJ today...ordered my M-14 yesterday...Gonna be at least 3 weeks staring at this ammo before I can try it out. :(

are you sure they said 3 weeks? cos i ordered mine a week and half ago and they said it would take 4 weeks to clear the back orders first but i like your time table better.
