KAM Designs M86 Automag Frame Pre-order.

[splat15k]

Ver's were competely Jai's work.

I had to have one. Even without any planned use.

Those are certainly awesome frames; I ended up selling mine though as I simply didn't use it at all.

[cougar20th]

Frames are at beadblast (for those that get it.) & ano. Gotta get boxes ready for when they come.

[cougar20th]

Update:
Raws are on the way to me.
Anodized should be shipped to me a couple days after that.
Honestly they will not ship until after New Years at this point between holidays and assembly.

Once they are in my hands I will start pm'ing those that still owe.
Once shipped I will send everyone their tracking numbers.

If you want yours disassembled then let me know. (I know someone did).

Updated picks of just before packaging to come to me.

[splat15k]

Lookin' good!

Twas I, sir. Thank you for allowing that option, by the way. I figure why bother pressing in the trigger pin in a raw frame when we'd have to remove it for ano.

[BigEvil]

Good job Keith. See guys, not all preorders can be fuster-clucks.

[cougar20th]

Trigger pin is held in like the VER frames with 2 setscrews from the top. Nice simple and you dont chance messing up your ano. I think its one of ethe excellent ideas Jai had for the VER.

All the screw will be supplied. They will be stainless.

AWESOME!!! I loved that feature of the VER! With that being the case, feel free to send mine assembled if that simplifies things for you.

UPDATE: The frames are being delayed. (Not something I like to do to you guys.)

Reason: The hole for the twistlock pin was drilled with a flat bottom instead of the drill point. Its something that you would think is insignificant but the twistlock detent needs the extra space created by the drill point to fit. It was a file translation problem not really anyone's fault.

They are all going back for fixing. They ship back tomorrow. They will be fixed and turned around in a day.

I will not send out frames as is. Don't ask. I'm not doing this to be a ass I'm doing it because I feel it would make them harder for you guys to potentially sell later if they don't fit every gun. I want the best for everyone and am thinking of your resale as I'm building these.

As always I'm sorry for the delay.

I did receive the raws they look great and work great with the exception of the above. I will try to get pictures tonight. We are progressing and you will all get the best product I can get you.

that is the kind of quality control that makes this and anything from Kieth a great product. a little wait now so that they will work on whatever is no problem from me.

Thanks,

Guess who's frame was used to test.

[BTAutoMag]

nobody's

[cougar20th]

nobody's

Yup.

Now that this has happened. I will be testing every frame on a gun before they go out.

[DarkApollo]

Good thing since I have a twist lock body for mine..

[splat15k]

Nice catch, Keith! Thanks again for keeping us well-informed.

[cougar20th]

Ok Guys,

Heres pictures of the raws. Labeled for there recipients. Along with their parts. Pins & screws not shown.



Now here are some pictures of Nobodys mounted to my Stock class pumpmag.




There are both Plain & engraved frames. Engraving was only for BEO Mafia guys.

Edit: just for more of my piece of mind i went up and tore down the red mag. Tore down my purple pump.mag. put it back to semi and put this frame on it. No issues. Fires great.

[splat15k]

Those frames (and that pump mag!!) are outrageously sexy!

[Nobody]

is it a good thing that you broke the cherry on my frame? what about your VER RT? did you get that working yet or would yours kinda go on that so you can use it?

its all good. with the delay, what is the expect time to delivery?

[knownothingmags]

dang prolly should have gotten one of these.

[DarkApollo]

Thats the rail that I have been looking for too!
Glad to know the body and rail that I have picked out for my build is going to look SEXY.

That particular rail is a Taso. I was lucky enough to get it new still wrapped. That was in 2005/06. Still haven't used that gun on a field yet.

Better I tested with your frame then send them as is. Thats for sure. Figured you wouldn't mind. Its not like Im doing destructive testing yet.

The E90 RT....I haven't even looked at it. Scott says send it back to him so I may. I really think that gun shouldn't have been built.

[maverick13]

I missed the pre-order period and I hardly regret it.

[Levi]

Looking good Keith!

No concerns here about the delay, I appreciate that you are insisting these be 100% correct before going out.

I just paypalled you the remaining balance for my frame.

[cougar20th]

I apperciate that everyone understands the delays and are being patient.

I tore down my M90 pnuemag today. Installed all the pnue parts that fit. Lpr still wont without modifiying the bracket (itll still be damn tight fitting a lpr in there even after modding) and I cant do that to a customer frame. But the pnue hose fits thru the chanels on the bottom of the frame perfectly as i had planned so a lpr could be mounted to the asa. Sorry no pictures.

I also pulled the agd saftey out of the M90 and installed it in the m86.

[cougar20th]

Frames should be arriving at the machinist today or tomorrow. Ill have to check the tracking when I get home. I was told 1 day turn around. So I expect parts next week. Then assembly & Shipping to you guys.

[cougar20th]

Raw frames are back to me. Anodized will be here shortly. I will be assembling, testing and shipping shortly. I will also be contacting those that still need to make final payments once all the frames are tested.

Huzzah!!

[cougar20th]

Raws get assembled tonight. Packaged and shipped next week.

[cougar20th]

Ive a couple questions about the LPR fit. Below is a rendering of the mods needed. (frames will NOT come modded). IT will still be tight. I know it was in the orignal post that they would need minor modding but pictures help.

Note: the channel directly behind the front lower grip screw is for a hose so you can asa mount a LPR. This way you dont have to hack the grips or frame.

Tickler shown rendered.


If anyone really has a issue with this let me know.

[splat15k]

No issues with that; looks like the mod would be easy enough.

[cougar20th]

First frames are on their way to people.

Raws only.

PracticeTarget raw is waiting for his ano'd frame to ship together.

Anyone who requested disassembled there is a bag with all the screws tucked inside the frame. The panels and trigger are in another bag. Be careful with the screws. Theres 2 tiny 4-40 x 1/8 screws in there for the trigger pin. If you drop them you probably wont find them

ALL hardware is Stainless Steel.

Here is a Rendering showing screws. (included with yout frame as well)
