i ordered one like 2 weeks ago but I never got it. :(

also they tax like 3.50 - 4.50 over what ups charges for shipping, I guess thats the handling part of the "shipping and handling".

I might get one. Does anyone know if they're any good and what bore size they have?

I dont want to sound rude here, but who the cares what bore size it is!? They're less than $15! if I had a mag I'd have a couple of these by now.

I'm getting a bigshot too and if they have identical ID's then I'll save the $15. I guess the 12" or 14" DYE might be worth it for the quietness, but I kinda like'em loud. Besides the DYE's are way to ugly to want that bad anyway. Anyone else miss those simple original DYE's from like '98-'99? I hate all this extra foofiness they're milling into everything now. Clean lines.

Pretty good smaller bore size not near the size of the barrel I got stock with my Mag. The nubbin has been giving me issues though. :mad: :cry:

Don't get it. I got one last week. It is for vert feed only. It will not, absolutely will not fit anything else without modification. I emailed someone and was quoted 30-40 to have it machined to fit powerfeed. So I kind of regret getting it, its not such hot deal after all.

I may be selling my back to it shortly (these barrels are the 2 piece). I will be keeping the front and buying an ultra light back for it.

If you want it to fit and be ghetto take out the twist lock assembly itself and then just let the barrel o rings hold it in snug. I did this while I was waiting for my Ule and it didnt move around.
