    Update on AGD Products

    AO,

    You all have been asking about stuff so here is the update.

    Reg seats for Flatlines are being produced in England and are promised in the next few weeks. We will believe it when they get here.

    This batch of Xmags is going to ano this week. No warp right modules at this time since they are being redesigned for a 90 degree feed tube.

    The next batch of Xmags is getting cooked quickly over in England to try and get them through before the big lawsuit happens. Watch for progress pics on the forum.

    Warp Sluggos now have a print and the po is with the machine shop. Maybe 4-6 weeks since they are behind on other stuff of ours.

    More ULE bodies both vert and warp are on deck too.

    ULE bodied Emags and RTpros are happening as soon as we get the J&J barrels back from ano.

    New rail for base mags is in the works, we are deciding here on the forum what cosmetics to use.

    There will be a Sluggo Rail available when the new rail comes on line too. This is for Classics and Minimags not RTpros or Emags.

    The original RT trade in of your old body and valve for a new X valve and ULE body is getting finalized this week. I think the price was 325 or so with trade in.

    We are calling the ULE Trigger Assembly a big success and are about to run out of the first batch. More on the way but we might be out of stock for a bit.

    The Smart Parts lawsuit has been moved to October so we are going forward with the 3.0 software for now. My software guy can take forever or sometimes does it overnight so I don't know when it will happen. It IS in the works.

    We have a new scenario Slug body in the works but its secret for now.

    We have a new VERY COOL milled slug body that we are gearing up on. Once our machine shop gets up to speed with contour milling we can do more coool cosmo stuff on the slugs.

    Thats all for now!!

    Wow! Lots of stuff happening with AGD.

    I'm dissapointed with the cost of the RT trade-in program though. X-valves sell for 225 at events (i think) and ULE bodies are 145. That means if we do the trade-in program we're only getting about $50 bucks for our valve and body. I'm hoping the price will be less than the 325 figure, but I think I'd rather stick with my cool looking SS RT body and long lasting SS valve for that price.

          thanks for the update!

          Regarding the 3.0 software...

          If Smart Parts brings on a lawsuit, will we still be able to flash our 2.4 to upgrade it to 3.0?

          If not, does that mean we need rush and send in our boards ASAP if we want the 3.0?

          Thanks

            Hmmm, I just got my new RT Pro in... guess I should of held off a few weeks. Oh well, I guess its just an excuse to get a Dallara body! Although this sounds interesting...

              If this is the confidence you have in your supplier then you should find a new one. I find it very hard to believe that you cannot find a company in the US to make a reg seat. The wait on this item is unacceptable to those of us who own 4500 Flatlines.

                    I couldn't be more happy hearing about the new software update and in my opinion is the best thing on the list that will do the most for your company. Can we send tip money into your software guy to "motivate" him

                    I call 1st dibs on the software!

                          All very good news. I hope the ULE Bodied E-Mags come in soon, I'm second guessing my Viking right now, and the E-Mag is in mind.

                            Calm down man. It's not like your the only one waiting for one. I am sure that there is a reason that they order it from Europe. No need for the elitist attitude.

                            Good news to hear. Been wondering when my XRTP would come in and can't wait to get it.

                            Will there be calls when they are ready to ship out?
