hitmanNo2 Posted September 21, 2013 Report Share Posted September 21, 2013 From Bunny, I believe you could order the FDE one up to the 19th of Sep and then they stopped taking orders for that version. Link to post Share on other sites
vinceg Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 anyone tried the ace 1 version? any reviews? Link to post Share on other sites
Danke Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 Red dot's here. Now wait wait wait. Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 Red dot's here. Now wait wait wait. Got mine today too. The G OP one I assume? What do you think of it? I just had a quick look and it doesn't seem that great. I don't know if I got a lemon but the dot isn't too defined or bright and it's all over the place. I mean, you can't expect RS quality but it's pretty poor compared to other ACM red dots. Almost unusable I think. Link to post Share on other sites
Danke Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 It's gonna be tough. It's really the distance that you hold a pistol from your eye that underlines this. I guess no more sloppiness is on the horizon. Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 Yeah. I held it out at arms length and...well. I have a feeling I'll be using the raised irons and not even turning thing on. Link to post Share on other sites
kojak Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 There are at least three different replica RMR sights out there. The one I got from the first run (non-adjustable version) worked just fine on a pistol, but at arms length a bigger brighter dot like the replica Eotech MRD has would be much easier/faster to pick up.

WTF?Shane Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 Bumping this thread. Boom Arms advertised a mid October release, but no other word. No ETA from Guns Modify or other retailers. Bunny Workshop posted this vid a few days ago. Demo slide has an ugly cutout near the chamber. Hope to dear baby Jesus that the production slide doesn't have the same cutout. Bunny Workshop also posted a pic of some unfinished Glock style slides on their Facebook. Soon??? https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=738427392855971&set=a.254810067884375.66018.227961040569278&type=1&theater Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 Boom Arms have told me they should be getting it end of October as the production schedule slipped a bit. Link to post Share on other sites
PureSilver Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 I mean, I'm not knocking the work or workers required to build these slides, but couldn't they have at least tried to tidy up before posting promotional material? I can't really recall the last time Knights or LaRue posted production-process photos where billet-machined metal was lying on old newspaper and buried in marker pens.

Hanger Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 came across this on some japanese blog. Looks like to be Gun Modify? They have Tier 1 or Tier 2 RMR slides http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=ja&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Foceancustomtactical.militaryblog.jp%2Fe479572.html Cost relatively close to Gun Modify's prices http://octstrategic.cart.fc2.com/?ca=all&page=0 I'm diggin the FDE Tier 1 Link to post Share on other sites
WTF?Shane Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 Hanger, look a few pages back. It's Ace 1 Arms. Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 Seemingly only available for G18s too at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites
Hanger Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 Hanger, look a few pages back. It's Ace 1 Arms. I don't think so. I have only seen ACE Tier 2 slides on the market. Unless they released a limited batch to Japan edit: nvm. just saw boomarms have both tier 1 & 2 ACE slides. Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 Those are 100% definitely Ace 1 Arms. Link to post Share on other sites

Well I've been in a lot of spots and I've seen amazing things come from places that look like a bomb went off and the guy running the machine looks like a hobo, and I've seen a lot of places with foo foo presentation used to dress up junk. The could pull the stuff off the NC machine and lay them out on individual virgin baby seal pelts that are burnt in a ceremony when the assembly is done. But we do already have Airsoft Surgeon for that. Link to post Share on other sites
Norotor Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 Is it too late to pre-order the fde one from bunny? I ask because someone on page 4 said it was no longer available, but I still see the option on the site. Link to post Share on other sites

I ask because someone on page 4 said it was no longer available, but I still see the option on the site. That was me that said that. They since brought it back, but can only order certain combinations. Before there was the option of barrel color, regular or tritium night sites and with or without the RMR. Now thinking of this, I wonder how they will handle my order because my combination is no longer an option in the drop down box. Link to post Share on other sites
JCheeseright Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 I expect they were only making a limited run of some of those parts and they've received enough pre orders that they've sold them all before even manufacturing them. Link to post Share on other sites
Norotor Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 The fde and the black version on crw just went back to being sold out, so I panicked and ordered from Boomarms haha. $29 express shipping. Link to post Share on other sites
Norotor Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 According to their Facebook page they switched from duracoat to Cerakote for the FDE. Hope they know how to apply it well. Also seems to have been pushed back to a "middle of November" release Link to post Share on other sites
