Boot_Scraper Posted January 28, 2019 Report Posted January 28, 2019 (edited) I once read a quote that said something like "...a real man owns at least one rifle, .35 or bigger..." Here's your chance to be a real man. Specs can be found here: MDWS 358 Yeti These kits will be for 16" barrels in graphite black Cerakote, bolts, and dies. They should be available at the beginning March. There is strength in numbers and the more we gang up on these, the better deal we can get. Looking for at least 10. The main purpose of this thread is to find out how many would seriously be in on the group buy. Thanks fellas. I'll edit this list as it goes. Here's who's in so far(updated 1/31/19): @dpete @98Z5V @Boot_Scraper Edited February 1, 2019 by Boot_Scraper

I've got my fingers crossed that my 45-70 counts... I'd down, as the #1 committed guy. Barrels, bolts, reloading dies, I'm in. Drop one of those, I'm out. Everything to make it run - or nothing.
dpete Posted January 30, 2019 Report Posted January 30, 2019 ^^This^^. I'm in as long as its everything needed to build and feed the Yeti>
Boot_Scraper Posted February 1, 2019 Author Report Posted February 1, 2019 C'mon fellas, do it for the children.
Armed Eye Doc Posted February 5, 2019 Report Posted February 5, 2019 I'm trying to do some cross platform enabling. I put it out there for a guy on the full30 forum who asked about different calibers for ARs.

Boot_Scraper Posted February 6, 2019 Author Report Posted February 6, 2019 Talk to MDWS today. Kits with dies are normally $539.99. Group buy gets us 10% off, puts each kit, with dies, at $485.99.
98Z5V Posted February 7, 2019 Report Posted February 7, 2019 Sounds great! What's the minimum we number of kits we need to get it rolling?
Boot_Scraper Posted February 7, 2019 Author Report Posted February 7, 2019 Never told me a minimum. He just asked if I thought I could get 10. Might be a long shot.
98Z5V Posted February 7, 2019 Report Posted February 7, 2019 I know we got 3 - me, you and @dpete. That's a good start.
Boot_Scraper Posted February 23, 2019 Author Report Posted February 23, 2019 Step right up folks. Should have have kits at the end of March to mid April. I'll just leave this here:
NTXshooter Posted February 23, 2019 Report Posted February 23, 2019 Do you have a ballpark on cost? Might have to sweet talk the wife.

It ain't cheap or practical, but for some reason I gotta have one. My first rifle was a 35 Remington and I love the AR platform. This would be the love child of the 2. Smoke em if you got em!

Wash https://nationalinterest.org/blog/buzz/why-ar-500-might-just-be-most-dangerous-rifle-planet-45617 That is a pistol in the picture from the article. Don't see that doing anything my Beowulf can't do.
98Z5V Posted February 27, 2019 Report Posted February 27, 2019 Someone had to make a 308-sized platform to shoot a round that's gonna fit in a 5.56 mag, because they had bolt-face diameter issues and couldn't make it work any other way. That's a compromise on a compromise, right there. I'll take the 500 Blackout...
shooterrex Posted February 27, 2019 Report Posted February 27, 2019 The 500 blackout looks interesting . Don't think I need one. But then again need rarely has anything to do with my firearms purchases.
washguy Posted March 1, 2019 Report Posted March 1, 2019 Im waitin till the .700 come out myself Wash
Boot_Scraper Posted March 11, 2019 Author Report Posted March 11, 2019 Looking like parts won't be available now till May.
Boot_Scraper Posted April 16, 2019 Author Report Posted April 16, 2019 Gettin closer fellas...kits should be available in the next 2-3 weeks. YOU KNOW YOU WANNA!!
Boot_Scraper Posted May 23, 2019 Author Report Posted May 23, 2019 Kits are right around the corner. Three boneheads ain't much of a group so it ain't gonna be much of a group buy, however we still may be able to get a discount. 🤞
Boot_Scraper Posted May 23, 2019 Author Report Posted May 23, 2019 Btw, I got a spare dust cover if anyone is interested.
