    Yeah mine is too. Brownells moved places. You might be right they may be getting back on top of things. Noticed they started replying to other questions of mine today

    What do you think of the mount for repeatability, quality & longevity wise?
    Well, I just got it yesterday and separate the thing to storage, so in a hour I am going back to fire few more shots as the break in carry on. Regards the product, very light and sometimes I think looks quiet fragile but I don't have experience yet wih this type of equipment.
    Please drop me a message in 2 weeks time and I will give you an update.

    Good luck with your order in US, hope you been a good boy and Santa will bring you a lovely surprise.

    When asked about the Seekins gas block, Brownells told me Seekins weren't a registered exporter so it couldn't be shipped. I've seen them for sale on TM, so things might have changed.

    Having seen some pictures of the gas port in the barrel being worn by gas I wonder if anyone has looked at an adjustable unit to see how it wears? I'd assume it does as its acting as a restriction to the gas path and hence is going to be eroded?

    So the order for the Colt M4 carbine fell through this morning so Ive ordered the Stag Model 4, Cat A, AIL stock, with a Bushnell TRS32 red dot to go with it. The TRS will do for now, I'll look for a better red dot if I like them, this should be good enough to play with for a bit.

    Xmas sorted.



    Now to get to Kaitoke range without the wife noticing I am missing for the day.



    Anyone know if the road works at Kaitoke is finished with yet?

    Awesome @steven, I am sorry to hear your order didn't happen but I am sure Jim will look after you from now on.
    All the best and have a great time.
    I just threaded my rifle this morning and now I am off to a wallaby hunt.
    Happy Xmas!

    They were still busy early this week, but if you speak to them nicely and don't mind waiting a bit you can get through.
