    Arsenal Molds

    I was wondering what the turnaround time has been for those of you who have recently purchased an Arsenal mold. I am looking for a time frame from payment to door step. The website didn't provide an expected turnaround time..........maybe I missed it though.


    Thanks

    I was asking others here of their experiences and also was hoping each would chime in possibly on the workmanship too. Yes I could ask the company however I very much value our forum member's opinions and experiences.

    They have been pretty quick for my orders. I have 2 and ordered 3 more last week. I like using them. I like Accurate molds also.

    I got Arsenal's 359-125-2R clone several months ago. The quality is excellent and the service was fast. You might contact them to see if they have what you want in stock before you order.

    Jared is a good guy to work with. I've purchased a couple Arsenal molds from him and delivery was quite prompt for both. The first had to be made up for my order...I wanted a plain-base and all he had on hand in that pattern were GCs...and took about 10 days/2 weeks; the second was from on-hand stock and took less than a week.

    Quality is excellent! Arsenal's 4-cavity 359-162 WFN is just about the only mold I cast for .38/.357 these days.

    I may have been lucky in that none over two weeks. All mine have been outstanding. presistion made and bullets drop well best I have used (most accurate). easy to deal with and pricing reasonable.

    I got a 225-61 Elvis mold that shipped quickly to Canada, then was held by customs for a time. No fault of Arsenal. It was worth letting Customs drool over it. Beautiful mold that drops great projectiles!

    It's posts like this that make me thankful to live in Utah. Arsenal and NOE are a 40 minute drive, and Accurate is in Salt Lake. (no pickup address, but shipping only takes a day or so)

    Ferguson, No need to squeeze Jared will cut it to whatever diameter you want.

    Well Crud! I was just going to see what they had and bought one. $88 shipped for an aluminum 5 cavity. It's been 2 years since I bought a mold and I couldn't say no. Don't have a working pot or sizer yet. LOL

    So it's been 10 days and my new mold is here. It Looks Great!

    Now if RCBS can get it together I'll cast a few. I'm waiting on the Pro Melt 2 and parts for my old Pro Melt.
