Has anybody actually seen a new mold from these guys. I have had one on order for a few months now.

[Jim]

Front page says 10 to 14 days shipping time. Have you already paid for it? If so, It's about time to make some phone calls.

[DragoonDrake]

I have been emailing and I believe Brad keeps telling me that they are turning over to new tooling. I was just curious if others are being told the same thing. I don't mind waiting, I just want to verify the facts.

[Jim]

Hey, at least he's communicating with you!

[DragoonDrake]

I was never angry. Just worried. I am also the most impatient person that I have ever met.

Talk to MikeS on here. He got a mold for review from the guy.
I don't think it was too impressive a situation, but that might of changed.
I hope you didn't get rooked

[MikeS]

I've been meaning to email Brad to see how he's doing on his retooling. I had been in an email exchange of messages with him for a while, then he just stopped writing, so I don't know what's going on. I don't really want to comment on the mould of his that I have here, as he's told me it's a reject mould that accidentally got shipped to me, instead of a good one. I will say to stay far away from the moulds he sells on eBay, as he told me he sells his 'seconds' on eBay, and in fact that's where the mould I got was supposed to go

[MikeS]

It's amazing, I haven't heard from Brad in quite a while, and just now when I checked my email I see he had emailed me BEFORE I posted the above post! He had a computer virus, and lost all the info on his computer. He got my email address from the forum (so I assume that means he's already a member), and emailed me to let me know that they've finished their retooling as per my suggestions, and he has a new mould ready to send out to me, but he didn't have my address anymore, so I sent it to him again. So now we will see what I get in the mail this time!

Thumbs up to Brad for being a stand-up guy!

Mike, Keep me posted if you would. I'm curious how it turns out.

[Max Brand]

I see that they donate $5 from each purchase to Shriner's Hospitals for Children and being a Shriner myself that act speaks volumes for them. I'll be contacting Brad for some moulds in the near future and post a review.

Mike,

That is the same thing he told me. I just can't wait for the ones I ordered. I will post a full write-up and review once they come in and I get a chance to use them.

I just hope you're not dissapointed and hopefully haven't wasted your money.
Just been alot of flags thrown up, over the course of several months, since they came on the scene.
Selling his "seconds" on ebay, having to retool, and no one on here has a workable mold, let alone is there any truely good feedback on his molds, just throws flags up all over for me.

Plus I cant get anything on feedback on them when I tried googling it.

I have a couple on order and am also getting a bit concerned.

I too would be worried. A prominent seller here has the exact same issues yet is defended on the forum.He had my money for months (when promised a two-three week wait) while selling and delivering the same item on IEbay. Even tough mine was prepaid and not received!!The same computer/machinery crash excuses as well.Its a standard "i got you money" stall pattern.


NOE and Accurate and LBT are good as they get for customs with long track record.

Well, my mould is in the hands of the USPS, and they say I'll have it on Saturday. I probably won't get a chance to look at it until late Sunday, or Monday, as on Saturday I'm going in for hand surgery on my left hand, and Sunday I'll be shooting in a match in the morning/afternoon. As soon as I get it opened up I'll post an initial impression, and follow it up with a report after casting. Of course all of this depends on my hand surgery going well! I had the same surgery (a release of a 'trigger' finger) on 2 of the fingers on my right hand about 2 months ago, and I was able to heal completely within a month, and was mostly usable within a week. This time I'm only getting one finger operated on, so I'm hoping to be back in action within a week.

[DragoonDrake]

I hope the surgery goes well. Usps shows I should be getting my molds today. We will see. I am working a double tonight so I should be able to post picks and a review tomorrow.

I bought one of his molds on ebay. He didn't sell it. It wasn't advertised as a second but had a couple of bad flaws. I would stay away from the ebay molds. I didn't post before because I didn't want to flame someone and not know all of the facts.

[Moonie]

No updates on this? Some of us are very curious.

I am also waiting for a mould from the fellow. He did send me a "pre-production" mold. It was the 245498, his round nosed version, which makes more sense than the semi-spitzer Lyman version. The nose on bullets from the pre-production mould cast small, like .235", whereas most modern 6mm barrels have a .237" or larger bore diameter. He said he was going to cut a new cherry, and maybe someday I'll get another mold. Lost his computer? That's bad news, best get an address change to him. I think he is whole heartedly into getting things up and running, but it is taking an inordinate amount of time. I've been waiting several months now.
