Sarge Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Wonder how many rounds you could load while waiting on one? Probably enough to shoot most of the season at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B767capt Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 I had contacted him last month and was told 16 weeks. Rick called me last night and it's on the way. Looks like things are moving now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Gaines Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 there is a delay on the 9mm/38super and 30-06 kits. rick is moving in the right direction though, he is getting some parts manufactured, that he used to make by hand. When he gets this manufacturing deal finalized, his production times will improve considerably. So for right now,you will see a delay in 9mm/38super units/conversions until then.

When he gets this manufacturing deal finalized, his production times will improve considerably. So for right now,you will see a delay in 9mm/38super units/conversions until then. Is he still backed up on 9mm? I ordered back in June 2011. Talked to Rick on the phone in August and found out about the supplier issue. Emailed him a couple of times in Sept/Oct timeframe and never got a response. Sort of figured something else was going on and gave up on trying to get one. Anybody know the current status?

Yes he is still backed up on the 9mm kits. He is working on getting a new manufacturer on some parts. When that gets worked out I was told it could be a few weeks or four months depending on how fast they can knock them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talked to Rick last week, I also am waiting on the 9/38. He said we is not sure when they will be ready. He said that a new CNC machine will be deleverd on Dec 20 to someone he was talking to and maybe it wont be to long after that. once he gets the parts he said he will get the orders out.

cfipilot Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I waited a little over 3 months for mine. But i love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slavex Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 so I just saw the DAA cataloge, are there going to be parts available, or full on feeders available from only DAA, or will we still be able to order them from Rick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nwsnowbum Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Is there any update on the availability of these in 9mm? I have a 1050 on the way and would love to add a bullet feeder. I emailed Rick a week or two ago, but I never heard anything back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueeyedme Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 I just ordered from Rick today and was told 16 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missfire Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Don't hold your breath on the 16 weeks, I ordered on 12-9-11 was told 6 weeks, still waiting, and very hard to get replies to emails. Kinda frustrating to say the least. After all this I hope it lives up to it's reputation...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nwsnowbum Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 I heard back from Rick last night, he'd been out of town on vacation. I got my name on the list. Now its just a hurry up and wait. As much as I'd love to have it yesterday, 16 weeks isn't so bad especially with no deposit. I've been on a couple of wait lists for over a year. Hell, I don't think I've ordered a stock had it come in in less than 16 weeks, and that usually requires a deposit or be paid in full up front!

sauza45 Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 (edited) Talked to Rick , I have been waiting on the 9 also. He said he has gotten a licence agreement with some body to help with manufacturing because he can not keep up. They are changing the design and should have them by mid MAY. He also said that new the ones will interchange parts with the old. The bullet dropper and hopper is diffrent. I will try to attach a picture he sent me.

That's interesting....should those of us waiting be concerned about being the test group for the new design? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure I like the idea of attaching the hopper to the plastic case feeder. That could get pretty heavy with just a few 100 bullets. The case feeder can have problems if it's not stablized. That is a known issue here on the forums. I'm going to have to do something soon. Loaded 500 rounds of 9mm last night and had to stop every 100 rounds due to my hand cramping up. Wish I had ordered the bullet feeder a long time ago, but wait I did Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Am I the only one who wonders why nobody else has developed a good bullet feeder? I'm not talking about the RCBS, Hornady, etc that all seem to be inferior in one way or another to the MBF. It seems that anything that takes months to get could use a few more players.

nwsnowbum Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 I looked at Hornady, RCBS, and GSI thinking I would avoid the Mr Bullet Feeder wait. I also thought about making my own, as others have done. It also looks like Budget Reloader has a coming soon page for a bullet feeder. Ultimately I decided I'd probably end up buying a Mr Bullet Feeder anyways and it didn't make sense to throw a lot of money at something I'd probably end up replacing. I think Rick will get caught up and get the wait times down again. And like everything, competition is always a good thing, and there is definitely room in the market place for another design...especially since Dillon says they will not produce one.
