I emailed dan yesterday about some parts, and asked if the kits shipped yet. He said the kits are all packed up and ready to go. They should ship by monday for sure (as soon as the check clears) he just got the check and invoices Wed. Now to just wait for the confused ups man to arrive.

Woo Hoo i can't wait

Just finished all your kits, they go to UPS tomorrow morning. Please do not email me for tracking numbers, I can't possibly reply to everyone, besides my wife is out of town for a week leaving me with two teenage daughters to keep an eye on (they are GREAT kids, really).
I am offering a 100% money back guarentee on the kits, If any of you are not satisfied, let me know within three (3) days of receiving your kit and I'll take it back (I have 30+ standing orders I can't fill, so no problem). I will replace any broken part due to shipping, free of charge. I cannot replace parts due to percent of finish though. I included as many new parts in your kits as I had in stock as I was building them, but I know I can't please everyone 100%. These kits are a very good deal considering how much Century and others want, without the receiver!
Good luck on your builds, you all should purchase John Baum's post war manual, it will help a lot with assembly, especially if you are not familar with the weapon.

Just unpacked mine and am super satisfied. Looks GREAT. I'm in Maryland, so this should give you an idea what to expect on shipping times....Mike

Hey None 123, good looking floors you have there. Your parts kit looks a lot like mine. Am I to understand that about 1/4" of metal was displaced in the de-mill process? TIA, Mike

Just got my kit (in FL). Great looking kit! Can't wait to get started on it!!!!

Only thing though, the barrel that came with it doesn't look very good. Looks pretty smooth right after the chamber... How's everyone elses barrels looking?

I'll have pics up in a bit..

Edit: Forgot to mention, I LOVE the bumper sticker Dan sent too!! That's going on my truck for sure. :P

My kits came in and look great. There just wasn't any bipods in the two boxes. Dan what do you mean when you said they are covered seperately? I believe that is what the note read.

Dan@AngolaArmory · Post by **Dan@AngolaArmory** » Mon Aug 15, 2005 8:34 pm

I was short a few bipods, they came too late to include with the kits, I sent them out via USPS, those of you that did not receive bipods with your kits should receive them shortly.

Sounds good...I will be looking forward to receiving the bipods.

Thanks,

My parts kit arrived yesterday I can sum it up in one word - NICE -.

I did notice that the barrel change latch was really corroded and the large attaching screw was almost destroyed. The corrosion is really fine grain and appears to be the result of a corrosive base or oxidizer material other than moisture. Most likely a corrosive salt. Its older than the rest of the parts.

Angola Dan is there anyway I can get/buy new ones?

Thanks for the group buy effort you did good work!

Thanks

Michael Spivey

Edited: I e-mailed Angola Armory.

I got my kit on Monday, It is very nice. It will take a while to inventory all the parts but it looks like it is all there. A big thanks to Dan at Angola Armory. We will be doing more business together in the future.
