Hello, everyone!
We apologize for the delay in updating the status of Amendment Arms Inc. and of the Joshua Mk5. Here is the latest news:
Shipping Dates
As you may know, we desired and expected to be able to ship the Mk5 by March 31, 2013.Unfortunately, the gun
panic continues to run its course. This has
caused many delays. What delays?
(1) Barrels are in short supply. Larger manufacturers are cornering production
time from barrel makers. We can get the blanks we need, but not in quantity or
in a speedy manner. Naturally, everyone
is in the same boat. There’s not much we
can do except place our orders and wait the month or two it takes for barrels
and blanks to arrive.
(2) Quad Rails. Believe
it or not, our original aluminum extrusions supplier bowed out, claiming “liability”
issues, meaning fear of the government.
We have since found several extruders who are more than willing, and we will choose one within the week. After we do this, it will be 5-8 weeks before
delivery.
As such, our new date for first shipment must be moved to
late May-early June.
If you have paid full price, and your delivery date comes
due before that time, please contact us by email to let us know if you will be willing
to wait, and for how long. Otherwise, we
are on schedule. Please note that this
affects only those who paid full price, not layaway customers, per the
contract.
Unveiling
We hope to show a rough version of the Mk5 in mid-to-late April. We had been thinking and saying March, but we are revising some technical
aspects while we wait for barrels and quad rails.
Premium Barrels
As you may know, we are offering our
customers the opportunity to upgrade their Mk5 barrels. These will be provided by a top name barrel
maker (likely Walther), in 5.56, the same caliber as our standard barrel.
This does not mean
that our barrels are going to be bad barrels.
There is a scale between 0 and 10, after all.
Improvements include Swiss steel, a bit more accuracy (specs
not yet known), and the advantage of having a name brand barrel for a very
reasonable price (purchasing power).
We are still getting all the details, including absolute
shipping time and extra cost. We will
let you know by email and website post as soon as all is ready.
Magazines
The gun run evaporated our cheap supply of magazines. We are now seeking a deal in order to provide
our customers a 30-round magazine for each Joshua purchased (except in states
not permitted).
Please contact Tom Wise at 828-676-0225 if you are a manufacturer or wholesaler interested in partnering with Amendment Arms.
Importing
We are registering with ATF to
import parts kits and weapons.
Please contact Tom Wise at 828-676-0225 if you have you have
contacts in, or can speak the language of, any country where AK-47 and/or AK-74
weapons or parts kits may be found. This
includes Romania, Bulgaria, and other European, African, and Asian nations.
Reward for success!
Principles
In case you don’t know, Amendment Arms Inc. will not sell our weaponry to any
government which in our opinion subjects its citizens to terror tactics or
straight fascism. By not striking down
certain provisions of the NDAA, and by reauthorizing and authorizing more
spying on the American people, and by legislating or attempting to legislate
redistribution of wealth and other Marxist ideals, we at Amendment Arms have
decided that the current federal administration is so categorized and not to be trusted. We will not sell to this federal government.
We also will not sell our weaponry to any government which
permits its police to carry a weapon which a regular citizen, properly trained,
cannot. We therefore will not sell to
New York State police or other authorities.
