Bump. Also Redneckenginer, can you give us an update on both your health and the project?
"Rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated."
- Mark Twain
My household was very fortunate; we recovered after about three weeks of various general misery.
Project updates:
-I have several RFQs out for larger scale production of all the associated parts.
-The revised M10 model is currently in the stage of R&D wherein I beat the living crap out of it and see what breaks first. So far, it has held up better than expected.
-The recent decisions by the ATF to issue a negative determination on the Tenko confirmed my decision to add a couple of denial features back to the Ultimac design. (I am appalled at the reports of the lack of integrity shown in their testing methodology and can only imagine how angry and disappointed A&S must be. I wish A&S the best in their redesign and I hope they are successful.)
-The ammo situation is a big limiting factor. I have a decent stockpile but it has to be replenished. R&D is no fun when the ammo is worth more than the transferable machinegun I'm shooting it out of.

The largest delay/s in the project is funding. I am paying for everything myself and I can guarantee you that it has not been cheap. This is not a complaint or a solicitation of funds, merely transparency for those who grow impatient.
I hope everyone is having a great new year, even in spite of the newly elected weirdos in Washington DC.
