Anyone have one?  I understand Greg is making a batch. Price is a bit steep at something like $85 shipped. I like the ability to use AR-15 grips. But I wonder if his single stage design could be better than the two stage PRod trigger.  It's tempting because it's something different and there really are some nice ar-15 grips out there...but does that justify the cost?  Cuz on the other hand, for $85 + the cost of the grip, you could have someone make you some pretty nice custom wood for a Crosman frame.

I bought a barrel band from him and it shipped in a reasonable amount of time but was missing the solid pin. Contacted him and he said he would ship one out for me that has been over 3 weeks now.

Not worth  the hassle. I purchased one sometime back and it took over 3 months plus tracking him down and writing him up on the forums before getting it. Same old story, "it's on it's way", I'll ship another", bla bla bla. Save your money and your patience.

If it is all going through HPA Sports there shouldn't be a problem this time though  :-* :-*

It would be cool if HPA Sports did carry them.  Joe's a great guy to work with. He's got the customer service thing down.  Greg just posted on the green that he would have some available soon.  I think for a little more money I'd rather get a BNM breech.

I got one around the same time and went thru much the same hassle. It took close to 8 months for it to materialize.

The trigger/sear is much the same as the 1377 and 2240.
The feature that set it apart for me and made the wait bearable was the ability to use Hogue grips or with an after market adaptor the 1911 grip choice is endless.

that is a nice feature
his reputation is pretty much mud around the forums
hopefully he cleaned up his act

Yeah that's really what was catching my interest...the grip possibilities.  Google "Ar-15 grips", select Images and look at all the choices!!

From his site... " have discontinued every thing I make but the 13XX barrell bands. I will still be offering those for sale. I will be shipping the remaining orders in the next couple of weeks or I will be issuing a refund."

Huh? Never even heard of this guy... who-what-where and now,  it seems... why?  :D

Hee Hee, just ordered two frames via HPA.

I went for self Color so they can be polished up on my SS guns  :-*

Joe had the two in stock so there will be no issues on that score for me.
