A quick update:
The V-Series, DDG V2210, 10 round magazine is in Phase 2 of prototyping and validation.
Once it's through Phase 2, it's eligible for pre-order (if I elect to do one based on level of interest) and officially in production phase, starting with an LRIP, aka, Low-Rate Initial Production.
The LRIP is when I could be looking for a few testers, but typically the testers aren't necessary, but I've not had a shortage of folks eagerly reaching out to help. Following the LRIP for the V2210, it goes to full scale production and prototyping will begin for the V2212, V2215 and tentatively, the V2217.
This process has and will continue to systematically unfold the same way with the DDG X-Series Magazines (RimX compatible) in the same capacities (X2210, X2212, X2215, and tentatively, X2217).
The X-Series magazine will be aesthetically and feature-set identical to the V-Series but with the obvious RimX style feed tower and no need for an extension to increase capacity.
The Adjustable Catch Block in the V-Series and X-Series Magazines is adjusted while the magazine is inserted and there will be a published process that guides one through proper adjustment.
The DDG Standard M5 and M5x DBMs are through Phase 1 prototyping and proceeding to Phase 2 when the V2210 goes to LRIP phase. The DBMs will also be eligible for pre-order when they go to LRIP, if I elect to accept pre-orders. Again, pre-orders are interest driven.
I've held off putting the DDG Test Fixture into the LRIP phase due to the seemingly lower-level interest, which I believe to be associated with the industry slow season (June, July, August). If one is interested in a Test Fixture, shoot me an email at [email protected] and I'll add you to that database, which is what I use to gauge interest and create priorities.
For those that haven't received their Receiver Wrench yet, yours will ship by Thursday this week. There were a few back-to-back unforeseen delays, but those things are now in check and that project is running very smoothly. I appreciate everyone's patience while I dealt with getting them back on track.
The Comprehensive Parts Kits are still rocking along, and as I've stated in the recent past, this project is a huge lift, but it's running well and gets the required daily attention.
If anyone has any questions or needs anything, I'm easily found in this thread, my FB group and/or email and generally respond very quickly. If you don't see a response very quickly, just know I'm either in SolidWorks or working with a vendor and will get back to you asap.

Looks like the tide is turning and we may finally be allowed to be honest about Ukraine's issues with corruption and authoritarianism:
