30% off include the precious? Asking for a friend.
Any deals on Rimx/Vudoo barreled actions? Good with first party through them or any re-sellers with BF % off deals.
Keystone Accuracy had a Rimx Barrel sale. But Im not aware of any Rimx or voodoo action sales
Since the pre-order is just 50% down, anyone know if they'll take off the 20% when the final 50% is due?
For those needing new cases for your new rifles, gunzonedeals has some great prices on Pelican cases. I bought a tan Vault V800 for $139.xx shipped. The 1750 and IM3300 are $200.99 each, shipping was $8.95 for my Vault. I did get an email after saying shipping is delayed 10-14 days, but the price is worth the wait.

Silencer central is running a good deal on Monday. Free rimfire can with purchase of one of their center fire cans. I don’t have any banish nor do I plan on partaking in this sale, just thought I’d share. Please don’t message me telling me how banish sucks compared to TBAC or with links to the stupid threads we’ve had on banish suppressors.

Just a heads up mdt seems to be restocking things periodically. Looks like those cyke pods are back in stock.
I just snagged a skelatonized buttstock to go with the new chassisMDT I’m staying off your site it’s bad for my wallet....
Yes, as the sale goes on and things are moved around and counting errors are fixed we put them on the website.
We understand, it is something we will resolve for sure, but we are up and running now so there is no harm in looking right?
People do deserve that from us, it should've never happened and well the honest truth is it is a theme for us. But that is going to be a huge topic internally after the sale. For right now we are golden!
IT WAS YOU!!! All good, it kind of looks like we did a kind of stress for Adobe that they've never seen before.
I'll make a post here today, sorry been swamped!

Anyone thing BF this year is kinda... snooze? Just in general. Maybe I just don't need Chinese junk anymore?
Well considering many shops have had statements saying they can't keep up with demand at full prices, and ammo is selling 500% higher than it was a year ago there's very little motivation to offer great sales. Also aside for newer gun owners I think the last few years of Obama panic buying, and cheap Trump prices I know a lot of fellow shooters that have commented their safes and parts bins are overloaded. There's also the fact that considering Biden, sales are probably going to go through the roof soon. Obama was the best thing for gun/mag/ammo sales in a decade, I'm guessing Biden will be the same.
Interesting. I would think any major hosting service would know how many transactions per second a given server/storage/networking configuration could support, within predefined criteria, and MDT has a good feel for peak transaction count over time during the sale. The last few years of my career were spent doing that sort of work for a major storage manufacturer. As stress load (applied by made-for-purpose software which simulated users or server load) ramped up, the configuration's response time would increase almost (but not quite) linearly until it "hit the wall," at which point response time went vertical preceded by all sorts of flaky behavior on the front end - just like we experienced as the sale hit full stride.
So MDT needs to decide how much $$$$ it's worth to insure capacity for the one or two days a year when order load increases by orders of magnitude. Hopefully there is a hosting service that can analyze the MDT transaction footprint and provide that very temporary additional capacity at reasonable cost. And customers need to understand the economics of the situation from MDT's side, not just their own narrow interest.
Although these guys get mixed reviews, they do have some screaming Black Friday deals: https://www.ar500armor.com/?trk_msg...V+28,+2020+-+BLACK+FRIDAY+(Saturday)+Email+#1
i ordered in the vault800 from Cabela's with free shipping ($150) not knowing i would b going to cabela's yesterday. After seeing them in person and handling them, when mine gets here monday will b returning it. Very flimsy. I'll stick with the pelican series for a little more moneyFor those needing new cases for your new rifles, gunzonedeals has some great prices on Pelican cases.

This is actually what we do and we had tested to 3X the traffic of last year which caused the crash, and then went to 4X just to be safe. The testing looked great even at full load we had a load time of six seconds. The best part is when we contacted Adobe to get the issue sorted after we figured out it was on their side. They demanded more money to get our website back.
As an IT professional who has had responsibility over sites that we knew were going to take massive amounts of traffic in a short time similar to black Friday, your explanation is sound. Adobe is a top tier hosting provider but expensive and if they weren't throwing adequate resources at it, I'm not surprised they wanted more money. Fits what I've heard from peers and Gartner. I appreciate y'all working through it and offering the deals.

BigTex has DBAL D2 for $1160 of anyone is looking into IR illumination but can’t afford a MAWL: https://www.bigtexoutdoors.com/prod...al-beam-aiming-laser-with-ir-led-illuminator/
I was just sitting here with that Vault800 in my cart, about to hit the order button. How bad was it? Like you wouldn't trust a rifle in an airplane kind of cheap? I have seen overwhelmingly positive reviews on these. This may just be a good example of we get what we pay for.
I realize the Apache 9800 isn't a Pelican case but mine have been thrown around and traveled considerably and have held up great. They are $99.00 at Harbor Freight right now. Same price for black or tan.
@MDT_OFFICIAL I already received a UPS Tracking number for my order...which I assume is pre-shipment...I'm willing to wait for mine...since I don't need them this instance.....to save some folks from the likes of last year...when they thought they could get a smoking deal and then delivery within a day or two.
I thank you guys for what you do....your ACC has put trophies on my wall.

This video shows the differences. Just skip to 2:48 and then to12:29 for IM3300. Shows the Vault lid flex and kneels on both. Mine will only be in the car to and from the range, so I liked the bigger interior size. I don't think I'd use it to fly, especially with an expensive scope in it.
Video is an excellent view of the differences. I've had all 3 - Protector, Storm, Vault cases. Vault is worth the money but not as strong as the other two and not priced as high - pretty sure they use the word "affordable" in marketing. It is still stronger than the average case imo. I like the large v800 vault for local use as I can get two scoped rifles in it and I'm not going to be tossing it like TSA. Flying, I use the 1700 series protector Pelican. The BF deals on the vault are a good deal imo.

Yes, we will be looking at new options for sure.
Awesome, yes, UPS is picking up skids from us so we pack a skid, load it up and UPS comes and gets it so there might be some delays in updates on the tracking number. Plus our US warehouse is in a small town in Washington and they won't pick up on Saturday.
