They took a picture from a recent post. If memory serves it said something about copying.
Well, this specific part of the community is moving onward/upward with you. I wouldn't touch "Vudoo" with somebody else's 10-foot pole anymore.
Supposedly they don’t own the patent on the action. Not exactly sure what that means for them moving forward.
Actually, I assigned the two issued patents to the company, but I'm the noted inventor. But, the patents have zero value as assets to the company and they'er no longer valid since Three Sigma manufactured around them shortly into Gen 2 production.

As a direct competitor to VGW, MPA is using them, but I can't speak to whether they're sold direct to MPA or not. But, without VGW in the picture, I could easily see Three Sigma continuing to make and sell VGW actions to whoever would buy them.

Been waiting a long time for this vudoo 360 barreled action!!
Two quick ones Mike.
I don't recall mention of the bolt tool in the recent posts. I wouldn't want to be without mine.
And thanks for choosing to go forward with Insite in Canada.
You mentioned that you are running a one man show ... any chance your youngest was truant all last week?
Thanks Mike

Hey, Dude, you'll have to jog my memory on "bolt tool." Do you mean for disassembly for Gen 1 and 1.2?
He was legally truant for Spring break but I think that might've been the week before....it's all been such a flash.
MB
Yeah, that was after me. Looks like it's meant to cam the bolt shroud off to disassemble the post Gen 1 bolts.

There's a joke in there somewhere....I just know it.
At some point, maybe, but one of the things I've enjoyed most over the years is interfacing with the community that, as long as I'm paying attention, has been what has driven the direction things have gone.
MB
Yeah, I'll need one of those if you make them. I'm an "old creaker" too. I've never taken the bolt apart on my Gen One.
Gotcha. The Gen 1 bolt shroud is threaded and Gens 2 and 3 are cam lock. To disassemble Gen 1, there's a different tool.

I would have like to have read some. I am a voyeur at heart.
Mornin, Fellas,
The data entry is going well to get everyone plugged into my bookkeeping software and as I've read every email, it's funny that all three people still using AOL have emailed me.
As one can imagine, I've sifted through a lot of information in your emails, but I don't have all the info I need to discern who has what generation of action. So, DON'T do anything right now, but what can be expected next is an email from me (mass email style), where I'll simply ask, "What generation action do you have?" If you know the answer to this, simply reply with "Gen X" in the subject line. If you have a single shot, simply put "V22S". In the body of the email, please provide your full name, address and phone number. Please do not write anything else, anywhere else.
For those of you that do not know what generation you have, please see the pictures below. The easiest way to tell is by the bolt release, and for the Gen 1 and Gen 1.2, the cocking piece and bolt shroud are different.
Once I have the info, I'll organize a few details and keep moving forward. Also, when appropriate, I'll be accepting payments using the CASH App, which keeps me off the phone and provides some small level of "automation" for the process.
Gen 1
Gen 1.2
Gen 2, 22LR and Magnums
Gen 3, Three60 and V22S Single Shot
Onward and upward....

See edited post 11,429 ^^^^, to see pictures that will help you with what generation V-22 action you have.

Wasn’t there two versions of the gen3 with slightly different bolt stops/releases? I had an early one I kept breaking them and they machined my early one to take the later wider one…
If anyone is interested in the 3D Part file for this Gen 3 tool, send me a PM. I made it a combo tool with a mag loader.
Yessir, there was a bolt release revision for the stop surface, but looking at the two releases from the outside, one can't tell a difference. I'll be making the revised Gen 3 release.

Yessir, CCs down the road, but processing them requires a lot of my time/attention that I'd rather use to ship parts and design new stuff. The CASH App is very fast and one's CC, Debit Card, Bank Account is linked to it and it's secure.
When I email the invoice for parts, my "Cash Tag" and QR code will be on it. Just type my cash tag into the app or scan the QR, enter the amount and hit send. I'll get a notification on my phone that one paid, and I can keep chugging away packing and shipping parts.
Think DOJE level efficiency....
