Has anyone here sent off their new Seekins WSM DBM to McMillan to get a program written for the inlet? I thought I had read a post somewhere that someone had. If not, I guess I'll be the one to spend $51.

Re: Seekins WSM DBM/McMillan

Last I spoke to Ryan over at MCM they had not received the WSM DBM sample from Glen, so I just had them inlet for the regular DBM and Ill do the mod to make the WSM DBM fit when it comes. Glen said they are pretty close to eachother anyway.

Glen,

I called today and McMillan said they didn't have it on file (the lady i talked to), and I needed to send one in for a program to be written.

Tell me what I need to do.

It's either $51 to McMillan, or $75 to Jon Beanland to do it when he builds my rifle.

$51 plus shipping? have Beanland do it when he does the build! Im sure he will do a fine job.
 
Re: Seekins WSM DBM/McMillan

Glen if they have it and not even know, Im going to be pissed! I had them inlet for your .308 dbm because they said they didnt have it. But they still have my stock, so maybe I can have them redo it.
 
Re: Seekins WSM DBM/McMillan

Christmas and the first of the year realy suck for UPS. Its hard to say where its at.

the 308 inlet is very very very very very very very

close so dont sweat it. Just a little needs to be moved rearward and forward. not a issue for anyone competent enough to shoot a gun let alone build one..
 
Re: Seekins WSM DBM/McMillan

Ill be doing the mod myself with a Dremel (AKA hand mill) once the stock comes in. Im more than competent to do it, its just that I really dont want to be covered in anymore fiberglass than I have to. I hate taking cold showers to get that shit out of my skin.
 
Re: Seekins WSM DBM/McMillan

Ummmm LOL, a whole lot of bugging?

trust me when I say it was worth the wait. I measured the internal oal of the mag at 3.175" on mine

Re: Seekins WSM DBM/McMillan

DJA, we tried contacting everyone to see who wanted 3rd mags and not wait for the 5rd. We have some issues with the 5rd mags. Give me a call Monday and i can get you sorted out.

usmcj got to experiance the almost ready, not ready, shipping tomarow, crap found another issue, almost ready and finaly....a tracking number.

Product development goes that way sometimes....

Me too.
 
Re: Seekins WSM DBM/McMillan

Glen, I ordered one of your WSM DBMs a little over a month ago with extra mag. I don't think it specified 3rd or 5rd mags on the order forms, but if my order included 5rd mags and you are saying it would take less time to get the system with 3rd mags, then I might want to change my order to a single 3rd mag and then just wait until the 5rd ones are available to order extra mags.

I will probably order a set of rings as well if the dbm system will be in the mail soon.

You guys arent the only ones. cant wait to be done with that one!

Give us a call Monday if you need to work over your order. I try not to do much with posts/pms/ so i dont make more confusion.
 
Re: Seekins WSM DBM/McMillan

Glen I hate to bug you online, but can you check on those 3 rails I need for those pheonix actions. They are full round with remington short action spacing. Last we spoke you were going to run me some and send them to me because of the annodizer problems. I called twice last week. BTW my credit card on file is no longer viable. LOst my wallet this week and had to cancel that card. I do not see a need to call and give you a new one until the bases are ready. Please have someone call when they are ready to ship.
 
Re: Seekins WSM DBM/McMillan

Glen did chris mathews ever get in touch with you about my WSM bottom metal? I told him the 3 rounder would be fine to get started with but he nedded to contact you. Just saw this thread and thought this might be easier than bothering you on the phone; again.

So I guess it's still not close to being done huh?
 
Re: Seekins WSM DBM/McMillan

Rad, Chris has everything he has asked for.

Not done yet. I cannot spend all of my time to one item and its not exactly cheap to do the development. Right now i am waiting for some spring engineering done. It takes time and they will be done when they are perfect.

Did you mean to say "until" they are perfect?

Either way, Im not in that big of a hurry, its not holdimg me back or anything at this point. I just hope it wont take another 6 months for them to be done is all.
