No sure you'll sell too many at that price but good luck anyway.

They'll have to come down from that. I'd happily buy decently made local mags at a slight premium over importing to avoid the permits, shipping, etc

dont forget the 1-2 week shipping time, (as per there site)

rather buy spear mags, if i had to....

for now ill stick to importing

I would be prepared to buy quality locally made mags at $40 a pop. At this point in time it isn't worth spending $90+ on a mag when you can get an import permit for a 10 pack of Brownells GI mags.

I don't think that's going to be a permanent price. The website has only been up a day or 2

We'll catch up to US prices, here's hoping

I want your AR.

$95 for 1? jesus...

I just bought a 7rnd Spear price wasnt so bad $55NZ especially now the NZD has dropped so much

Ran some rounds through this today through a JP rifle with no fit or function issues.

The headshot hostages might beg to differ😆

I will be interested in a couple of those mags if you can sort it.

Enjoyed today. It was a good afternoon burning powder.

They're dreaming at that price, I'll stick with Magpul thanks.
Think a better marketing approach would have been to come in at a realistic price to start with to generate a good local rapport and support.
I think what DPT did to the suppressor market in NZ is a good example, kept everyone honest and kept it real.

You mean the dumbest business tactic ever?? The "I'm going to make less money than all of my competitors" approach?? Undercut everyone else and start a race to the bottom, piss off all your competitors and shoot yourself in the foot at the same time??
Making quality product costs money. NZ is a small market. Unless the guy is doing it for fun, then the setup and manufacturing costs have to be met somehow, otherwise they are toast before they even get going.
