Magpul will sell mags directly to Colorado residents.....get in before the ban.

Colorado Airlift: http://www.magpul.com/colorado

 

What a great company. Will be sad to see them leave....think I may just pack up and go also.

Kolorado, the new Kalifornia.

It's kind of an ok idea on the part of Magpul but what about the rest of the Country that is facing the possibility of a national ban? Highly unlikely but you never know anymore this country is going.

 

People have had PMags on backorder since December and are still waiting. For MagPul to say how far they are behind on production then offer only 1 state magazines is kind of BS. There is more than one state under attack. MagPul may lose some customers over this. There are several forums that have many, many unhappy customers since this announcement.

 

 

 

EDIT :

 

Just read the bill that has been passed in the House already and will go to the Senate on Monday. Possession of a magazine with higher than a 15 round capacity will become illegal, and 8 rounds for a shotgun. The people buying these magazines will "not be allowed to keep them" according to this law.

MagPul has also stated they will leave the state if it gets signed into law......HOPEFULLY this bill will fail, they only need 3 Democrats to vote it down and only 2 have come out and said they will not support it.

I grew up in Colorado and planned on moving back one day when I am done with school, but the way the state is going my desire to move back there is dropping very very quickly. Sad really because there is so much I love about the state.

I hear that Beretta is talking about pulling out of Maryland as well. Remington may end up leaving New York. I think it is great that these companies are willing to leave the places they've been established in for decades, or in the case of Remington, almost 200 years. When the lawmakers are looking to ban--or have banned--your products, why continue giving them your tax dollars? There are plenty of gun friendly states down south and other places.

I hope Magpul leaves Colorado and takes those 6-800 jobs with them. Nothing will wreck the re-election chances for these morons than a bunch of unemployed, angry voters.

We should know for sure at the end of the day. They were scheduled to vote on that bill in the Senate today. HOPEFULLY it gets shot down.

I support Magpul pulling out of that State 100% if this bill somehow passes.

Seven different bills and most, if not all will probably pass.

A lot of pissed off people here. With the next elections I hope we can remove most of the democraps.

I may be moving back to my home state of Montana.

LEO and Mil can place a 1time order directly through Magpul. My order had about a week and a half turn around.

 

 

Did you pay regular PMag price OR did yo uhave to pay "panic price" when you ordered?

Magpul itself has no "panic" prices.

All the "Colorado Airlift" magazines I just received were the normal retail prices.

Just received a new shipment from Magpul Industries today....Box of 100 PMAG MOE standard (30rd.) magazines, black.

The label from Magpul Industries in dated 2/4/2013 (so they have had them stocked for quite some time, makes you wonder if they are holding out on people).

Ordered by phone on 3/8/2013 and received today, 3/13.

Ordered from Magpul directly over the phone through their LE program. Sorry, can't post the price I am given. Ordered a case of Pmags using my discount.

 

If you want to know any specifics, shoot me a PM.

      2010 Avalanche 5.3 not running correctly after engine swap.

      By Jsdirt · Posted

      If everything checks out at the MAF, then the MAF is BAD, new or not.   You don't need a signal generator to troubleshoot this. PCM needs ALL powers and ALL grounds able to light a halogen headlight bulb - if it can light the bulb bright, then the wiring is good enough to run the PCM.   Best thing you can do for yourself is spend some time here: scannerdanner.com - Check out all his YouTube videos on similar issues. If you decide to subscribe it's the best bang-for-buck ratio in the automotive world, hands-down. He's got TONS of free vids on YouTube, too.

      2010 Avalanche 5.3 not running correctly after engine swap.

      Yes, I used my multimeter to probe all of the wires at the MAF, both with the sensor connected, sensor disconnected, key on engine off, key on engine running, etc etc etc. I probed all of the wires again at the PCM, at the connectors, etc. All voltages are what they should be according to the service manual/wiring diagrams. All grounds are good, less than 20 millivolts from the battery negative under load. Both at the connector of the MAF, at the PCM connector etc.      I know this throws a pretty big wrench into things, but this truck was acting up before the swap. I don't have very much information, if any on what was causing it, but if you cleared all of the dtcs it would do the same thing where it would crank, fire, then die. And it would do the same thing a dozen or so times, and eventually it would start and run, but the difference is that it would run and actually be drivable. Whereas now if you can drive it at all, it goes into reduced power mode almost immediately, and even then it's not running correctly. When you come to a stop at a light it stumbles down to for 500 RPM before catching itself and returning to the smooth idle. And if you go more than about 50% throttle then it immediately goes back to doing the misfire thing.    Like I said, I know that throws a wrench into things, and unfortunately I was not able to pull any data or anything like that before I did this work, so I don't have much to go on.    I'm trying to not fixate on one particular thing as the cause of the problem, but it seems like all avenues are pointing me towards the PCM. Like I said I have tested the wiring extensively (see above), and during cranking the sensor does produce seemingly legitimate values at least according to my multimeter, but as soon as the engine fires those values quickly descend into gibberish. I've tried it with multiple different known working sensors, I have done literally every test I can think of multiple times on the wiring (probing the signals, probing the pins with the sensors unplugged, probing the pins at the PCM, voltage drop, voltage drop under load, continuity, ohms, and double-checking everything against the wiring diagrams/ proper values in the service data.)    Another thing that pushes me towards a possible PCM failure is, I have noticed in troubleshooting a little bit taking a break and coming back, that when I leave the truck to sit for a while and cool off, it starts and runs smoothly when I first start it up. However once it warms up. It starts having problems. For example, when I went out to the truck this morning after it had been sitting overnight, I was actually able to drive it down the block. And then once I got on the throttle a Little bit after going about a thousand ft, it started misfiring again. I pulled it back into the driveway, shut it down, and started it back up. It idled smoothly. As soon as I touched the throttle it did the misfire thing again. From then on as soon as I started it it would misfire. I shut the truck off and went to go get a coffee and do a bit more research. When I came back out I started the truck up and it immediately went into the smooth idle. After a couple of minutes of playing around with it, it would not idle smoothly anymore. Let it sit a couple of hours, rinse and repeat. This makes me think with temperature change something is going wrong inside the PCM. I have the PCM out of the 2007 donor vehicle and I'm thinking of getting a one-day subscription to the ACDelco programming service to try and program that and see if it helps.   Like I said, I'm really trying to not fixate myself on one potential cause, but it seems everything is pointing me towards PCM failure. I would really like to try to confirm that, but unfortunately I don't have an oscilloscope or a signal generator to do the GM service procedure where you feed 5 khz into the signal pin.

      Ahh, sorry about that - I got some bad info. Newdude is correct. That's what I get for working 13 hours straight ... on my "vacation", lol.   Should've checked the files I had instead of the internet.   Anyway ... this is GREAT news, since this would've been an absolute friggin nightmare to get working.   I don't think the lack of VVT is causing this - you've got another issue. Wiring, I'm betting.   I'm telling you right now, your computer isn't bad. If it worked before the swap, it's working now. You need to do some more (better) diagnostics and figure out exactly what you're missing. Did you test every wire directly at the MAF? Have 5V reference? Ground? If you're reading ZERO g/s, your Hz isn't much use - it's going to be the wrong value anyway. The MAF is not working, and you need to find out WHY.   I got this off the net, so VERIFY first: Pin A: Black (BLK) wire, Circuit 552, serves as the Sensor Return (Ground).  Pin B: Tan (TAN) wire, Circuit 472, carries the Intake Air Temperature (IAT) signal.  Pin C: Yellow (YEL) wire, Circuit 492, is the primary MAF Sensor Signal output to the PCM. Pin D: Pink (PNK) wire, Circuit 339 or 539, provides Ignition 1 Voltage (Power).  Pin E: Tan/Black wire, Circuit 552 or similar, often associated with the Intake Air Temperature ground or signal return.  Global-A list: https://postimg.cc/KKJnQC85

      Correct....the end user can't reach to Realtruck directly like they can if they purchase a Bak, Undercover, etc...  It has to go through a dealer.
