Very pretty. While I'm starting to get a bit annoyed by companies slapping "tactical" on anything with rails, I like the aesthetic that the rails bring. I doubt I'd ever mount anything to them, but they look good. Just like on the Tac-One.

Does anyone know when these will be available for purchase, or if any US stores are taking pre-orders? I'm thinking I might make this my personal marker.

These have been delayed due to some external supplier issues. Be patient, and they might be out by the end of August I am told. The Macdev crew wants to ensure that the product they put out is of the best quality, so they have delayed the first shipment. They will be well worth the wait. I will be posting up a review as soon as I get my mitts on the three I've ordered.

PM me if you want more details on ordering.

So, basically the Drone is to Droid as the PM8 is to DM8? Basically a cheaper but almost effective version?

Also how much is it if Boomer1 has already ordered some?

the comparison to a dm and a pm is less they both operate the same way its more like a shocker and an ion. the droid operates like a shocker (balanced spool valve with a sealing dump chamber) the drone operates like an ion (unbalanced blow forward)

Something they should of done when they released the droid. Once again I will pass. Until MD proves to me they are not another SP I will never waste my money on thier products again.

Price point is looking to be $550 and you can order them through Ranjerz Proshop, other retailers or directly through the Irregulators. We have a major trip in the works and appreciate anyone who wants to help us out by ordering through us. :-)
