OK, after the successful start to the AGS Brass Annealer group buy, I am ready to start thinking about other group buys. We just came back from SHOT, so this is fresh on our to do list (among the long list of designing and building LS Wild stuff).

What items would you like to see as a "group buy" and readily available in a store?
I have two goals with the "group buys" which are FIRST to get Roksliders a smoking deal on a great product and SECOND is to use that as an launch because to carry new items in our online store.

My partner and I love hunting and love great gear. We will continue to make our bags and innovate new soft good products. But, we also want to offer more to the "niche" market of ultralight hunting/backcountry hunting community. We intend to stay small, but continue to build our inventory with the ultralight backcountry hunter in mind.

I am thinking about and working on several things like:
  1. 22 creedmoor prefits (common actions like Tikka, Savage, Remage, Zermatt,/Solus etc.)
  2. mini CBK style skinning knife
  3. ultralight pencil barrels for the ULUL AR15 thread

I can only post on this thread every 24 hours, maybe this is not the best forum... But, keep the ideas going, I'm watching and will respond.
Yes Howa mini stainless actions! That’s a great idea!
I have the contact for my local Howa sales guy. I already asked him about it, but going to follow up. He thought there was a stainless Mini action rifle in the US. Anyhow, I'm going to talk with him. We are thinking about getting our FFL to deal in firearms. So this would fit.

@satchamo Tripods and prefits are in the mix for sure.

@one66stang our SSS Pillow or another glassing pad?

@Kaleb you can do a Howa/Vanguard prefit with a barrel nut. I have one for a Howa Mini that works great.

I wonder if Howas/vanguards have the tolerances for a prefit? I don’t know if enough people would be interested in prefit for them?

You can do a "prefit" for them but it is a barrel nut style and not a shouldered prefit. It would be similar to how a Savage barrel is changed.

Love the ULUL barrel idea (6x45, 6 ARC especially, 20" length ideally) as well as specialty ULUL parts (bolt action uppers, carbon buffer tubes/stock/forends).

I'd also love a stainless Howa Mini, with bottom metal, in 223, or 6 ARC...

Just some thoughts. Thanks!
