Nice find! Just ran across this thread and couldn't live without them!

So far great customer service, I typed my email in wrong last night 12:10am and realized it this morning when I looked at what I printed. So at about 8am I emailed them to tell them of my mistake and by 9:30am they resigned to my email nd made the change.

I just ordered a couple of them too. It seems like the FRF has swamped their inventory, so they dropped the shipping charge while they are back-ordered. However, the website says they will be arriving today, so order today to get free shipping.

Rick you should sell this so he can consentrate on making them.

I just finished installing mine. The "pin-puller" is nicely designed and colored, almost too good to be hidden behind the seat. The included bracket is also nicely designed to fit over the factory bracket and has a strap retainer to hold the strap above the seat. The strap itself is a close match for the baby seat strap so it looks like it should be there. As @RDFTS mentioned, part of the cost a product is to cover R&D costs, and it is obvious a lot of thought went into it, so I don't mind the price. But it would be nice if @BuiltRight gave an FRF discount.

Now I'm curious what is behind the cheapo material covering the back wall of the cab. Where do I put the mounts for my SCAR 16S?

He does offer 5% discount as someone else already mentioned by signing up for his BRI newsletter. I didn't see that when I ordered.

At the bottom of this page. Now, wait a sec as he used my pictures and my comments from FRF to help promote it on his website. Hmm, I never authorized that...Guess the forum is the public Internet huh.

I pulled out all that stuff a few weeks ago. It's a pretty good spot for some gun mounts, lots of raised sheet metal areas for mounting hardware. I just don't know how much clearance you'd have when the seat is leaned back against the rear wall. Your M249 probably won't fit

Thanks for the info. The raised sheet metal might be great to hang a couple of straps. I'll take a look tomorrow.

I missed out on the 5% discount as well, but thanks Rick @RDFTS for spotting it. Also, you take great pictures, good enough to be on their website.

Just ordered one and I don't even have my 17 screw Raptor yet. Wish I found this when I had my 2012 screw.
