Dan@Montana Rifle CoMRC M1999 Pro Hunter & Mini Actions
Guys, just thought I'd let you know that as of today we have 72 PH Actions and 70 Mini Actions sold. We are about a 1/3 of the way for each.

30 Caliber Mag FanDan,
Thanks for the update. It might be beneficial to report on the status of the proto-type of the PH.
I personally feel that two or three prototypes of the PH to show off at the Shot Show and possibly the SCI show will have you guys covered up in orders. Some new photography regarding the PH on the web site would also serve you well.
Of course, all of these comments also apply to the Mini, as well.

DavidCDan,
I'm with 30CalMagFan.
I'd like to see where the PH is going. From past posts it seems like much of the design is/was still up in the air and could go in any number of directions.
Some new pics. and a current list of features would be MUCH appreciated.
Regards,
Dave

338guyI agree with the previous posts. I would like to see the current status of the PH action. Might just be something I can't live without.

Dan@Montana Rifle CoCan't get the Mini Actions yet, but we are working on it. When I say we are a 1/3 of the way there I meant that we are a 1/3 of the way of getting the orders necessary to start the molds.
As to the PH we are working with our designer to get the final design done. We should see the final soon. We do plan on having 3 R/H and 3 L/H PH actions (prototypes) available for the Shot Show.

HammerDan,
What do you have for me for the left-hand PH stainless-steel model ?

Dan@Montana Rifle CoHammer,
I didn't see an order for a L/H PH action for you, but that is not a problem as I can put you in for one immediately. Let me know the bolt face you want on it and I'll take care of it personally.

RobgunbuilderDan- Since I'm high up on the list for two PH actions, when do you estimate that they might be ready to ship? How about a prototype for a Big Bore project that could be shown here on AR? -Rob

Dan@Montana Rifle CoRob,
Right now with there only being 72 sold it is still a ways off. What does that mean? It means that we are looking at mid to late 2004. We are going to make prototypes for the PH and will probably have one or two of them barreled and stocked (if possible) for the Shot Show. Once we have them done we'll try to get them on the board so everyone can see them.

TC1Hey Dan, What was the decision on the drop box on the PH action? Is this going to be standard or an upgrade?
Personally, I don't think it's acceptable without one.

<seven17>Dan,
Would it be possible to mention the PH and Mini on your website in some way to help drum up some more orders for them? I would guess most of the hunting and shooting world has no idea they will be available at some point. If they are mentioned on there specifically, I missed them. Just trying to help boost things along!

Dan@Montana Rifle CoWe are going to have what I would call a "pregnant" floorplate for the PH so that it can handle a larger number of cartridges. This seems to be what most everyone has requested.
As to the website I'm still working on a new site because unfortunately as we had someone else design the current website we have no way to make changes to it ourselves. Once I have finished it I will update it on a daily basis.
