Old Question Again

Postby BayouBob » Sat Apr 28, 2012 1:03 am

Does anyone know who makes the black followers that are now in the Bushmaster factory mags? I haven't been able to get a response from anywhere I have asked.
My Daddy was wrong when he said: "When a man turns 60 he ought to be able to trade his testicles in on a new set of teeth." Oatmeal and soup don't sound too bad.

Evidence points to C Products Defense as the manufacturer of both the Bushmaster and AR Stoner branded magazines. I have emailed their contact info with no reply and tried several times to contact them by the listed phone number, but it was busy.

Someone with time on their hands during the business day should perhaps keep calling the phone number until they get through. At work, due to some of my co-workers leaving or retiring, I am now doing the work of two people and don't have the disposable time I had a short while ago to pursue these things.

I've gotten no response from them either.

Same here..."no response" seems to be the standard for customer service with the firearms industry these days. :(

C-Products has changed hands, but most of the original players are still there, including their all so important Engineering Staff, led by the infamous Berry Bergen.

They are now...Ammunition Storage Components LLC or "ASC" is the premier manufacturer and supplier of AR magazines to the rifle industry. Their web site is.. http://www.ammosc.com/, talk to Berry or to his son Rick, who often answers the telephone.

Here's the kicker and your best bet, .."tell them I sent you"!! And make sure you do this..

Should get things running along quite well..

Finally got ahold of the guy that works in plastic injection molding. He has sold the business, but looked at my bushy follower for a long time and seemed interested. Just couldnt seem to get an answer out of him as to whether or not he had the connections to make a run of them. He even went as far as saying that the piece could be added to an unused portion of an existing mold so that it could be plugged if not needed or openened up and ran with the other parts on the mold. I'll let you know if i hear back from him on the matter.
