      Man, that sucks. Means if I ever wanna do my minimum legal length drum-fed shotgun, I'd better do it now. :/

        just spent 20 minutes on the phone and...

        Knoxx had troubble with their manufacturer/supplier.. and so they had to pull the item..

        There is no new design in the works, or plan to bring it back..
        impact guns lists it in stock, but calling them its an old add and they dont have, and their suppliers are out (of the drums). Very dry inventory out there...

        Many small business had these on order, and were told to wait just a little long for few times over and over, and then finally told the item is discontinued, and "we are not shipping backorders"...

        all remaining inventory was purchased by: Advance Enterprises (816-741-9585) (no websight)... and they are looking to get (at this time anyways, as when they are gone they are gone, and currently they dont have any, just that they are in route) $199 for the 6 round kit, and $49 for additional 6 rounders (no drums in stock or on the way).


        IB- out

          There's been a drum kit in the display counter over at Iron Sights in Oceanside for a while now. I didn't check lately, though, but I remember seeing it there regularly.

              Sidewinder Discontinued - After several months of discussion and debate, we have decided to discontinue the Sidewinder System as a Knoxx Product. We are unable to find a vendor that can consistently provide us with parts made to specifications and we will not sell a product that doesn't function...

                  Thanks for posting the announcement for me Ironballs. I was on my way to do it this morning. There is other stuff coming but it won't be the Sidewinder and will probably be for Remington 870 guns. Don't look for anything this year but more towards the middle of next year.

                    What about my lowly 500?
                    Please, calm down.
