Still searching

I always wanted one of these myself so I asked gene what would it take to have another run. His answer was a po for 100 or so. Well that ain't gonna happen 😁

Damn 100?

Any idea how many were in the original run?

 

[thermal guy]

Don't think it was 100. I thought it was 50 or so.

 

[Kid9P]

Well thanks for trying, no way we could get 100 people on board.

When I asked Gene for an 18350 body he said he would need a 1,000 to get the price right. I find that hard to believe but maybe so.

Surely, there are 25 members that would take 4? How much were they? I always wanted one. That's what's never happening.

It would definitely depend a lot on the price, but considering what they might cost, I likely wouldn't be able to justify buying more then one. Although to be honest, Im more interested in those 18350 bodies kernel mentioned lol. Or better yet, that 2x21700 body...

 

[chillinn]

Talk to RPM. Not sure why he didn't offer one in 18350 to start with, but he is super nice and accommodating.

Just something about that chunky 18350 form factor. I like the looks.

The S2+ 18350 is really nice. The MOA looks cool.
Richard with Mtn Electronics makes a no thrills FET driver that is Malkoff dependable.

FM sells 18350 tubes, but sadly original Malkoff 18350 is the only way to go, otherwise I'd be loosing the clip & the MDC clip is the best clip ever put on anything. There's simply no substitute .

Doesn't have to be clunky for carry, but perhaps it does for Malkoff bomb-proofedness.

original Malkoff 18350 is the only way to go

This I gotta see, and I can't find any pictures of it.

I think about 100 bucks.

 

[chillinn]

I guess the real issue there is affording four titanium bodies, four tails, and four Malkoff dropins to go with them. It adds up fast.

I believe there was a Ti VME group buy here. At the time, minimum quantity was 25 people. If my memory serves me right, cost approx 130 each

I've seen where people sit the vme in drain cleaner then polish the VME if you're just going after the metal shiny look
