Snowpeak Preordered my MAX1

[jakeb]

From Wes today
Hi! Thanks for all your patience in waiting for this order. The Canadian shipment cleared customs friday and I've booked the pickup from the warehouse in Toronto/Mississauga monday, so I should have everything in a few more days. I had a shipment of guns sent to Texas in early april but that resulted in a big problem as they got stuck in customs and cleared a day late and got charged over 100 percent tariff so i had to send those back. These will ship out under $800 usd value and be exempt so you should not get any tariff when I send these out.
I will start sending invoices for any amount left owed tomorrow and I have a hired man to help me get these orders out asap. Thank you so much for waiting and letting me get these finally shipped off to you.
Thanks

Good news Wes.

Any one figure out where the reg adjuster is on it? Watched a couple of the Brazilian videos but no one has adjusted it or pointed it out from what I could understand.

 

[Ratzy]

You need to adjust it before you get it?

I think he means where is the external screw/nut we will use to adjust the reg setting from factory default. It's not obvious when we look at the few pics/videos available right now.

Correct. Snowpeak only has one photo on their sight and no diagram yet.

Maybe it's in the same spot but recessed inthr collar that connects the over barrel cylinder and normal cylinder.

 

[Ratzy]

Yes, i realized that.
The point was that without a Max 1 in hand it does not matter where the adjustment is located.

Hi! They sent mags separately and they look identical but when I tried loading it in a m60b it would not insert. Took a closer look and for some reason they made the top ridge that slides above the barrel a bit thicker so it won't work on the m60 . Disappointing for sure. I suppose they must have planned to make them the same then ran into some design issue where the barrel had to be put lower or something but nonetheless it is too bad, seeing so many people have the Zelos mags readdy to go.
Regards
Wes

Very true, but I got an inquisitive mind and I'm looking forward to getting mine and letting stuff.

Thanks for the update Wes.

How many mags comes with our Max 1? One or two?

 

[WesBob]

Comes with one mag but I was able to get one more each for the guns. I think I'll just add an extra mag as a thank you for waiting

Wow! That's very nice of you. Thank you!

Truly, exceptional customer service from Wes at AirgunArcheryFun !!

Trifecta!
A $790 slug shooter!
SPA/Snowpeak/Umarex really seem to be firing on all cylinders lately.
If the Max1 turns out to be as good as the Notos/Zelos/M60B products, they are going to make it difficult for other manufactures to sell $2500 slug shooters going forward.
Time will tell!
I plan on watching this one carefully!
Congratulations!

My barra 250z slings slugs like it’s life depends on it for $450… but it is another SPA gun so add that to the list haha.

Hey Wes,
Will you have moderators for the MAX 1
ready to purchase and ship with the MAX?
It would be great to have one the same diameter as the MAX tank shroud.

Pardon my French, but...

I just tested one in 22 cal out of the box its come with 3 magazine,fill probe and oring bag.
first thing I noticed when filling the gun is that the regulator gauge reading the same as the cylinder. Degassing was easy to around 50bar decrease the regulator as the manual guide the set the pressure to 160bar just for testing. At that pressure it shoot the 32.2 altaros 840fps and there is regulator creep around 10 bar after setting for 5 minutes but it’s stop there.
Cooking is smooth. Trigger is bad now but there is adjustment for will play with it later . I think it have a balance valve .there is silencer on the barrel end but it’s very noisy.

Pardon my French

It aired on our PBS here yesterday, i saw this excellent movie once again.

 

[jakeb]

Anyone get a bill for the MAX 1 preorder balance yet?
This is concerning: A major shipping loophole expired at one minute past midnight on Friday. The de minimis exemption, as it’s known, allowed shipments of goods worth $800 or less to come into the United States duty-free.
Not sure where that leaves things.

China only, de minimis still in effect for Canada
