    So, I see some places selling the M3 (always out of stock), the new XTM handstop (also out of stock) and the XTM Enhanced Panels (also out of stock).

    So, are the XTM handstop and panels really released or are all these on-line stores just backfilling their books with pre-orders? I can't find any PR around the actual releases of these products.

    I also did a Google search and found a bunch of Chinese knock offs of the XTM Enhanced.......

    Anyone actually find the XTM handstops available? I've been waiting for this all too long. If it functions as good as it looks/sounds then it'll be replacing my vertical grip.

    XTM handstops are extremely close. It's a complex package, so lots of pieces to get right. Could have had them out months ago, but there were a few things we weren't happy with, and the texture was something that we've messed with a bit to have it meet requirements goals.

    What's not very amusing is the fact that we've had Chinese XTM handstop counterfeits come in as "warranty claims". They knocked off the SLS prototypes we showed previously, right down to having the incorrect texture that we've since changed.

    I'd tell you how happy we are with the final version, and how we'll be switching a lot of guns over to these, but we're not exactly unbiased, so I'll let them speak for themselves.

    That's crazy. They don't waste a minute ripping stuff off!

    Glad to hear it. My gut tells me if Magpul rushed all these products out then it wouldn't be the same Magpul. Perfection takes time.

    Can't say I'm really surprised by the Chinese knockoffs. I'll leave that for the Airsoft kiddos.

    Good to hear! I have been patiently waiting for these for a while.

    I just ordered 10 using the above link. Took 2 separate orders (they limit to 5 for free shipping). I will relay the info if I find any problems. However I do not expect to have any.
