Frankford Arsenal Press

That's one of the most humorous things I've read today. Just how do you figure to be so sure that Forester has been put out of business? 95%, huh? (And no, I'm not trying to start any arguments here.)

But, funny none the less.

The only business I see this taking from Forster is from who don’t want to wait fo long periods of time to get a press, people who need a benchtop solution and people that want a similar press for less money. I don’t think this will hurt their business very much.

JMO, but those die blocks may just be a deal breaker.

Yep. The die block immediately dismissed my interest in this press.

NEXT!

So I ended up getting my hands on one of these, it's a pretty nice press. I like the built in light and as I'm only using for bullet seating the die blocks shouldn't be too much of an expense (similar expense to Lock-N-Load bushings). I ordered a QC plate from Inline Fab to mount this to so i am looking forward to that, for now just clamped it to my radial arm saw table to test it out. It was fairly smooth out of the box but after cleaning and oiling the guides it got really smooth. I'd like to pull it all apart and put a little grease on the pins to see if it could be improved further. Right now I'd say it's every bit as solid as my Redding T7.

DO you mind telling us where you got yours? Doesn't look like they have been released to anyone yet.

I ordered it from bass pro shops of all places.

I’m only using it for bullet seating so I don’t mind. I’m currently looking in to an insert that would allow for standard lock rings to be used like the co ax.

I'm willing to bet urbanshooter can 3d print something.

That would be perfect.
