I was told today that the STANAG rails for the last four IWS bracket J rails will be made next week, so anyone that wants one, drop me a line. The price will be the same as the rest, $390. USD plus shipping. This is definitely the end.

Now spoken for, thanks to those who PM'd and thanks to all those who have purchased in the past.
No Robert..........., it US that should be thanking YOU for making the effort, getting off his ar........, er..... bottom, putting his money on the table and getting something that forumers need, remanufactured. Thanks from me for a start
Well touche Peter, my apologies because I should have thanked you before all else, since the project would never have happened without your help and guidance.
Any new word on these?
Good Day,
I believe the remaining four bracket were sold (read about midway in the thread). I purchased one and mounted my AI green S&B scope in it. The fit and finish of the bracket was exceptional. THANK YOU Robert! Pics are here:

I purchased one too. Mounting it on my No4T right now and the finish and fitting is perfect. thanks Rob
Ok...well still awaiting mine then. Had not heard anything since payment was sent.
As per the PM's I've just sent, my apologies to those of you who were waiting for brackets. I have shipped the three remaining units this evening by XpressPost. You should have them within 4-6 days. Your shipping costs will be refunded shortly.
There is one more bracket now packed and ready to ship if someone else wants it.
There may be as many as a dozen more units available in future if the remaining "J" rails pass inspection and the matching STANAG rails for them are completed. I cannot say when that may occur. When and if they are completed and ready to ship, I will mention it here.
PM sent
I'd be interested please Robert - pm sent
Just to expand on my previous post, there are another 12 or 13 "J" rails that were left over which have been inspected by one of the two gents who worked on them and he believes they were just cosmetic rejects, OR simply left over without matching STANAG rails when the material for those ran out. So, the other gent is going to look them over as well, and if he thinks they're good, he said they will do the STANAG rails for them.
Personally I'm confident there is nothing functionally wrong with them as the dimensions were taken off the original drawings, and an original bracket I had at the time, and alignment and fitting was checked on a No4(T) of mine that had as new pads that had never been disturbed. We set up lasers in rings on the brackets and bore-sighted the rifle in a vise at about 40 feet - the best distance we could get indoors where the lasers were visible. Collimation is everything obviously.
Some of these are spoken for already, but there's probably six or so that are not as of now.
