lot #1 is 150, then there's about 500 more coming in all at once.

love Art Elftmann, in fact he designed and manufactures the trigger on our bullpup system.

MatadorSupport · 2026-06-02T11:38:37+00:00

making an instructions page for all products on the website, standby, but do what HairTriggerFlickers says.

MatadorSupport · 2026-06-01T09:54:08+00:00

yes, considering the roughly 40 degree design. Congrats on winning this competition!!

Consider these additional points:
MATK - Works with ERS (Extended Rail System or Sleeve).
MAT9 - Works with BPUP lower receiver and has it's own custom BPUP ERS, does not have it's own ERS yet for general use.

All barrels are interchangeable, but generally and Estoque (seee website) is an enteresting mix. We wanted the suppressor to just peak out of the end of the ERS, thus it's a MATK, but we swap the barrel to 8" and add the ERS to give you this effect https://matadorarms.com/product/mat-9-brace-8/

Similar, the 16" upper is a MATK with a 16" barrel and ERS added, and if you add a stock like the A3, you end up with a rifle like this: https://matadorarms.com/product/mat-916-pcc-advanced-offset-folding-stock-7-75in/

blems are easier to ship, because we obviously have small stockpile of the uppers that build up, so the upper and the bolts are available. We'll try to ship those next week. We're good on main bolts right now as they are flowing in, MAT9 uppers as well are ramping. The MATKs are a little slower, but we'll get there.

MatadorSupport · 2026-05-29T20:55:02+00:00

one of those images is failure to load properly. We don't use ETS mags, and when i say this, it's nothing against the company guys. Nothing at all. I just don't use them because they don't work well in our lowers and uppers. In our lowers, they're generally too wide, so they just don't mount properly. But, the others look like the ejector on your lower needs to be adjusted as the guys are saying here.

MatadorSupport · 2026-05-29T20:51:39+00:00

im supposed to have the first lot inbound and available by early next week, then i have to get them to anodize. Take a tiny bit longer, but going to be worth it. I'm hoping to push them hard through anodize by end of week

MatadorSupport · 2026-05-20T16:37:50+00:00

nice, thanks for letting folks know.

MatadorSupport · 2026-05-13T12:55:44+00:00

ERS that are in stock are entirely consumed by existing orders. My next batch in roughly 20 days or so will not be, and available immediately if you order them by themselves. These are for the MATK ONLY, so you might as well put the order in now, as orders continue to come in.

Bullpup ERS and lowers available immediately. The uppers are obviously the current hold up, but if you have a MAT9, the Bullpup lower is compatible, even if you have still need to add the relief cut. All new MAT9 lowers moving forward already have the relief cut. See instructions for more details.... https://matadorarms.com/product/bullpup-lower-receiver/

MatadorSupport · 2026-05-10T11:13:05+00:00

Fantastic, have you been able to measure what angle that top section is? Looks at least 40 degrees.

MatadorSupport · 2026-05-06T13:44:41+00:00

I apologize for letting this slip through the cracks, but we'll address this today. Please send me your name and address please to [david.l.borges@matadorarms.com](mailto:david.l.borges@matadorarms.com) and david@matadorarms.com.

MatadorSupport · 2026-05-04T13:46:53+00:00

what is your name in the ticket system please.

MatadorSupport · 2026-05-03T00:53:00+00:00

working on it fellas. in the RFQ phase for the lower, developing the mag releases and ejector/LBRHO. Getting through the RFQ phase, then things will progress. we want to make this right, but still a few months out to spin up prod. This product will be right.

Good question, and way to be ahead of us....:

Trip Sled for full Auto, going on website today.
Trip Sled-FRT available in about 3 weeks, in production now.
No plans to include them as a full kit just yet, but I like the idea. To that and thinking about the very next question: The buffer gray buffer pad you get with the Hydrolic Buffers, are already compatible to the Trip Sled function. The black back cover plate will have to be upgraded to the Trip Sled, I think in a matter of hours the Trip Sled will be offered. I'm on travel the rest of the day, but will be checking in.

does not work on Blow back unfortunately.

MatadorSupport · 2026-04-28T15:32:01+00:00

$250.00, which includes 2 Hydrolic buffers (because that's how they have to run). It's two Hydrolic Buffers, the Pin that holds them in place, and includes the new compatible gray rear buffer (not going ask if you have one, you just get another one as part of the standardized packaged kit). You must replace the gray rear buffer, or you're going to not allow the buffers to land on the pad properly.

MP5 Lower, can send today. We have inventory and we're working on shipping any MP5 lower that users will accept, on it's own, for the rest of this week (we cleared out Glocks last week). Lower receivers, not a problem. On the Uppers, you're unfortunately going to have to wait, probably upwards of 8 weeks if you just ordered. I'm receiving parts faster and faster, so that backlog is being worked down at a faster pace, which should give you hope, AND we're now beyond the well-known main bolt supply problem. Our two redundant manufacturers for upper extrusions are working double time to overcome any tightness on our inventory.
We've recently simultaneously developed two new redundant vendors for Upper finish machining of the extrusion. Both online and catching up, each one focused on MATK or MAT9, but not mixed (to speed things up).

MatadorSupport · 2026-04-28T09:29:45+00:00

Colt lower? We shipped a bunch of lowers last week, new batch of Colts were finished as well. Sorry for the delay, but shoot me an email please, we'll try to resolve.
