Unfortunately as this set is going into GB shortly it is too late for kitting revisions. That being said the choices were deliberate to try and keep cost down. 'Just one key more' can easily turn into a bunch of keys once the flood gates open.

We are live! I will update with more links as everyone gets their listings up :)


A special thank you to Delta airlines for free WiFi so I can post this. Not sponsored. Not yet at least.

How are we looking for MOQ?

Just saw on Canonkeys the group buy was extended to September 7.

Don't wait for extras, people. There won't be extras if this doesn't reach MOQ

Unfortunately, sales have been lower than expected for this set, so we are extending by a week. If you were planning on waiting for extras on this one- they won't exist if we aren't able to hit MOQ!

Now live through September 7th!

Really hope this set gets made. I love GMK stealth, especially with the blackout kit so this would be a nice set.

The base kits and modi kits in both colorways will be made, however the ext kits unfortunately will not. Expect to hear from your vendors directly about this in the coming week.
