Hi Guys. I have two Air-Mite DAP-7 presses. They do a great job of turning the FC III into production machines. My customers are mainly world-wide. I have even sold some .35/.357's to Santa Claus with a North Pole address! Imagine that! Drop me a line at [email protected]

Are they cheaper? I saw 30 cal at $8.00 per 250. Aren't the copper ones sold by the thousand? I think the last price I saw was about $26 per thousand for copper. His are $32.00 per thousand.

Mnshooter, post the facts! My .30 cal checks can be had in 100,500 or 1000 count for $25.00 a thousand with $1.75 S&H. Midway sells .30 cal copper checks for $28.49 when they have them! How about my 45 cal checks at $25.00 a 1000, Midway sells them at $36.99 a thousand. Shoot the copper the economy need the infusion of cash!

Tell you what. You could fly them to NZ and they would still be HALF the price of commercial checks. Good to see.
Cheers from New Zealand

And you have them in .41!!! I'll be dropping an order shortly.
I make my own .30 thanks to Mr. Bill 2. He has a prototype tool that work well. Simple tool that produces a finished check every pull of the handle.

Funny how things happen like that. I came up with that about 1 to 1 1/2 years ago.
Just wanted to prove to myself it could be done, one stroke one finished check. Turned out pretty good.
