Misc Fox Operator experiences?

Hi everyone

Looking to buy some stuff from Fox Operator in Australia, I don't have a Pay Pal account nor do I want one, so I would have to use their alternate banking method but I have no idea how to complete it, my bank requires much more information not provided in the details provided after the order was made.

I have tried to email them and so far no word.

Anyone use the banking deposit method to pay for their order?

Thanks!

Mind if I ask what you're looking at there? Hadn't heard of them before so I just took a quick look and it's mostly stuff you could source in country, mainly with Tommy Enterprises

The Alcor Flared mag well, I checked Tommy before ordering from Fox and he doesn't have one.

I ordered all Alcor parts as well looking forward to getting them and seeing how the run I have the Tommy hand guard broke the first day literally cracked while installing

Yeah same here.... I support Tommy in what he does, and he is really really good to make a replacement and send it out to you free of charge if it breaks on you, multiple times even, but I really hope he can find some better materials that are stronger or if he can make his designs out of aluminum that would be best and I have a feeling that people won't mind paying the extra dough to get sturdy materials ya know?

I wish there were more in the industry that does what he does and he is great for getting stuff out to market and fast, but the strength of material leaves a lot to be desired. Maybe even if the thickness of the Nylon resin material he uses was increased it would hold up to some abuse.
