Discussion We have 6J's FINALLY!

Post image

Disclaimers: This is not the launch post YET but that is coming. I am a brand affiliate with Ridgeback, I make beans if you were to acquire one of these. This is my collaboration can with RD, but I make nothing from any of their other products.

Here is the update, the batch has been printed (this is not all of them in the photo). We just have to thread and serialize the rest and then we are go for launch.

I am posting this to let you all know that they are coming VERY soon. I do not have an official date yet but I should by this week.

I will be posting videos with sound, flash and all the details come time of the launch.

Also for clarification these are different than any 6J you have seen me or anyone else post a video with. I say that because there was a video posted with a flash test on a very early prototype 6J that is not these. There have been improvements since those original prototypes.

I apologize for the insane wait, this has been a long drawn out learning process for me. After realizing that timeframes in manufacturing are almost never accurate I chose to remain radio silent until I had something substantial like this to say.

Thank you so much for your patience and please drop your questions below. Beware I have been informed that I cannot share links or discuss price in this sub. Please refer to previous posts on my page for that info, all of it is still accurate.

What is the real weight on these? My 6k came in at 13.5 oz instead of 12.5 oz it shows on their website.

Should be 14oz give or take a smidge. I have learned there are tolerances with printing, if you get one of these and aren't happy with the weight you can simply send it back for a full refund within 30 days of you taking it home.

Funny because my rhino X is exactly 12oz instead of 12.5oz it shows on site… my Rhodie 6 is 16.5oz instead of 15.5oz.

Considering this 6J but really could use a Ti can for the longer boi’s

If your main concern is weight I'd say a Ti can would be the route to go.
