Infected Mod?

Just watched Ruby Roo's review on the Infected mod:

Looks like a very nice build and US made.

Anyone own this mod and can comment on it?

I have one, and I love it. Threads are buttery smooth. When put together you can't feel the seams. Hits hard. Smooth button. Awesome authentic for the price! The packaging is pretty fun, if that matters to you lol. Any other questions I can answer just let me know.

Well. I got one and my threads are NOT buttery smooth. Far from it. Hits like a beast, but dissappointed in the the threading compared to my Super T.

I havent had a good experience with my Infected either. The machining quality is pretty terrible. I love the button but the mine came with a sharp enough to cut yourself lip on it. The top cap has a similar problem. The brass sections on mine still have the raw machining lines as well. I don't even want to talk about the threads....It might sound like I'm nit picking a bit, but I expect a $100 authentic to have better fit and finish than my $30 clones.
That being said, I like the mod. It hits hard and its solid. They hit it out of the park with the packaging. I just want to see them put a bit more effort into the Q/C aspect of things and they'll be a hit in the reasonably priced authentic market.

What numbers did you both get? Mine is 801. Maybe some issues with earlier production? They say lifetime warranty, maybe they can help with the issues.

Mine is Zombie ID #1975, which I'm assuming is a later batch. The threading is terrible, both on the end caps and the 510.

Thanks for the advice though -- I did send off a message to USA Mods to see if they could do anything about it (although I ordered via Vapor Beast, so may have to send it back to them).

Just an update on this. I already heard back from USA Mods within one hour after I sent them the email. They will be sending me a prepaid envelope so I can send it back and they will replace it with a new tube, no questions asked. I don't know what I'll get in exchange, but from this one interaction, this is GREAT customer service to me.

 

[VIadTheInhaler]

Bummer you got a bad one, but that seems like top notch customer service! I hope they get you straightened out!

what is nice about it?

The finish. I liked the media blasted look of it. But we all have different tastes. It feels really solid in the hands, switch is great, and it hits hard. If my replacement has better threading, it will be my top mech (for now)

Well it seems to have a recessed switch; what about the center pin; does it have
adjustable centerpin
spring loaded center pin
fixed center pin (not likely)
loose center pin (like the stingray)

Wish it was 22mm

It is 22mm. I've been tempted by this thing for a little while. Looks like it would be my style, too.
