Been waiting (not so) patiently to find JD Tech's Stingray Copper Black mods available. I did my daily search and up came a clone preorder. I jumped on it. It will have to suffice until I can snag an authentic article, and I can use the clone at work.

Anyways, here is is for under $40.

Asmart Black Copper Stingray Mod Clone - White Stag Vapor

I am in no way affiliated with White Stag and have never ordered from them, so I genuinely hope the transaction will go smoothly.

Grab one while you can!

I am in the white stag vapor group buy for the brass stingray. Still waiting for Tobeco to ship him the devices. Supposedly there was a manufacturing defect and they decided to fix them. I also was in a white stag origin clone group buy and I already received that one. I would shop with them again.

Currently, for the black copper stingray I am in a group buy on calivapers. I love the fact it comes with three separate tubes. I can't wait to get it. I have to decide which size tube to sand down to full copper. It'll be like having two separate mods! supposedly the manufacturer is shipping them to the organizer on Thursday.

Yep. It is a disappointment. When I opened the package and pulled out the box I was impressed. The box is gorgeous. When I opened the box I thought it looked decent. The logo is painted on (huge disappointment). When I pulled out the 18350 assembly (the unit comes with the top and bottom caps installed on the 350) I was rather impressed with the weight of it. It is a heavy unit. SO I pulled down my Nemesis and snagged my Omega off of it. I unscrewed the trigger on the Stingray and my heart kind of sank. It was a 1:1 copy of a Nemmy switch, but exceptionally sloppy. I installed the Omega on the top cap and was impressed with the floating 510 pin, and set up the 650 tube with my VTC5. The switch is atrocious. The inner bore is way off and the switch is nearly impossible to fire. I yanked my switch apart on my Nemmy clone and disassembled it. I basically used the cap from the Stingray and everything from the Nemmy clone (which I had to massage to get it even close to my real Nemmy). It is vastly improved, but it just feels like a Nemmy clone.

FWIW it does hit like a hammer. The tubes are impressive, but the black powdercoat with the painted logo sucks. It is pretty, and when the paint starts to flake I will strip it down, polish it, and maybe acid etch the stingray logo on it, so it isn't a total loss.

Oh well. My disappointment has really left me a bit standoffish on the real deal. Yes, I know it is a lousy clone that is not even close to a 1:1, but I am still irritated.

Don't waste your money on this clone. It is the worst purchase I have made thus far, aside from Blu.
 
According to the guy running the GB on CV the Skorite versions of the BC Stingray were so disappointing he is returning them for a full refund. I ordered separately an infinite one. I am hoping it is as good as their brass Stingray.


I look forward to your info on the Infinite. Where did you find it?
