Only one version of the Ambush. It’s sightly smaller than the original Assassin. They’ll be putting out a ‘sling’ at the beginning of the new year. More of a waist belt meant for leaning only. No material to sit in.

Lonewolf Custom's Ambush
- Thread starter Nugget
- Start date
150 will sell out in 5 min lol... then the other few thousand will wait 3 month hahaha
I don't know how true this is but I heard that Todd Pringnitz was working with Lone Wolf Custom Gear on the casting for the Ambush. When Todd passed away I heard they decided to do away with the casting and do the water jet process instead. So that's why there is a different design in the platform. I could be wrong on this though.
Does the water jet vs cast cause a weight difference?

I'd say the water jet process would be lighter because they will be able to use less material. The cast they have to beef it up a little.

Thanks
Good to know
I didn’t realize that cast had to be beefed up

Yeah they're water jetting out of 3/4" 6061. Cast isn't as strong.

I priced out some 7075 aircraft aluminum yesterday for 18X14X3/4 . It was $168 for the plate..
Then once you figure the cost of water jetting, other components, and your time it's probably better to order one
This late in the season I will wait to see if they have things that need to be fixed from first run - and to see who is coming out with what. With Saddle Hunting growing so much right not, i am sure we will see a lot of new toys after New Years and as the shows season starts.

With people wanting a little larger platform I think if tethrd or out on a limb doesn't come out with a larger one they will be dropping the ball like lonewolf has at getting there's out. Just my opinion.
