I do not know if I sold Bigbosstactical one of Dougs receivers, but it appears he has copied exactly - word for word - the description I wrote some months back when I sold a few of Dougs receivers.

 

Also he is not correct that Dougs Ultimax receivers are the only receivers with a fully machined ejection port, feed ramp, and extractor slot. These features have been standard on Phila Ord receivers for many years.

 

The last receivers Doug made he did not broach the extractor slots. He drilled a 1/4 round hole where the extractor slot was to be,

then drilled the larger hole for the bolt head, barrel thread, etc. He was always looking to make what he considered to be improvements - like his screw-on grip mount, but each of these ideas made the end result a little less of a Thompson.
