[Re: scopeman]       #3161485 - 06/13/09 09:58 PM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   Absolutely first rate products, and excellent service and support. Only criticism is I found the website a bit confusing, so I bought the Losmandy saddle + Vixen adapter, instead of the Losmandy/Vixen combo.

I too found the web site a bit confusing as I was quite new to the hobby and wasn't clear on the terminology. I just emailed him, told him what I had and what I wanted to do and then he got back to me as to what parts to order. Everything worked out just great. I don't think you will have any problems.

I have the CGEM dual saddle from ADM and the owner made up a side by side with losmandy plate and vixen saddles for me. I also have the CGEM knobs as well.

It is a piece of art. Reasonably priced and very prompt delivery. None better than ADM if you ask me.

[Re: Doug6952]       #3161829 - 06/14/09 01:20 AM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   Anthony is great to work with. If the website is a problem for you, email works well, or call him (not sure if his number is on the website, but it will be on his e-mail reply). I've talked to him a couple of times and he's a real pleasure to work with. He will literally jump through hoops to get you what you want if you need one of his products modified. ... and his stuff is absolutely top quality. The shipping is very reasonable also.

Both are excellent, but I find that the AP is a little more refined. Post Extras:       payner scholastic sledgehammer Reged: 03/22/07 Loc: Bluegrass Region, Kentucky Re: ADM Products? [Re: Teal'c]       #3162381 - 06/14/09 12:52 PM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   I have the ADM Vixen to Losmanday adapter and a dovetail plate. Anthony's products are first-class and he is as well. I received a DP that would not work recently from him and he did not have the one needed. He told me what I was planning on going with was the correct item, and refunded my purchase price before I had time to mail it the next day. Very refreshing customer service and will buy from him whenever he has what I need. Randy Post Extras:       chollman sage Reged: 04/24/08 Re: ADM Products? [Re: payner]       #3162624 - 06/14/09 03:40 PM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   I have the ADM dual saddle on my CGEM. Very nice! I also purchased a 15" plate for my 8" F/8 newt. The plate is excellent, 5/8" thick and holds my rings perfectly. Could not be happier. The only gripe is that the saddle knobs had too thick of a nylon washer, causing the saddle to come apart when backing out. This was fixed easily with thinner washers, which I already had...Charlie Post Extras:       mtb.daily sage Reged: 09/19/07 Loc: Toronto, Ontario, Canada Re: ADM Products?
