Unfortunately no, we sold our last 3 in the span of 12 hours on September 2nd and do not know when we will get more.
The good news we are working with Recon Ordnance out of Wisconsin to help bring you your 1919A4 with an FRT. They sell 1919A4s with a nice accessory kit or the gun by itself for the same price we did. Let him know we sent you and that you want us to install your FRT.

Yes, we offer 1919A4 kit building services. Right now we only offer the semi-auto builds, but that will change within the next week or two once we determine the level of effort and related costs to install the AA FRT.
Please see our Services page for current pricing -
Right now are in the range of $600-800 on the install of an existing gun, which includes the cost of the FRT itself. That price will be locked in, once we determine the level of effort on the install.
If we are installing it into a new build, you will save the cost of the semi-auto trigger parts and a lower fee on install since it will be simpler. Prices coming soon. -
Our backlog changes constantly, so this will be a case by case basis and what you are looking to have done. Please reach out on the contact form to check on current times.
The goal is to have lead times on an FRT on an existing gun to be 1-2 weeks.
