Gosh I just threw it away. I had to get replacment seats for my AL100 stands. I did google them to find it. It took about four different numbers to find a working one. API had gone out of business but are back and running so it might take a few times to find it. Try a local retailer for the number also.

I have nothing but praise for the API stands I have. Having only one interaction with their customer service I can only say they were very good. The told me I would have the replacement seats for my stands in four days. They were wrong....I had them in three. :)

I too must speak highly of API (to date that is) my father owns several of their stands and I own one myself.. we have never had one minutes problem out of them and any time we have ever needed anything their customer service had been outstanding... with that being said I do understand that companies change so this is not to say that things have changed but I knwo at one time they were number 1 in my book..but maybe there will be a new number 1..lol I am gettign ready to order my Summit in a week or two!!

Now that you brought it up....I would like the number as well. I really like my baby grand but HATE my MAGNUM. I tried everything to make that damn stand not squeak.

I' ll only buy Lone Wolf or Top Gun from Wildlife Innovations going forward.

Another API fan here, I love the bowhunter.

Everyone seems to like the Lone Wolf stand so I tried one that belongs to my buddy and let me tell you it was nice but the straight seat was not very comfortable.
I will stick with my bowhunter as a matter of fact if anyone has a extra API bowhunter they dont use anymore let me know. I would love to have another one.

I haven' t fell out of a tree with my API. I guess thats a plus.

I own a summit too. I haven' t fell with that one either.

Neither stand makes any noise. Just me.

Guys,
API (Paul Meeks) was bought out a few years back by Outland Sports. Outland sports has gone bankrupt and was bought by the Koplin company. Koplin did not buy the API line. My guess is because of a few lawsuits out because of falls. Word has it that BassPro and Cabelas have bought rights to the name and have been selling stands made overseas under the API name. Right now, those are the only places to get API.

What exactly is so bad about them ? Everyone knows that the Summit stands have an easier cable lock system but it pretty much ends there in my opinion. Honestly, I actually prefer the bite of the API " motorcycle" chain system they use. Gives me a more secure feeling.

Love my grand slam super star. I did have of the plastic inserts break, and had two new ones in the mail less than a week later. I just called the number on the sticker on the stand to get customer service. That was before the big overeseas move though...
