Spoke with Eric today - he corrected me - mags are not Mec-Gar - they are ''Check-Mate''... I mis-remembered!

The R factory makes the followers but does seem a bit of delay will occur as mag's supply catches up.  However, sounded like some guns have gone out this week and more go next so - onwards and upwards.  Plus July 5, after the break,  looks like Karl and Jeannie back from vacation so full steam ahead!

BTW - I hope quite soon to have copies of the promo videos - one of which folks may have seen on ShotShow TV some time back.  Once I have those and get 'em placed on server space, I'll post links.

WooooHooooooo!
Just got the call from Maria today to  get our balances sent in for delivery next week, (so for those in MI who have orders placed with us and have not yet paid in full-get those balances in, please).

Looking foward to my "new baby" as I know the others are! ;D

Life is Good!::)

Thanks, John.  That's very good news.

I replied twice to your email today.

I've been waiting since May of 2005.  It seems like a long ago period of a lifetime.

No one will know how slowly time passes, unless you have actually lived through this R9 anticipation.

The email task is set to check every thirty seconds.  The system is running slower.

Now we are on the final approach to happiness.  I see something glisten just ahead.  :)

Is it light at the end of the tunnel, a train, or the muzzle flash of a R9?    Regards, Tom

Hello from Larry. Spoke to Maria today.  Seems my dealer is slated to receive 10 guns in about 2 months.  She said that the 2 months I was promised by the dealer would be about right if in fact my name was on one of the ten.  I would assume this to be the case as he took my deposit June 16, and so stated the 2 month backorder. Maria also said that they would be sighted (R9s).
I also inquired as to availability of custom serial numbers. She said that that service is temporarily unavailable do to the backlog.  However, it should resume later. She did say however, that they were about 5 to 6 months backordered in general.
We then spoke of some "Wish List" topics which I will relate in appropriate thread.

Thanks for the heads up, Brendan.

I'm scheduling a trip up north around the R9S arrival, so your input is much appreciated.

The Gold Dots are ready to test it out.

Well, our delivery date has been changed once again.
They are now scheduled for shipment "Monday the 18th for sure" from the previous "latest ship date" of Wed 7-13.
One irate buyer refused to pay his balance as he said he has been waiting long enough (Oct. deposit) and wasn't pleased about his gun not being here after being promised to be able to pick his up last week.
I'm hoping that Monday is truly the day ours are shipped this time......
If not, I think I'd better just be vague with delivery date inquiries from now on. :-/

Whoisjohngalt, I never give an exact date until the guns are shipped. Any number of things can happen to change things a bit. Your customers will all have smiles on their faces when they hold their new R9s. Ask Maria for help.    Regards, Tom
