You guys have problems huh, just think of all the knuckleheads that went out and bought a Ruger Gold Label just a day or two before the RBL was announced!!

WOW! 50 guns per week, that's 2600 guns a year, a two+ year back log, an average of $3000.00 per gun, equals almost 16 MILLION in sales. If only a third of the orders were paid in full and the rest only the $1,000.00 deposit that is a 9 MILLION Dollar interest free loan to fund you business ventur. If I had that kind of back log I'd be doing all in my power to keep current customers happy so that I did not loose the tigers tail. A little PR would go a long way.

It has amazed me to learn how many RBL customers don't seem to have another shotgun to shoot while they wait. I just spent my RBL money today, for about the twenty first time. Oh, well. At least I'll have something to shoot while waiting for the RBL.

Gee.....Bob, Yeah, what amazing whiners the rest of us customers are who don't seem to have another gun to shoot ! 21 times $2,500 = $1,102,500. Now, that is amazing.

Gee.....Joe. What I find most amusing is reading the blind acceptance of the non-communication. mig0621 heard 50 guns/week. Which week? Last one we heard about here was #68 and there's been a lot of weeks since April when production was going to start according to the propaganda.Oh yeah, you stopped reading RBL threads.

I've never heard of a start-up venture that went exactly according to the plan. When I ordered my RBL, I considered that I was assuming some measure of risk. I did my home work and then paid my money. Because I did some prior planning, I'm still well within my comfort zone. If CSMC goes belly up, you won't hear me whining because I'm the one that's responsible for my dollars, not CSMC. For may folks its always easier to blame someone else for your own, self made, problems. Sounds like some of the whiners did the opposite (money first, homework later) and somehow I get the feeling that some of the loudest whining is coming from guys who have yet to put any money down.
