I was told the last time I called in mid-July that mine would be "in the shop this week". The lady I spoke with said that she doubted it would be in my hands by 1 September and I believe her and I seriously doubt that I will see it before the dove opener on 1 Sept. The order date on my confirmation has 5 Jan 06 on it. I have about gotten to where I don't really care anymore whether it comes before the season or not. I ordered the gun as a gift to myself for retiring after almost 28 years with the Air Force. This was a 'milestone' that I really wanted to commemorate. That unrealistic expectation passed by. Then it was....well, maybe a Christmas present?? Nope. Not that year. OK, how about a birthday..... No, not for the 59th anyway. So, here we are and I just am not excited anymore. Perhaps I have just lost interest in the thing. So many have reported dissatisfaction (albeit very quick response to "make it right"...and one guy even got WAY more than....well, enough on that.) - I hope it (my interest, that is) revives when it does arrive! If it doesn't it will just be sent back unfired. I really do hope my eyes light up when I open the case.
