You did some prior planning and the rest of us not in our comfort zone have yet to put any money down. Simple isn't it? Like figuring 21 X $2,500= $1,102,500.

I to understand that start up's sometimes have a few bumbs in the road. I don't mind the wait. I really think Tony is making big a mistake not communicating with the people that are financing his new business venture. (US!)
In Vegas, Tony told me he expected to sell 200 or so guns a year. At that time he told me he had sold "in the Thousands, and not 2000". He told me he had to buy another expensive (So many million$ machine) I think it is great... but I am mad that he hasn't communicated with his customers.... Not the way I thought he would do business. All he needs to do is tell everyone what is happening, no need to promise specific guns, just a general and frequent update of what is going on.
Still waiting for my prepaid RBL

2000 X $3000 average = 6,000,000 Not bad for start up money by Vegas show time last year.

Jerry See,now that is dangerously close to whinning and I hope we can all quit that before the true loyal fans who know how to plan ahead get offended by your suggestions.

Everyone has a different comfort zone. I'm not at all offended by whining......I just find it so unbecoming!

A lot of money, yes, but did you guys figure the cost of the machinery Tony has to buy. The labor of ? workers. Just remember that good things are worth waiting for.

You mean the guys who have actually been using their guns and who most likely could sell their (real) guns at a profit today. Sounds awful.

I realize that alot of you are anxious to get your guns and some are worried that they may never get one. If I had ordered one I would probably feel the same way. But if you think about it, the timing so far isn't that out of line. Kind of reminds me of the guy who buys stock and checks the prices every 10 minutes. My suggestion is ; stop thinking about it so much!
BTW: I didn't order one because I HATE choke tubes and I've got enough 20s. Fixed chokes and 16ga would probably change my mind.

The RGL is not even in the same league as the RBL, the LOP is to long the wood to metal fit is lousy, plain jane wood and for $500 more I could of had an RBL that was built according to my spec, LOP, DAC, DAH, beautiful figured wood, No Erik I wish I could get that one back.
All the best
