Thats good to hear, maybe I will order one. Does anyone know what limitations there are to the laser engravings on the opposite side? Can they do color laser engraving? Thanks

Thats cool, but no excuse why they can't stop in and let everyone know whats going on all at once. Actually it would probably save them quite a bit of time if they did that!

Thanks for passing that on.

It'd be real easy for them to post a quick update here, or, hell, if the lowers are finished, how about shipping to those of us who aren't ordering uppers?

As has been mentioned, a little communication can go a very long way... especially since they started this project on such a high note with being interactive on these boards...

What he said^^^ why hold onto the lot for a few when they could ship out the ones that didnt order matched sets?

First let me say I'm sorry for dropping the ball on this deal. I didn't do the best job of planning on this and you guys are experiencing some delays because of it. I am waiting for some uppers to get finished up so that they can go into anodize with the lowers. The machine that runs the uppers went down and screwed up the timing on a bunch of orders. The lowers are done being machined, have been prepped for anodizing and are just waiting for the uppers. I am going to go through the orders this week and any that are singles I will send off to anodize and at least get those to the people who ordered them. Again I sincerely apologize for the screw up on this, and not staying in better contact with you guys about the status of the project. Any of you that are considering canceling your order, please let me know as soon as possible as I don't want to send them in for a custom color if the order is going to be cancelled. I will be posting more regular updates as I have them.

Thank you.

Well, as I mentioned I can't complain too loudly since I haven't been charged yet. Glad to hear from you nonetheless... and looking forward to (hopefully) seeing some pics of the finished product (hint, hint), and to receiving mine soon!

ETA: WTF typing FAIL I had to edit this like five times to fix all the errors!!!

Most of them should be back from anodizing and starting to ship this weekend. April 28th.

I just got a UPS notice that mine shipped out today to the FFL. :mrgreen:

Keep your eyes open boys and girls. It looks like this is finally actually going to happen. Expect the Receiver Fairy to make a delivery to an FFL near you soon!
