just talked to a fellow about our timeframe for a full

custom revolver. He said he had called several custom gun guys and was quoted 18 months to 2 years minimum due to parts and barrel shortages.

We too have had to lengthen our timeframes to 8 months and that bothers me a bit but like the other guys, parts are extremely hard to get as are certain caliber barrels. Some guns that require us to send them out for special features like porting will take even a bit longer as I have no control over that.

Chemicals for our finishing work are way back ordered. Even Brownells has back ordered some of their own chemicals for our refinishing.

Since Trump got in office the gun business has gone crazy. As I have mentioned before on here, people are sending 6 to 8 guns in at a time to build into custom guns.One fellow has ordered 6 of our Outlaw revolvers. I posted a matched pair of them recently. Another good friend in Florida has 8 guns in here. Another in upstate NY has 6 guns in here and the list goes on.

Right now we are working on guns ordered late last fall and hope to finish them in the quoted 8 month timeframe. If your gun doesn't get there in the 8 month timefrane, hang in there. We are working as best as we can to get them out in that timeframe. We don't get paid until the guns are finished so we would like to see them finished also.
