Model 1999 Montana Professional Hunter Action

Has anyone heard anything more on these. It seems that they thought they would have a working model by this time but I have not seen anything other than a prototype casting of the receiver which I saw in person a couple of years ago while in Montana for a visit.

What are your thoughts on the matter? According to their website they have only had 316 orders for them and I don't think that number has changed much over the last year. Are any of you who have ordered one of these losing your enthusiasum a bit like I am?

Red,
this has gone from 294 to 316 in the last couple months... They are expecting to have a couple protos at shot show (this weekend) and expect the numbers to shoot up...

if they dont get a move on, they'll be loosing more orders, including mine, as time goes on

Is this another one of those deals where you have to give them a few hundred bucks and then wait 5 years for your action?

What's the minimum order that will get them motivated? 500?

I've been waiting on their 223 size action for a couple of years now, but no goods delivered on that one as well. Why don't they just start building the darn things (Build them well) and hope for the best?

Heed the words of Winston Smith in Orwell's 1984:

"Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right."
