Does anyone have any current information as to what is going on there? I ordered a barreled action in May 2005 and have seen the promised dates slip away.
Should I cancel and buy a used Model 70 CRF, or are the Model 70's still worth $100,000 each?
Thanks

Steve E.Not sure but I think that is the outfit that is selling their action business. If so they may have put orders on hold or at least slowed down on them. You might want to check with someone that DOES know what he is talking about though.

Numerous Emails and some dates that slipped away. I don't think of them as liars but rather as having very serious problems. I'm not angry but they may not share everything with me. This situation is very sad.

If they have repeatedly failed to meet schedule and you can cancell your order then do so!!!
I have one of their actions and I like mine! But it's your time and money!

ryderGlad to hear you got it.Nothing worse then a long wait.They always seemed to a good Company in the past.Our local shop sells a few of them

BUCKMTThe wait is uncalled-for. If they can't deliver, they should say so.
I have a couple of their actions in the shop, and I like them too. One is on a 22-250, the other is in the box, a short stainless left hand action with magnum bolt face. I'd rather use their actions than any other in the price range. Just can't get 'em.
