And here we see the oversensitivity that made me leave SH awhile ago and be cautious about asking anything as a newbie shooter. Sigh.
We're all fans, Frank. We're literally all posting about how excited we are about your book. Not a great sales pitch...
EDIT: Cover looks great. Excited to read it.

And let me address the "wound too tight' bullshit,
I want to see anyone of you all, build something from nothing, could be a site, could be the podcast, could be the book. Live with these projects for an extended period of time and then presenting it out there for people. In some cases for free, in other cases at a modest cost, but I will tell you up front, none of this is free.
Then have douchebags come into your house, and troll your efforts, or what they believe to be your efforts in a mocking fashion. Ha, Ha, look at that, why is it like that, I thought he didn't want that, but here it is...
Build something, and in the process invite people to heckle you while you are doing it. Then, if it's successful, watch the doors open up to everyone trying to knock you down so they can build it better, it's constant
Every platform, this constant bullshit, you think it's one or two, it's 100s of times.
and with the thinking its a sales pitch and about the money, wow

I'm in disbelief that this has went this way but whatever man.

I gotta ask, is the recoil pad on upside down for a reason? I'm sure there is a legit reason for it just like the bipod backwards thing, but I'm curious what that reason would be.
Lol,
maybe you can start a typo thread after, mix in some grammar corrections for additional fun,
you don’t get do you, I had nothing to do with the bipod, or the picture you saw, it was a stock photo from Gun digest used as a placeholder because they are required at the beginning of the year to hold the space.
this image is mine, and yes there is a reason, but if you think I am explaining it here, keeping digging though.

Thanks for taking the time to put it together. Looking forward to reading it and learning.
I get it, it’s just super annoying dealing with the same crap every day,
the fact I continue, and even work to improve what I offer should tell people all they really need to know, but even then many don’t get it. You’re too: fill in blank.
it’s not being “oversensitive” , the person making that comment admitted they can’t handle being anonymous and posting what could be a polarizing question. Imagine their sensitivity level getting close to 25 troll type responses everyday. Everything I put out is attacked for some reason or another. Too expensive rifle, too short a guy talking about it, too loud, too much swearing, wrong shoes, bad hat, why is your buttplate upside-down.
I laughed the other day, I posted the YouTube trigger control video, and before you could have watched it, I had two down votes. They had to subscribe to my channel to find it that fast, and they do it just so they can add they personal dislike to everything I do. I was adding a tag refreshed the page and there was more down votes than plus.
it was clearly an attempted gotcha comment, the fact I had to debate the publisher over the image makes it even more annoying because they fought me over it. I was not moving fast enough and wanted more edits so they were trying to get it out the door, so rather than shoot a new cover image, they wanted to use what they had. They liked the Amazon photo and never understood what the problem was. Clearly there were problems.
I asked to swap 5 images, they declined, so pointing out an image is relevant. If you want to use that as a gotcha as well, then like I said, put yourself out and show me how it’s done.

It's your house and I get that, but again for me personally I wasnt trying to have a "gotcha" moment at all. BUT as you've stated, you probably get a lot of shit like that on a daily basis that we never see. I read on here a lot and chime in very little, why in the hell would I try and start shit? Again, I thought it was funny and figured you had a reason. Didnt think it would be the straw that broke the camel's back so to speak and set you off towards me.
I hope folks recognize, Frank's book is no longer on his timeline. He likely had his own timeline for completion, submission, time for review, edits, etc. It is now in the hands of the publisher and while an author may be told certain dates and those dates are shared with the best of intentions (and likely the author is more eager to see his/her hard work get out to the readers), delays may occur that are outside the author's control, desire, and expectations. I have pre-ordered and am sure it will be an awesome resource for myself and many others.
My order appears to be just fine. I wonder if you possibly have a setting that cancels back orders if not filled in XX days
Ordering it now.
I was gonna say it will probably be a short book, but decided against it.
Under the radar, stay under the radar.
And no, that is not a short joke either.

Can someone post a screen shot of the canceled notice
If someone has a canceled book order non-Kindle that would be great to see too

Mine's for a hard copy and it's still still there, but it did change from preorder to not yet shipped and dropped from the first page to where it should be in the chronological order.
Must be a Kindle issue?
My book order is still valid From 2/23.

Can you suck the chrome off a trailer hitch?
My hard copy preorder arrived today. Woo hoo. I just had time to page through it but I really like what I see.
Thanks for your efforts, Frank.
Thanks for your efforts, Frank.
Kudos to Frank!
I received my copy from Amazon Monday and have read up through chapter twelve, I'm impressed!
Although I was convinced that Mil/Mil was the way to go, his chapter on wind calls settled any lingering questions I may have had.
Also, his instruction on setting up a new rifle was so purpose driven that I will probably take my RPR apart to make sure it is all adjusted properly then remount my scope as he explains.
