<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: heatseekins</div><div class="ubbcode-body">When O was elected firs time industry went nuts, businesses (including ours) ramped up. Just about the time we ramped up it shut off like a light switch.. We were in a good position to ramp up regardless so it didn't matter. ALLOT of other companies went out of business when it slowed down. Your going to see the same trend this time but its going to be much, much worse. Everyone is buying everything they need for a few years. So after you have all the AR parts you think you need then what do you buy? If we were to ramp up to produce at the rate we would need to so we could fill the demand right now we would be out of business when everyone calms down..
Just to give you a little idea, we did well over 2x the amount of sales in December that we did the other 11 months in 2012..and we doubled 11's business by June...No one could have prepared or predicted this and its not easy to control
We will be fair with the orders. No one is getting all of our production. Its spread around evenly and fairly. We will ship as fair as we can.
As a manufacture that actually makes products under the same roof we are in a pretty good position to supply our orders. Right now, it doesn't mater if you have a standard upper, iRMT upper, lower or a screw for a set of scope rings on order. Its going to ship....when it ships
We were almost caught up on uppers and when we swap back to making everything at the same time you will get them all within a week or two of each other.
I don't have any eta's for anything right now. Especially anything requiring extra NFA paperwork. The ATF was overly busy before, they prolly just tossed their hands up and said screw it the last few weeks...
<span style="color: #FF0000">We are so overwhelmed all the forgings are going to distributors. Will post when we ship to them. </span>
308... I got nothing right now. We are focused on current orders and when I get a chance I will get to build my prototypes.. Don't know when just yet but I'm ready to build..
I'm off to the shot show so I won't be on here much for a week. Hold down the fort
Booth 20013 if your there! </div></div>
Thank you Glen...good thing you do all of your forgings in house!
I am thinking about getting a 3rd Lower!
