Ehhhh I'd be twitching by now, that sucks, I haven't been waiting that long but I hope you get yours soon. I think it might be a long wait as these things trickle in.
Well November has come and gone still no pistol, still no review .
And December.

I should update all here as I did to ash when he contacted me earlier this week.
We have a CZ shipment inbound right now but unfortunately the Orange was not ready when it was sent out to us.
CZ have the required parts needed to finish building the Orange now so will be on the next shipment they send out to us. Now please bear in mind that they need to build up a big enough stack of product to justify all the work involved in shipping out to us.
I met with Petr and Ondrej from CZ over the last couple of months and got a much better insight into what is involved in the production and shipping of firearms out of the Czech Republic, and let's just say that there is a lot more going on than many of us understand (me included).
Maybe someday when I am not on days off and have time at work I should write up a piece on an inside look at CZ and international export if anyone is interested?
Thanks for the update.
When do you expect the next shipment?
A very valid question to which I do not have a good answer I am afraid.
CZ ship to us when the amount of product they have ready with all the export paperwork done and the military escort to the airport is in place.
There are too many variables. With that said, it will be a minimum of a month between shipments.
Thanks for the update. I think most of us realize you are at the mercy of a number of different actors. Only question I have is - if we put down a deposit, does that just give us a place in line or is it also a commitment to the MSRP at the time of deposit?
Place in line is guaranteed. Price we will have to look at very closely and as always we will be sticking to the price if at all possible. Due to the very extended wait for these and the obvious devaluation of the Canadian dollar against the greenback (yes, we do pay for CZ products in $USD) we may be forced to give some bad news but rest assured this will be a last resort. I think you all understand the position we are in and would like us to continue to be around in the future. I would like to re-assure you that a price increase would be a last resort and may not be needed.
