Ordering spare mags that only require a rivet shouldn't be as time consuming and complicated as ordering custom rifles for the Canadian market. I'm sure they already have tons of surplus ones somewhere in China.

So at least there's that hope...

Got mine tonight!
 
Without mags the gun will be nothing more then a wall hanger.. All I want is 6 per rifle and some more early next year..
Not much point in me receiving my rifles if I don't get all my mags
No one can guarantee we will even see more mags???
Might be a deal breaker for me... Just sayin..
 
I got my rifle today and I didn't notice a single thing wrong with it. Internals are good. Totally worth the wait. I also got all 7 mags I ordered with the gun. Pre ordered early January 2017.
 
Mine had a few tooling marks inside the receiver, a couple dings in the wood, and the bolt carrier was dinged and scratched up (you’d have to look real close to see it). I can live with it. Other than that it was perfect.

My money says that, minus the custom-made receiver and barrel (and wood?), these rifles were built primarily out of surplus PLA parts, which explains scuffs, scratches and probably even the tooling (dremel) marks on the other poster's bolt/carrier - it looked like (perhaps) an arsenal re-fitting job at some point. Still ugly and needs to be exchanged of course, but it's a probable explanation for it.

That being said, it's totally cool if surplus parts were used. That's how CZ-858's were made too and they never had much wrong with them. Actually, proven surplus parts that work are probably better than new manufacture ones, even if they have light scuffs and scratches on them. If it worked for the PLA, it's bound to continue working...

;)
 
Nothing yesterday, nothing so far today. Odd of a shipping notice for most of us today? I'm thinking maybe 1%. It's not like any other promised timelines have been met :(

When I spoke to them yesterday I was assured that folders were being shipped "today and tomorrow".

Going by their previous statements this means another week at least...
