Sold OUT: TYPE 81 LMG

Bren looks like a great addition to collection! But apples and oranges to T81 LMG really

Also most likely an RCMP error, we've had stuff pending inspection since Jan. 2018 and still not reviewed yet, that version of the Bren just recently came out. Pistols don't require inspections so looks like someone inadvertently classed it the way pistols get classed, just based on pictures and info via email and in a couple days vs a few years. Maybe someone new. Question is if RCMP would go back on classification (which would make them look bad) or not do anything to save face. Downside to pistol classifcation means it can never be non-restricted. Same reason why you couldn't put a stock and 18.5" barrel on glock and make it NR.

We also got an update from the factory, they made more phosphate versions then they originally said. There will be a small number on next shipment for those that missed their chance :)

Hi TI,

I didn't find the $25 wheel kit on your website, so wondering what will the drum mag look like in next shipment? Also, is there going to be any part kit? Thanks.

We might not have any extra left over the freebie giveaways, still need to tally the numbers. Drums will be the same as this shipment but now there is more accurate description and pictures on site so people won't feel gypped moving forward

Hey guys, just an update our shipping contractors made a big push this weekend, worked all 3 days and got a large amount done. They should be dropped off at CP and tracking updated over next few days!

We understand it is excruciating for those still waiting and we are doing everything we can, however we are at the mercy of the contractors. Everyone was caught off guard with how fast the shipment sold out, and they are limited with number of staff. Getting temporary staff sounds like a great idea, but going through the hiring, vetting and training process also takes time. This hiring process couldn't be rushed as security is our top priority. Significant inventories of arms is high risk of theft and a large scale theft would be disastrous not only for us but the industry as a whole. We'd fly some personnel out from the GTA to help if it wasn't for COVID and most of the staff here being high risk. Thank-you for your patience and understanding!

Can we get a rough estimate of how many orders are left to be shipped? If you can't divulge that info, can you give a percentage? Like are you 60% done, 75% etc? So we can continue to speculate roughly when they will be shipped. Most appreciated.

Hey TI, i sent an email to you guys last week in regards to getting some proper wheels for my drum mags, i have yet to receive a response. I know you guys are SUPER busy but i just wanted to ensure there was nothing else you need on my end in order to get the drum wheels.

Thanks!
 
So let's post some stats to figure out where orders are at. We know the low 8200's went out last week. And we also know there are approximately 8700 orders. So 500 left. It took them 4 weeks to do 500 orders. So if they are averaging 125 per week, we have 4 weeks worth left. Now they said they made a large dent in the shipping so if we say they did 1-2 weeks worth this weekend, I'd expect everyone to have shipping before the end of the month. Keep in mind this is all speculation and no confirmation from TI so treat it like a grain of salt. It will be obvious by the end of the week though if people post order numbers that received tracking. If we see high 8400's or low 8500's you can expect my assumptions to be fairly close. So for those that receive tracking please post order numbers. Thanks!

I'm 8228 and when I emailed to ask to cancel the order they said it was packed over the weekend and weren't sure if it had gone out yet. So don't think low 82XX orders went out last week. Looks more like this week.

Someone posted that 820x had received shipping confirmation last week.
