They must have shipped in 2 batches. I ordered mine early afternoon and my friend in the evening. I received the tracking number the same day it was at the PO, my friend still did not receive anything.
 
That's funny you just said you wouldn't debate and then proceeded to lay out your case.

Your right I'm not a buisness owner. I'm a former soldier currently working two jobs at a factory getting paid 21.25/hr. After tax my take home pay per month is 2600. In my city a two bedroom apartment that isn't infested with roaches or rats is about 1800 per month. That leaves 800 left over to keep my car running, after school care, food, saving and, providing a worthwhile childhood to my daughter. I would add in taking care of myself but let's leave that out for arguments sake.

I work two SKILLED jobs. One is in fabrication running a variety of machinery some of which I was sent down to the US to do training for. The other job is operating a ballistics lab.

So if you wan a pay me 40$ an hour to lay flooring I'm on board. PM me I'll relocate whatever. I've expirence with hardwood and tile. Put your money where your mouth is because I sure as #### am ready to.

Join LiUNA. $33/hr is the general labourer rate. Easiest way to do it is to call up a unionized company and ask for a job, rather than go into the local union office. In other words, (and this isn't to gloat), I work unskilled general labour and make $33/hr take-home (before tax), close to $50/hr after benefits/pension + a 10% vacation pay. If you can't negotiate your own wage, for whatever reasons (no judgment, everyone's circumstances differ), bargain collectively. I don't know how this forum feels about unions, and I don't really care - I'm just presenting you a potentially beneficial opportunity (that's for you to decide). Don't listen to naysayers about unions; the dues are, on average, $30/month. There's an entry fee, and it's $1000, but if you get hired thru a company (just make some calls, they usually need people) rather than signing up at the union office itself, they'll just take it off your paycheque, which will be about double your current amount if you work 80-100 hours per 2 weeks (some of the positions are 10 hours before OT, some are 8, totally depends). $33 isn't the highest rate in the union. Concrete formers make closer to $40. You may join as an "apprentice," but probably not: I don't know your situation, but I'm assuming you have enough experience working to qualify for the full rate in whatever you're doing.

A flag person in my union makes what you make. Like, the guy who holds the STOP/SLOW signs for traffic.

If you get laid off in the winter, take the EI handout (tbh it's your money at the end of the day) and work cash. Eventually, you'll have seniority and you'll work the winter. Took me only two years to get enough seniority to have the winter layoff be optional.

Thank you for your service.

I had #12219 and it was delivered to the PO and is ready or pickup as of September 27, unfortunately I’m out of town until October 6
 
The mount and 2 extra mags will probably ship separate, the rifle comes with 2 mags in the box and there isn't room for more.

Mine came with 4 mags in the box with the rifle. There were 2 mags jammed into each recess in the box, which are designed to hold one mag. I got my Pic Mount and 5th mag in a heavy-duty postal envelope.
 
Got mine out today and the trigger had a mind of its own. Going to have to get it replaced or fixed.

It seemed that the trigger wouldn’t reset right? Sometimes the hammer would have a hang time where you feel
No resistance then the hammer would just drop. Some vids posted below


The grip seems to have loosened off and wiggle and the heat shield and moves which is audibly annoying.

Still is a great shooter once I get my issues taken care of.
