    If it is true, why wouldn't TI have just said so? Stupid.
    This is just getting so stupid just like CP tracking info.

    This would line up with what I had hypothesized on this thread a while ago. Think about it: why would they ship out only pre-ordered fixed stocks AND new orders of fixed stocks without sending out the pre-ordered folders? At my work, it takes two people 20 minutes max to unload the back of a full truck with a forklift and pallet jack, and those trucks are about half the size of a shipping container. So even if the folders were at the back of the container, that excuse doesn't hold water. The idea that a company that's so stingey that they won't bring in temporary labour to help offload the shipment (it's not like this was a surprise) would be willing to pay the lease on a shipping container for an extra 3 weeks kind of stretches credibility.

    At the end of the day, happy we'll be getting our rifles. It's been a long time, and many people have shown patience through all the delays, uncertainty, and lack of information. But this entire process has been very eye-opening regarding either TI's efficiency or honesty.
