We have taken orders for both .300 BLK and 7.62x39. Originally when we went to place the purchase orders when this was released, we were told that production wasn't going to happen until the fall.. We have plenty of orders for them as we were placing stocking orders, not just "pre-orders", and we have not been able to submit
ANY Purchase Orders to the distributor as they have been refused. We have backorders for them, but are not allowed to place a PO for them as it would not be accepted, this is what we are being told from the distributor,
NOT the manufacturer.
So this is exactly what's starting to happen now... Because consumers are talking to the manufacturer, the retailer is talking to the distributor, and the distributor is talking to the manufacturer, also the retailer is talking to the consumer, about conversations that the retailer and the distributor had... about what the manufacturer said to the distributor.
Short version:
Wolverine has orders for both .300blk and 7.62x39 models including colours of each.... We have backorders, but do not have a an accepted PO for any backorder because it was refused by the distributor... Why you ask, couldn't tell ya..
I want them, have taken orders for them, and tried to purchase them.. Whatever is being said in other conversations is not my place to comment, I will comment only on what I know.
