Kel-Tec RDB UPDATE: WE HAVE A FEW MORE AVAILABLE!

Are rifles in? Are they all sold out? I was thinking about paying $200 non-refundable deposit, but figured I will just buy them when rifles are in late February or early March.
 
No. They are not in.

We are still awaiting word on when the rifles will be in from the distributor, so far they have been unable to provide an updated ETA, the ball is in Kel-Tec's court currently. As soon as we have more information we will be posting. Thank you everyone for your patience.
 
C'mon RDB. You're my #1 horse in the pre-order race to get here first. Glock 19x is dead last. WX-180 is questionable. BCL-102 is going to place. C'mon RDB.
 
Just received this message on my phone a couple hours ago from another vendor. Hello......................you had a RDB on pre-order with us we have a truck out picking that up from the distributor right now should have it landed this afternoon, give me a call back when you have an opportunity.......

It appears the price has gone up from the distributor due to a more expensive heavier barrel being used. Well this should be interesting to see how individual retailers deal with this little snafu (Situation normal all ####ed up).

On a positive note, I'm glad they went with a heavier barrel, it should help with the accuracy issue of stringing shots vertically.
I hope it's 1 in 8" twist 223 Wylde !!!
 
Vault and keltec should be eating any extra costs, not the end consumer.

Not exactly, I did not have a contract to purchase the RDB at a defined price with either Keltec or Vault. It would appear the retailer entered into a pre-order contract with the end consumer with little more than a wink and nod from the distributor and the now the distributor (Vault) is playing hardball to recapture their increased cost. I have to ask, is this industry driven by drunk idiots at the supply side or consumer side?
 
Hopefully the dealers are able to honor their original pricing..... pre-sales have upsides and downsides I guess.

Taking a deposit for a product is entering into a contract in the eyes of the competition bureau. Can't help you with your drunk idiots question.

Regardless, it probably shouldn't be a very big increase.
