Just wondering were we are in terms of orders. Asking for a friend that may have an October order.

October slick side sets should be about 1-2 weeks out. October forward assist sets are approximately 5-7 weeks.

They are being made faster than ever before, but we ran out of uppers fulfilling the September orders and are currently making more.

Would it be reasonable to say Dec 2019 orders be out by September?

Feel like a butthead for asking, but any news on what preorder month we’re in? Just curious is all.

October is not done, but I think September is. Not sure if they are skipping months depending if it's slab or FA.

almost 7 weeks now since last update, a quick status on orders would be nice. 20ish if october F/A here.

Unfortunately but understandably I don't think they are going to be publically posting too many production updates given the current circumstances.

And I don't blame them one bit.

But but but,didn't they say they were going to keep on rocking?
So what's the diff?
These , among others are still being sold on the EE.

I've got one on order,but unfortunately I was on the last day of order,so an update is pretty much useless to me.
And i don't give a fuc who knows i got it.
I can't wait to get out and use it

So that confirms it they are skipping months and those with FA have to wait longer. As October is not done for those.

Slick side uppers were sold first, we only made F/A uppers after a number of requests. We sold more SS uppers than we made and had orders for dating back before F/A uppers were even offered, so felt that catching up on SS uppers was the right thing to do. The other part of the equation was that we were able to source the material for SS faster than the material for F/A uppers.
We are finished with the SS uppers, have been for a little while now so are balls to the wall making F/A uppers in order to get orders for them going out ASAP.
It is hard to fill orders when 1 of the parts has not been made yet. We only have so many guys and machines and are doing the best we canto make as many folks happy as possible.

Sorry if my comment sounded like complaining it was not it was just a statement of facts that things are not going out in order of sold month which from a previous post was alluded to when you said FA uppers were out of stock and you had SS(June 22 post) - so it was just confirmation to me of that fact, which makes sense you make what you have in hand.

Well that saves me an email.

Got a ball park estimate as to when some of the first orders of the F/A receivers from 2019 will be rolling out or should we just patiently await Q4?

We expect to start shipping out the remainder of run 3 F/A sets (Late September, October, November, December and January) in order of order date within the next 4 weeks. Our anodizer is closed for 2 weeks starting next week for annual vacation so as soon as they are back to work I will be taking a bunch of F/A uppers up for anodizing.

We do have some SS uppers in stock that are ready to go should anyone decide they want to change in order to get their set sooner.
Email us if you wish to change your order.
 
So tempting Rick, but I r already tried the SS.
Gotta hold out for the FA.

Unless someone wanted to trade..haha
 
Got my SS today! Ordered in December 2019. Fit and finish is awesome! Can’t wait to complete the built!! Woooooohoooo
