And that is the kind of statement I like to hear. No fluff, no snarky comebacks, and no flogging of a product that isn't done yet......just fact. Your counterpart could learn something from you..
You know, we're so busy we hardly know what's going on anymore. I'm so stressed these days I could kick a baby.

We have so much on the go and this rifle is our priority. I know it doesn't seem like it at times, but I don't think most people understand what is involved in seeing a project like this through.. on top of trying to maintain inventory and sales through to our dealers on our existing line.
But we're committed to seeing this through. All things considered I think we're doing well and we're on track to provide a excellent end product. We're excited with what we have, our clients are as well. And we'd like to show our hand right away, but for many reasons we can't always do that.
Are we a little twitchy and on edge... hell yes. But we're doing the best we can.
The pictures submitted to Canadian Black Rifle Mag were from some images collected for a Law Enforcement sale and shows the configuration they are getting, hence the Aimpoint and tac Light. It is not a final commercial quality shot. It was "something" rather than nothing.. and often when we try and give an update we get hit with the negatives. Not criticism of the product, but in the manner it is delivered, the quality of the media, where it was released, how, etc, etc.. It is these reasons that every time we have something that we'd like to share as an update we struggle with it, trying to decide if it is worth the BS that will result just so we can update our customers.
I'm sure you can see why at times with all that we are doing and trying to provide why at times we come across a little rough. All we want to do is provide a great product at a great price. And we're sorry that every aspect of our work is not 100% to everyones liking. We spend our time in the shop and the office.. not on a camera.
Regardless, I hope this delivers a little insight at to where we are coming from and what we're trying to achieve. We welcome criticism of our products, it helps us produce a better item. We just don't have the time to defend the unimportant matters like camera angles or, whom we support outside of CGN.
That being said we have taken a new approach to our marketing department, and we hope that these new changes will solve a lot of these small issues.
