This was the reply I got, looks like it could be a long wait....will most dealers refund your deposit if they are unable to obtain the item?
"Unfortunately, the German export authorities have not been issuing permits to ship goods of this nature outside of the European Union. As a result, the supply of X-Series, 226 LDC and P210 pistols and SSG rifles has been affected.
We do not currently have a timeline for the successful resolution to this problem. We are in regular contact with Sig Sauer in Germany, who is very motivated to resolve this matter as quickly as possible.
If you would like first crack at the LDC when it does arrive, I would suggest that you contact your local dealer and put one on pre-order. Many dealers already have orders in for this pistol and we will be filling whatever allotment we get on a first-come first-serve basis."
