Pee Wee #15785 Posted October 28, 2022 Author Share Posted October 28, 2022 They said they still had the back order, just that they have shipped all from this run. they can change their mind and run more.

Savvy Jack Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 It may be 18 months before the next backorder "yellow" is opened, but the backorder (44-40) for this last backorder batch has NOT been sent out yet...or at least mine has not been shipped. I was told my order was still in place a week ago and hopefully would be sipped soon. I ordered on Sept 5th while the order was still in the "yellow" as a backorder and the window closed, "red", less than 24 hours after I placed my order and has not been opened since... "green or yellow". Reports show that the previous backorders, prior to Sept 5th, was shipped and guys were getting their 44-40 orders in less than two weeks after they ordered. Sounds like I need to call and get a current confirmation.Green - available for purchase Yellow - available for backorder Red - NOT AVAILABLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next run in about 18 months I finally got a reply, Said that new employees miscalculated and allowed more orders than what brass was available. This was for my Sept 5th backorder. They said I could cancel the order but I said no, keep it there for the next available backorder. So now it is just a sit and wait situation.

Frontier Lone Rider Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 I guess this is one of those times that they say, "don't hold your breath". Luckily, I have plenty of brass but was ordering new to replace what gets lost and splits. As above, I will leave the Order on Back Order and just wait.

Savvy Jack Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Yeap, a bit disappointed that folks are able to buy it, then resell it on ebay rather than using it, while those of us that can use it can't get it unless we pay double to those that can. I am also disappointed in starline for not emailing those on the list that they ran out of brass....just left us hanging. Nothing but Greed and I spit in the face of those that do it. Same with primers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, as long as the yellow light is on you can get in on the tail end. Once the light goes red, your screwed for who knows how long. Green is in stock Yellow is back-order (or maybe low stock) Red is not available Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
