Update from TOS about Geissele back orders:
Posted: Today 12:58:07 AM CST
Guys,
We are going to miss sending out about 13% of our BF orders. I expect most of them will be sent out in the next two weeks, all of them by the end of February.
I apologize that we did not send out all orders in 8 weeks. The response to BF was overwhelming and when stock ran out in literary hours after the sale started we figured we could complete stuff that was partially finished to give everybody a chance at a killer deal. Unfortunately, we were not able to complete everything due to multiple issues that had to do with anodizing of colors, miscalculation of what was actually on hand, our UV borescope breaking so we couldn’t complete Magnetic Particle inspection on proofed barrels and other things.
I will say that complaints about our Customer Service are not warranted. I have great teammates who have worked nights and weekends to try and handle the deluge of emails and phone calls. It was just impossible for them to keep up. I am proud of them.
For future sales we will have our website configured to take back orders that will only charge when the item ships.
If you have an order in with us and want to cancel it please let us know and we will happily do so. For those customers that are willing to bear with us a little longer all orders that go out starting Monday will have a 35% off coupon included with your gear or rifle.

Well I got a shipping confirmation from them.
I'll be interested to see if I made the cut for 35% off coupon. Honestly I'll be kind of pissed if I did not, we'll see.
Growing pains. He’s right, back order would have been the best way to handle, but seriously. Stuff happens in business.
You realize some people's orders were shipped and received in the time between people whining 4-6 weeks in, and now, right?
It's a waste of everybody's time and only makes matters worse to email them after 4 weeks (yeah people were doing that) asking where the stuff is. This does not change that
Bingo. Y'all agreed to an 8-week wait when you placed your orders; I don't have that problem because I didn't need anything from G this year, and my prior post was mocking the "it's been half the time I agreed to where's my crap" comments. Not sure why LSHD quoted me in that mix...

Personally, besides having the patience of Job, I got a great deal on the stuff I ordered on BF and it’s winter time here in Ohio, so not really that big of deal to *me*, but as usual YMMV. The main thing for me is, when I do get the stuff, I just hope it is right and to spec.

Same. If it's all kickass perfect when it arrives and I get a 35% coupon that's good for 6 months from receipt of said coupon, and covers basically everything that was on sale for BF (basically all the G branded stuff), I'm good. Being an election year, assuming things come back in stock in a couple or few months and I'm happy with the first wave of shit, I'll be using that coupon

I’d happily take over someone’s order if possible and I didn’t feel like I’d get screwed over. I’d be all about a super duty 11.5 upper and 35% off coupon. Knew I should’ve bought one.
