It's almost like they have a LIFO (last in, first out) buffer instead of a FIFO (first in, first out).

If you gave them a credit card, check online for charges. When mine shipped, these things happened in this order:

1) Got an email from UPS with a tracking number (and unfortunately no starting address, so it's not clear it's from Tiberius)
2) The next day, a charge appeared on my credit card
3) A day or two later, I got an email saying my ticket was updated. When I checked, it had been changed from "RECEIVED" to "SHIPPED"

I'm assuming that's the problem, I did not give them a credit card at the time I submitted the ticket..presumably they need to get the info to ship, but I haven't been contacted.

Call Eric and give that to them. That caused my delay. They received it on Monday, got a voicemail by Wednesday saying it's ready to ship, but needed my credit card. Called back, gave the CC, then got it on Friday of the next week.

They contacted me for my CC info as well for shipping charge. I was #499 and was contacted just at the end of last week.

Guess they did go LIFO (last in, first out)

As long as I get the sexy one with minimal blems (and a front sight

) I'm happy!

Got mine back today ... wow quite a bit of difference. Trigger's lighter so I guess they did that spring change. Shot 3.5 mags on a powerlet, whereas it was about 2.5 mags before. I did seem to notice a significant increase in consistency also.

The only odd thing was, the safety vent didn't seem to do anything. I tried to set it, but maybe I didn't do it right. Must read the instructions again.

The gun itself is handsome, though the blemishing is fairly extensive. It looks basically like it has fingerprints on it all the time.

Got mine today also. Sexy!!

Only 2 pea sized blems in the anno and a front site. Woohoo

hmmm. I was hoping those were just finger prints as I didn't have a cloth to wipe it down with. Doh!
