Well.... it's getting to be "late November" again and promised again like last November. Maybe it will show up eventually. The question is......could it be actually lost in transit and never to be ever seen again?

Can't believe this has dragged on for almost 2 years. Why didn't you just drive over to Scotland, put the rifle under the backseat of your car and drive home.......

Peace is that brief, quiet moment in history.......... when everybody stands around reloading.

Well... at least they are due for another lie I'd think. Do you have any insurance on it in case of loss in shipment? Maybe if you filled out the form and sent it in they would be encouraged to deliver it.
