Grumpy's Toy Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Anyone no if Donnie is still backordered, or has he caught up with orders? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fireant Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 10 weeks out is what I was just told the other day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pensfan Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 I emailed Donnie yesterday to get an ETA on my order so I could start budgeting for the order when it is ready... he replied "At the rate I am going you can start picking up aluminum cans from the roadside to fund the bullets :-)" haha. So while not a true indicator of a timeline, I think it is safe to say he is still back ordered. He did go on to say that he is adding equipment to the shop to double production soon. So hopefully he is back up to speed soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueeyedme Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 I talked with Donnie yesterday. He is running a little behind with his regular monthly orders as well. I am certainly happy for him - I hope he is making a good living at this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
co-exprs Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 I placed a small order with them about 5 weeks ago and haven't seen them yet. It's ok. He said it would take a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbrconst Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Bayou double shipped me an order last week. Check classifieds in a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

21 shooter Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 I should have mine in about 8 more weeks. Donnie seems to be a super guy and has a good sense of humor. I ordered well ahead of running out so I'm okay for the short term. Lots of folks must like his bullets or he would not be so far behind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlockCanMan Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I ordered 11,000 rds from him. I received 9000 of them yesterday. I hope to have the rest some time this next week. I was originally told about an 8 week wait, but it took about 10 weeks to get it. Going to have to place another order soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carter300 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 My stash from Santa is getting low, looks like I better place an order also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldfrank Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 I got 1000 .38RN and 1000 .45 SWC in less than five weeks recently. I was actually expecting a longer wait. They are a little different color green and a little slipperier feeling, I hope the alligators aren't sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlockCanMan Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 I received the balance of my 11000 round order last week, and placed another 3000 round order on Friday, he told me he was down to a 6 week window at that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigGabe Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Placed a bullet order the middle of April, still waiting on 8000 of the 10000 I ordered. Hopefully I'm higher on the waiting list then I was 3 months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumtoc Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Spoke with Donnie today, still a bit behind but the good news is that he is setting up 2 new ovens (bakes the coating on the bullets). So his output should double in the next week or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waterfowl-widowmaker Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Anyone know how backed up he is now. Starting to run low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RePete Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 I think he's still running 8 - 10 weeks. I'm still waiting for our order. 4 weeks now. Not worried because I'll get them when they arrive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul-the new guy Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 I got 9mm's 135's in 3 weeks but it was only 1 case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillD Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 I've ordered 20K 180 gr .40's this year, they all were shipped about 2500 every 2-4 weeks. He's doing his damndest to meet orders for sure. And the neat part is I get a new color everytime he ships!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
