JThompson Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 (edited) I think they should call it the Titanic Express. Three months to get as friggn factory gun? Give me a break. If mine didn't come in on this shipment I'm telling them to forget it. I'll find something local. :angry2: Edited June 11, 2007 by JThompson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritinUSA Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Not wishing to contradict here but I'm guessing the reason for the delay is not with Tanfoglio, but rather with the importer who may only be ordering guns when they have a request from a customer, rather than keeping a ready supply on hand.

JThompson Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 At this point, I really don't care who is to blame... it's crazy to wait for months to get a factory gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skywalker Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 I'm not sure about this all, but I wold add that (normally) the biggest portion of waiting time for this kind of stuff is due to paperwork and burocracy, rather than shipping itself. I usually order once fired brass from your side of the pond and, although there is no restriction on this stuff either in your or my country, it still gets 2 months to land on my doormat. Sometimes it's just the nature of the beast ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. Believe the only actual importer is still European American Armory (EAA). They are better than they once were about customer service. Still a small outfit though.

Nemo Posted June 11, 2007 Author Share Posted June 11, 2007 Agreed. Believe the only actual importer is still European American Armory (EAA). They are better than they once were about customer service. Still a small outfit though. I agree with what's been said. However, every time Jax has called the answer has been "The ship should be here in two weeks". If you as a distribuitor didn't place the order until there was enough volume, then tell me that the wait will be 6 months, then maybe my decision process would be different. The two weeks answer is getting old... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulm540 Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 I was tempted to order one as the price is pretty attractive. I am glad I went with a fat free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasmap Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I guess I got lucky then. I ordered my Gold Team Open and had it in my hands in just a few days. That was several months ago though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nemo Posted June 15, 2007 Author Share Posted June 15, 2007 Well, finally the shipment got to the CONUS, and guess what? NOT A SINGLE 40SW GUN IN IT! My kids don't have their guns! Don't even wanna talk about this anymore. MODS PLEASE CLOSE THIS ONE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
