So is this the same rifle you referred to on Nov. 8th as 2yrs, one month, 9days..? If so I'd say that's a far cry from three years. Just curious because I ordered mine in April of 2020.

So when you say you got your call....I'm not too familiar here...is that a call that Shiloh was starting your build or that your rifle was ready for shipment?

Shipment, also, Fed excise tax and shiping costs. If you ordered straight from them Id be suprised if you see it in under 20 months
