It will be done when it’s done.

Post by Randy Bohannon »

I ordered a 1877 rifle going on eight years ago it went into production Aug. 2021 ,I provided the Cecil Fredi English Walnut blank in which the forend was bad and Cecil replaced, I have no idea what the replaced forend looks like. Did my rifle get stuck on a shelf and forgotten ? Or is it still being worked on ? Just seems something is amiss with that amount of time, I could be wrong
I was informed the when the forend is being fitted it’s on a barreled action, I have bothered the ladies enough to no ‘ They haven’t sent it to us for packaging’ what else could hold up a rifle in production ?

Randy, congratulations on your new rifle. When you finally have it in your hands, I am positive it will exceed your expectations. I hope that it's fitted with an octagon barrel to commemorate the eight years of waiting.
Tim.
