Shiloh Rifle Forums

I ordered my 77 in February of 19 paid in full in August of 21 called in November of 22 they said it was ready for checkering Hopefully it will be ready soon

I was at the factory about 6 weeks ago and Kirk told me that the current build time, and I understood this to mean without any special features, was about 28 months from order. I'm sure that will vary a lot with special features but that's about the average.

Heck my first one took 4 years and I drove from Ohio to pick it up.

That is my plan to pick it up when done Big Timber is only a short 1300 mile from Missouri.

Finally have the pictures of my new Sharps.

William Goodman prays everyday that God protects Shiloh Sharps long backlogs - the longer, the better - he has created quite a clever cottage investment industry. I understand that the wait times at C. Sharps has increased substantially. With the recent (again substantial) pricing increases at both manufacturers and increasing backlogs of orders, guaranteed cashflow and Co. stability appears comfortable and sustainable. if attention to quality doesn’t get compromised, the future looks bright!

Very nice! But then I've never seen a Shiloh that I didn't like

Just got my letter and ordered end of March 2021 with 28" heavy oct.

How they go about building? Ordered mine February 2021 still no letter. Nothing fancy wood upgrade to semi fancy. Don’t get it??

Depends on Bbl typically. This batch is 30" and less heavy Oct. I saw that earlier over 30" was up on orders of the same date. There is also a difference if it is round barrel and possibly standard contours. Can't wait to see how long it takes for my 25# to get called up.

I was feeling slighted for a brief moment but I can now tell they are being very fair and it is just about were your particular Bbl combination fits into their batch process.

It’s officially 2 years today for my 74, still no letter yet…
Saddle rifle
26” heavy octagon
45-70
Steel shotgun plat3
Standard color case
Standard wood
Ebony tip and pistol grip
Sling swivels
W/ scope D&T

My March 2021 order letter showed up in April 2023 and is being built now. And as such I believe they are building 30" and less now. Your order may have just missed this batch. So I would think they will be doing over 30" next (and maybe rounds too) so it may be a 4 or 5 months more or less if I understand this stuff.

Best of luck,
Charles

Got my letter couple weeks ago mine was ordered February 2021. 32inch barrel. Starting mine buy end of month. 4 to 6 months to go.

Got the letter on my cabine back in October 22. Nearly 8 months now. Things are just slow right now, supplies still hard to get. But it'll be done right when it's done.
