Called x2 last week, to check on a pre-ordered rifle I paid for on 12/15. 1st time, I asked for the rep I had been working with, and was asked to call back later. 2nd time, I got VM, and left a message. I have not received a call back. I had paid a $300 deposit, shortly after the Mavericks were released, but I got a call from the rep on 12/15, saying that they had the Maverick VP, and were ready for full payment so they could prep & ship. I was also told the gun would ship the next week. I called about a week ago, to see if something unexpected had happened to delay the order. Confused as to why they would have me pay the balance on the $1600 order, not ship the gun for three weeks (and counting), and then blow me off when I call to get an update. I noticed another recent thread here, where similar problems have been experienced by others. It's looking like I may have to make the difficult decision to cancel the order, and start over with a vendor who is able to conduct business with a modicum of service.
