matt1215 0 #3 August 5, 2006 QuoteVery nice!! Thanks!! Been waiting 12 weeks and I want to jump it NOW. Unfortunately jumping it without canopies would be a very bad idea, and I don't think I'll have much luck getting it put together this weekend.

Mine should be ready in about 4 weeks, but maybe they just shipped it to the wrong address. I guess GMTA Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites matt1215 0 #7 August 6, 2006 Yes, GMTA!! They ran about 2 weeks late on mine, so might be more like 6 weeks. The wait's torture. Took it to the rigger today, hopefully I'll able to jump it next weekend. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Lindercles 0 #8 August 6, 2006 LA LA LA LA LA I can't hear you! Expected ship date on mine is August 9. My current reserve expires August 8. I'm not going to pay to get my current reserve repacked so it can't be late! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites yamtx73 0 #9 August 6, 2006 Mine was 2 weeks late too... but I don't mind because it's such a wonderful rig... you might consider renting gear for a couple weeks if yours is behind schedule as well...

Those things scare me. Go play. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites matt1215 0 #11 August 6, 2006 Sorry to bust your bubble there. Looks like you'll have to get repacked anyway if you're due Tuesday and not seeing the rig for another four six weeks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites matt1215 0 #12 August 6, 2006 Yeah, I suppose a jump rig is a little more dangerous than an Official Red Ryder Carbine-Action Two-Hundred-Shot Range Model Air Rifle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Lindercles 0 #13 August 6, 2006 Yeah, well, it's Saturday night and I've been drinking. When I said August, I really meant September. Expected ship date is September 9, current reserve due September 8. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites matt1215 0 #14 August 6, 2006 I made that assumption with the ship date and played smartass with your repack date. The last couple weeks waiting have really sucked, especially when gear already takes a l-o-n-g time to make. I have it and am very pleased with it thus far. You will be too.

With the price of rigs nowadays, you better hang onto it until the seams pop! Canopies come and go, but rigs damn near last forever. In a few years it'll be your extremely comfortable backup rig.____________________________________ I'm back in the USA!!
