Wednesday is the 15th, so I assume that the first shipments will be going out this week! i still have no charges on my card, and will probably get a shipping notice before I see charges, but I'm thinking I could have a Ranger II in my hands by the beginning of next week. Maybe? ;) Crossing my fingers. This is starting to feel real!

I'm planning to post a box-opening video to my YouTube channel Half-Cocked Reviews. Watch for it soon!

I know I am looking forward to getting mine.  No video for me though,no video camera. 8)

I will take mine home and try out the grips I have and see which I like best.
Then I will take mine to the range and see how well the ejector works and see if I need to polish the cylinder to make it easier to have them drop out.

Just remember that old saying: If you want time to pass quickly sign a note at the bank.....

Now we can add: If one wants to slow things up a bit: order a Ranger II

Yeah but it will be even better. Announcement is one thing. Having shipping notice or actually having it in hand will be much more exciting. At least for me.

Wow.  The end of a near two year wait is almost here.  what are we gonna do once we have our new Rangers, have fired and cleaned them, and put them to bed.  I can feel the silence now.  It will be deafening.

(Funny though, I can feel the beat of the drum of the next toy in the distance.  Jeese this gets expensive . . . )

It's only money...

When you get your Ranger II (or two of them) hold it in one hand and $500 in the other.
In which do you feel more love??

You may be right but you never know. Time will tell. I'm guessing it won't be as it has been the last few months but I'm sure there will still be some daily chatter.

Soon I to will be on to my next conquest on new guns to market..  Got my Trail
Blazer Life Card 22 already. Soon the Ranger 2.
I've got a Heizer Derringer set .223, 7.65X26 and 45/410.  Double Tap Derringer set in 45 and 900. I also  have  a Boberg XR9-S.25  Braverman Stinger pengun, 45 Downsizer WSP and a 45 Semmerling LM4  to name the unusual ones.
The Heizer PRO45 was to be my next pistol for my collection however I don't think it will make production this year. They are asking $1007.00.
Oh. The curse of being an addicted gun collector.

Today's the 15th. That's the exact middle of the month. :D :D :D

Should I just bring my Ranger II over then? :)

I'm lying, same here, heard nothing, but then as I haven't paid either there are few grounds for complaint. I thought when we saw the post about Buds Gunshop listing them they were on their way, but who knows - the day's not over yet :)

Yeah, it's going to be interesting if some of the online dealers have them marked as in-stock. My guess is that if they do, they won't last long and we probably won't see it.

The way the EB and production was described, it said the production would be equally split between the EB and distributors, therefore in theory, if for the sake of argument there were 50 that had gone to distributors, then 50 be available to ship to EB forum members. I know in practice that might be looking at it too literally and the real world isn't exactly like that, but at the same time it won't be an Early Bird if other people can buy them and get them before we do - or am I taking that too literally as well :)

Yeah, I'm guessing you're right on that. I expect distributors will be getting them at the same time that we early birds are getting them. It just makes sense.

Now I'm as anxious for the Ranger IIs just like everyone else but come on be patient already, it's not the middle of the month until midnight tonight? 😜

RogueTS1

It will come when it comes ..................... in the mean time there is plenty of time to work on other gun projects.  ;D

PS: I have just come up with a really good idea to start sometime after the new year begins. Will have to think up something really special for the Gun Fairy if I am going to get the proper gun and all the parts/accessories it will need.   ::)

That's it try and dash any hopes we had left :)

Actually I still think it's right on midnight, 15 days gone and 15 to go. Midday on the 16th would be halfway in a 31 day month.
