And just like that they have canceled my order because it is out of stock. Of course I got the confirmation of the order first.

That sucks. Don't be discouraged. All the trouble will be worth it the first time you get to run 30 rounds through it. Great feeling.

Second try through gunforall.com.

This time its a polish underfold for a few more dollars, but none of the extras. I won't believe anything until I get a shipping confirmation.

This likely means that I'll be putting something up for sale tonight in order to help fund this purchase.

Polish order went bust with a cancelation notice. The digital marketer in me is sick at the poor real time inventory system being used by all of the gun sale sites out there. They just should not list things for sale that arent available.

When they called me to say it was out of stock the "warehouse" had one they could sell me for an extra $130.
