Waiting Times

[Klenchblaize]

No, not NHS related but rather the reality of purchasing kit that's manufactured abroad via a UK supplier:

Since an event in the past we are not seen as a big entity and therefore our trade status has been affected.
Unforeseen consequences of a protest vote I’m afraid.

Is that the Bifrost? For Which action?

 

[Donkey Basher]

For the 35 Whelen?

 

[Klenchblaize]

Yes. The intention was/is to get it shooting and all load development out the way ahead of dropping it into a Gary Cane custom fiddleback maypole stock.

Think you’ll be waiting a while for a Bifrost inlet for an M98… do they even make them still?

If it’s just for getting the rifle shooting, why not use the original stock? - or see if you can get a Boyd’s thumb hole laminate for it?

The stock has been paid for in full and order confirmed by not only 1967Spud as the retailer on this occasion but a;- the official UK Importer and b;- GRS. The issue, according to the manufacturer, is they won't Export until they have a bulk "order" from the UK Importer of a size that justifies the paperwork and their time/interest.

I only established this after persistent emailing of all concerned.

Clearly this carp customer service on a grand scale but neither GRS nor Highland Outdoors give a ....!
