Hey guys. Just updating. I have been holding off on sending the rest of the guns because I can get most of them done on Sunday. So when that happens I'm off to the post office.
Croft... I paint the tip with a masking agent so its easy to remove and then cover that in orange and I put latex over the trades just to be sure.

Alright. After a weekends work and lots of hours with resin and painting. The initial run is done.
I will be shipping througout the week. The US/UK orders are shipping by Tues/Wed, and the Canadian orders roughly the same time. Some should have it this week and the rest will have it by the 22nd. So that means the guys who have been waiting for a while will get theirs shipped first and etc etc.
Id like to say thanks for the people here for waiting for the gun. It's been a process indeed! Hopefully you'll like 'em!

Hi guys....
Good news and terrible news.
I have sent out 10 of the guns. BUT
On Satruday I had an accident at the shop and 9 of the guns got wrecked or completely destroyed. Basically I had the guns ready to ship and go, and a worker bumped a shelving unit that I put props on to dry when they're painted. All the guns fell to the concrete floor from 5 feet up, with a metal drying rack landing on top of them. I had 6 guns shipped and packaged, and the other 6 were ready butn not packaged.
I have been working like heck to get these guns finished for everyone, because with these 9 orders needing to be refunded, but it looks like I'm going into the red now. I can't work for a couple days as the air compressor needs to get fixed from the fall, (The shelf landed on the compressor), and my hand needs to get fixed too. Nothing serious just swelling. lol.
So I whole heartedly appologize to those who are still waiting after 6 months. Feel free to contact me with any questions or to chew me out. Either way I feel like I let you guys at COW down for this.
I will get the guns out in a week or two now, I just have to start all over from scratch.
Here's a pic of two of the more fixable guns:
I whole heartedly appologize for this, yet again, roadblock.
And some of the guns before shipping:
Again I appologize for the troubles once more.

lurch, I'll be PM'ing everyone that has shipped this week. I have to run back and get the tracking numbers. There is still 1 more COW member that I haven't PM'd.
The delay won't be too long, probably a week or two. I got into the goove making them, so once I can get a day free I can do the majority of the work.

sorry to hear the run of bad luck KN......i hope you heal up from your injuries.
i'm glad to see that folks here are more concerned about your well being than getting their order processed. truly a testiment to the great community that is here.
at least you can bandage your hand up like TOD and get SA at the movie premiere

Same city as me
KN lives in the same city as me and we spoke on the phone just before CS opened.
In case you haven't heard of it, the new NBC horror-ish series "Fear Itself"is shooting right in our back yard and KN is involved with that shoot.
Not to mention he had that toppling shelf disaster happen to him. I'm sure it's still all good for us to be getting our S&Ws, he's just likely VERY busy.

That's the last email I received from KN... and he said he will send out shipping emails soon. I hope it's within this week sometime... If everything goes well, I might receive mine around next week... Shipping to BC from Alberta shouldn't take long...It's cast and I'm just trimming it and finishing it up.
