Guys..

When Bill Ruger unveiled the Number 1 rifles in the late 1960s , the guns took a full year to be released in any quantity after they were first announced by Ruger to the Firearms press. 50 years later, that delay in getting the Number 1s to market has been long forgotten.


That delay was not "suspect" , it was just the normal time it takes a company who had never made such a rifle to work the.kinks out of production and get things ramped up.. My guess is Mr Imperato & Co were likewise smart enough to make customers wait a few extra 5(?) months rather than release a bunch of poorly made guns just to make impatient people happy.

Even if the early adopters run into some early design or QC issues , Henry is family run company in this for the long haul. The guns will be made to work one way or another.

And BTW - Jim in Idaho- good on you for providing the.update (and the upside)..
