The 3-9 I ordered on 12-29 shows a tracking number, I went with the cheap shipping, I should be using Fedex, From what I have seen Fedex seems to do things faster and seem to show more care in your package condition.

The one I ordered 12/31 just shipped A 6x or 3-9? I ordered a 6x before 12/31. No word yet. I tend to keep a few spares, so NBD if it'll be awhile.

Word over on Rockslide is that there will be no more 6x's at all. I guess this is one model they're going to revamp/upgrade.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

For my part they could have the same capped but resetable turret set up as the 1-6's. Sorry to read that the 1-6 is going away.

I placed an order for the 6x42 back in November and received an odd email late yesterday from a lady saying that my card could not be processed. Sounds a little fishy and I thought it was a scam since they already tested my card when I ordered. Also, the email was from a woman that did not have the SWFA logo attached to it.
Maybe the 6x42 MQ are in stock, ready to ship and they lost my card number. I’m going to call them on Monday to find out what’s going on.

I went over to Rokslide to read the info referenced above and saw someone posted that backordered 6s are shipping so maybe you're in luck. I've received email responses with and without the logo so wouldn't take that as an indicator of illegitimacy.

Update-
I called SWFA this morning about my CC issue and got that straightened out. The lady I spoke with said that some
6x42 MQ scopes had arrived and orders/ backorders are in the process of being shipped.
I’m looking forward to giving the scope a try. It’s going on a hunting rifle, hopefully I won’t have an issue seeing the reticle during low light conditions.

They've owed me a 3-9 on warranty for over a year and it finally showed up the other day. Now I need to ship them one I toasted last year and try to get it replaced.

Bb Two failures? This has me concerned as I understood them to be pretty trouble free.
