I picked up two for $1040 total with tax from AJI Sporting Goods (Apachee Junction, AZ). They had a booth at the Phoenix gun show last week. I love those guys and gals. Their customer service is great.

Looked on Classic Arms' website last night and saw the regular Draco as "IN STOCK: YES"
So I registered with their website, spent a few minutes arguing with the wife.... And ordered one. 11ish AM this morning and I get an email from "<>".... Cause I'm supposed to know who the hell that is. Could be spam/phishing for all I know. Saying that a change to my order has taken place. It says "Sold Out", so I think that they must have sold out last night while no one was there to tell the computer not to take anymore orders. That's okay. So I call to verify that my order was cancelled and inquire about the inventory... And the following conversation takes place. Her. Classic Arms Me. Hello, I am calling because of an email I got about my order being cancelled. Pause Pause Me. It was for a Draco Pistol. Her. Oh yeah, those are GOOOONNNEEE. Me. Okay...... Well, just to let you know, your website still says you have them in stock. Her. But they're not in stock. Me. SIGH. I know.... I am just letting you know that your website says "in stock". Her. But they're not... Me. Okay, Thank You. Wow, I guess being treated like a dumbass is what I get for questioning a poorly written email from a company that I pay for a product they claimed to have in stock. So... If anyone else sees their listing as in stock, it is wrong.... And when I checked a few minutes ago, it still says in stock. |

Then there is blood in the water and you let the sharks frenzy until the price is at the top breaking point... then you flood the market hard and fast and make all yours sales before the price goes down. |

Salty wardog,
I had about the same experience yesterday with that in-stock cart also. I was all excited until they notified me of it not being available. |

The lady who answers the phone at Classic is a bit gruff.. However, she seems to do a good job at what she does.

Classic Arms CS Lets discuss their CS in this thread above and make sure we stay on track regarding prices/availability please. |

I believe the standard Draco barrel length is 11.5" where did you see 10.5?

The standard is 11.5" on the "C" and Non "C" models.
Draco Specs We had folks chime in a while back and the consensus was 11.5", thus reflecting my post on the first page of the "Specs" thread. |

We had a thread on here at the inception of this forum where a few folks removed the barrels to take measurements, hence the final consensus was 11.5".
If you guys want to discuss the barrel length further please discuss it in the "Specs" thread.  |

I picked up two Mini Dracos at Loudoun Guns in Leesburg, VA for $560 each. They are both likely to become SBRs, I have one in process right now, and can't wait to get it up and going.
