[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Anyone "In the know" have an ETA for backordered SS10x42's from SWFA?

Posted: 9/6/2005 5:56:09 PM EDT

Just got an email saying the Super Sniper 10x scope I ordered was on backorder. Only timeframe they gave was "as soon as possible". I sent a follow-up email to prod for more details, but just in case they stay mum, I was wondering how fast SWFA's turnaround on these usually is.

I'm not in dire need of it, but I did order a fair bit in mounting hardware from LaRue to swap it back and forth with my EOtech and I'd hate to not have a scope to try it out with before we run out of warm weather.

Update: "We are expecting delivery any day now." was the reply. Glad to hear it, patience was never a strong virtue of mine

Great, I just ordered one today. What type of mounts/rings did you get for it?
I'm thinking the same thing to swap back and forth with an EOTech on my AR.

LaRue SPR to be exact. And the scope is now on a UPS truck on it's way to me

We just received a large Super Sniper shipment in today. All back ordered side focus models will be shipped out today.

Swapping between the SS and Eotech isn't such a bad idea. I was going to jump on the Aimpoint Magnifier band wagon when I realized (after a disappointing range session) 4 power magnification wasn't going to hack it at 500 yards.

I use ARMS #22H rings on the SS and a GG&G Accucam on the Eotech.

Each package works great !

Guess what came today

Here's it in it's alternate form:

Now I just need a Troy BUIS since my ARMS #40 won't fit...

And maybe a Tango Down grip.

And a magpul trigger guard...

And a LaRue 7" tube...

Damn I need a raise

Creeper, looks exactly like what I have planned! Thanks for the look into the future
