Not sure if it's getting worse due to their rising popularity or me returning my gun belt I ordered back on december 8th. (weeks before xmas) or both... I've ordered from them before & enjoy my Cloak tuck 2.0 & 3.0 holsters. Both orders were recieved within 2 weeks.
I've ordered my gun belt back in late November, was happy with the quality vs cost however I had to return it due to wrong size (my bad). fast forward 6 weeks (!) & still nada... I emailed them twice, I even contacted them personally by phone and all 3 times got the same response. backordered from supplier, recieving supplies every day, belts are given highest priority bla bla bla... will ship as soon as your belt is constructed... I'm seriously thinking about canceling the order but with my luck as soon as I do that the next morn I'l get the email saying it's ready to ship... So here I am... rant over :mad:

I bought two holsters from them a little over a year ago, took every bit of 3 months or maybe more IIRC, think its a pretty small outfit, with a high demand and growing. I contacted them one time during the process and never got a response, but they did finally arrive, and I did get a tracking number when it shipped.

Demand for their products has outstripped their ability to produce leading to long wait times. IMHO.

There are so many other makers that this should never be a problem..............I ordered from Cook's, who is one of the better known makers, and mine was custom. Took a week and a half.....................

I got similar service from CompTac and BladeTech.
