Last Friday, I ordered some springs for my PM9, and they have not shipped them yet. Spoke to someone on the phone who said they had lots of orders and were just working on orders from the 23rd. I'm getting ticked. Am I over reacting?

Unless you paid for expedited shipping, I would say you might be overreacting a bit. Maybe they are low on parts or something? Or they very well could be swamped with orders as you were told. Who knows?

If you stand in front of your microwave and scream "Hurry up!!"
you might be impatient.

I do it all the time. Me and patience don't usually belong in the same sentence.

Ummmm, there are times when it's the same. Now, mind you, I only heard that from Old Man Jenkins. He blurts out the damnedest things.:o

I ordered some ammo from MAH Supplies today, and in less than 10 minutes I received confirmation of payment and a tracking number for shipping. The speed of it all blew me away, so I had to call to be sure I wasn't dreaming. Mike (owner) said they had been up late every night working at full tilt to fill orders from last week (Black Friday).

I caught them at the perfect time when they had just caught up, but were still in high gear to complete orders asap.

So, my guess is most suppliers are just now coming up for air from last week, and Kahr is no exception. I bet you can expect to hear something from them soon. Welcome to the holiday rush!

It wasn't Kahr. But I just got an email confirmation that it shipped today. So I will get over being mad and convince myself that I'll be a little more patient next time. Probably not though.

The older I get the less I can tolerate waiting for anything - LOL!

The online services I use are well stocked and priced.
But most of all FAST!

When I ordered four slid stop springs for my MK40 it was UPSP priority mail
and I had the spring in the gun in three days flat.

Lucky I guess...

I'll pay extra for second day air just to get it NOW when I'm in a mood.
That's pretty much any day that ends in a "Y"!
