Hey, Boxer.45:
We used to ship to everyone in our distribution channel at the same time, and we received a lot of feedback from international customers who were frustrated with how long it took for new releases to hit in their country. The delays were primarily due to shipping times and customs delays. We worked with our international distributors, held meetings with them, and discussed the issues at length here for a few years. Ultimately, we decided to ship international distribution orders first and then domestic orders a few weeks later. We recently changed the time in between to two weeks. The process is still in discussions here, and we'll continue to refine the program to be able to serve our customers (you) in the best way possible.
I only mentioned it because US customers mentioned ordering from European companies because they had them before US companies did. [I could have misunderstood I guess.]
Many firearm companies have release dates. If in fact theres only approximately a two week difference then why not just have a release date instead.
