Yea man i like it alot. its a good size and shoots nice. When you say order another, did you mean you already have a scout? if so how you liking it compared to your pocket predator?
 
Sucks about Greybush. I would have never thought that in a million years. Of course, I didn't think Thrillbilly would have done that either. Ya just never know...
 
Well, they just stocked local streams with rainbows yesterday.
With the flashfloods we had this morning, those fish are probably in Alabama now. :(

It's a different one. Called a "Wasp Be Gone". Small, which is what I was after. Have shot the Pocket Predator a few times. I like it, but I'm wanting to make a catch box. 3/8" ballbearings get expensive fast. I did see that Fastenall has 250 for about $6 though.

I totally agree that it's way too long to wait without any word or explanation. Posts, emails, calls, etc. only take up a few minutes.

A few months ago I purchased a knife from Greybush.
Long story short...it took 3-4 weeks to recieve it.
However, in my case, he did stay in contact and assured me he'd get the knife out.
It seemed like he just kept forgetting to ship. I had to contact him a few times for friendly reminders.
He ended up hooking me up with some extra gear to make up for the waiting.
It's very nerve racking and frustrating to have to wait on someone to ship.
Especially since funds have already been sent out!
I know life happens, stuff happens...but these transactions need to be taken seriously and dealt with in a timely manner.
There is no excuse in my mind to hold onto something that someone has already paid for.
If sh!% happens- contact the purchasers or send their money back. Period. Do the right thing.
This is a buisiness transaction and needs to treated as such!
Looking back on it, I should have left negative feedback for the deal.
That's what the feedback section is for. You need to have trust in who you're dealing with.
But I figured, Hey sh!% happens, it's Greybush and he's still a good dude and he hooked me up with some cool stuff.
I hate to see other Beckerheads dealing with this!
I hope you guys get your stuff soon.
 
Just got my SS in. Here it is compared to the Pocket Predator. Really cool little item:

On a side note, I picked up this little "spork" for my wife. I was looking for something smallish for her backpacking espresso kit:

Dubs, that Spork thing looks dandy. Gonna look into them. You take any more hikes with your MAP lately?
 
I will neither confirm nor deny the current state of my cheeks.

It is pretty cool. The spoon is way bigger than I thought, but I like it. Going to take the MAP out next weekend. The weather is supposed to be a nice 47-48° where we're going. Should be fun.
 
Got my Esee 3 the other day.
I really like it! Nice size.
If anyone is interested in the leather sheath, let me know.
I've got Azwelke Kydex on the way.

Dubz, exactly which slingshot models are those? Is the little one a custom? I'm starting to feel the craving...

The one on the left is a Pocket Predator Hathcock, and the one on the right is a Yo Slingshots WBG (Wasp Be Gone). They make them as you order usually. I had to wait a bit, but not too long.
 
Bill Hayes, the maker of the Pocket Predator line, is a master at slingshots. Here's a video of him splitting a card at 50':
