It's not the one with the illuminated reticle. Knowing what had been going on with SWFA, I emailed them to get more information about a turn time. The person I have been dealing with in customer service is VERY friendly and helpful. I know she can't give me exact dates on anything, but she was nice enough to tell me where I am in line for the scope. I started off as number 76 in line for the 5-20 with no illumination. As of Oct 5 I was number 30 in line. She told me they just had a shipment come in. Based on everything else I've read in different places, it sounds like my scope will be in one of the next 2 deliveries. Seems to be moving relatively quick. </div></div>
Ok so if I'm understanding you correctly, you ordered a 5-20 last month? SWFA is telling you that they only have essentially 30 more back orders to fill to catch up to the 23rd of sept? I placed my order on June 20th, and a friend of mine placed one on June 21st. No scopes received. Were there just not as many orders as I thought ? Or have people actually been receiving 5-20 Non-Illuminated scopes ?? I remember early on before the dry spell seeing that a couple guys had received non-illuminateds but nothing recently.
If anyone has received a Non-illuminated scope recently, can they post the order date please ?
Thanks</div></div>
I'm June 6th if I remember right and I still have nothing. Non-Illum and 1-6x. I emailed SWFA back to see if I could find out what number on the list I am and here's the weird thing:
"For the 5-20 you are very close. Most likely the same is for the 1-6 however we are still waiting on those."
I get and hope I actually am close to the top of the 5-20, but if zero 1-6x have shipped, and there was the other promo's before the combo one, how am I anywhere close to the top of that list?
