Volkssturm was given tons of captured rifles, including enfields. As you stated you are closed down on more orders for the Kar, so I figured I'd see what your next projects were.

So what is your current status? Your web site indicates that everything is sold out. Are you still doing rifles? Thinking about it? Unsure if you can keep up? What gives? I get a ton of inquiries for bolt action conversions.
I can't even begin to think about competing with your pricing (It simply doesn't pencil out for me) so I refer folks to you and you aren't able to accomodate folks. I hope you ramp up and start cranking out orders as the community really needs the offerings. I know if your pricing was up you'd make less sales but at the same time it would be in sync with your production capability and make more financial sense for your time and effort. You do a great job on these and I hate to see you drop out of the marketplace.
I'm sure this has been a truly outstanding lesson in the trials and tribulations of home run businesses and are lessons that will serve you well throughout your life. Thanks for all your efforts.

Well I have a list of people I took orders from(my waiting list). At one point I stopped taking more orders as the list would just get too long.
So right now I am just taking the orders off the waiting list 2 at a time until I finish them all up. Right now I am working on Fusiliers order.
I have been turning a lot of people down but its silly to have a list I can't really keep up with. Already I am having people not respond because its taken so long to get to there order. I am thinking about just making them one at a time and posting them up on here, then first come first served, I am not sure though. For now back to the waiting list.......
2nd Bat, your signature says your incredibly slow but compared to me your speedy Gonzales ;D

I'm just old. My work takes me on the road frequently but between trips I can pretty much dedicate full time to production and I have a good shop. I sure hope you enjoy making them as you sure aren't making any money on them. Neither am I come to think of it! My wife says I should just work part time at MacDonalds.
I was seriously backordered on the shoty clips but just got a bunch in so now I can get caught up on orders.

How long would a real wood one take to make?

It really depends. I'd hope to be able to make one in 4 months but they have taken me up to a year to make.

It isn't a necro post as it is in the blackmarket section.
