For the first time, ArmaLite can attend the SHOT Show with rifles in stock. The problem was resolved before the end of the December, but production couldn t be resumed because of our year-end shutdown to count inventory. Under the redrawn production plans, all orders in house should be delivered by end of March 2001. Demand for the rifle remains strong due to its inherent accuracy, reasonable price, and sophisticated design. The first Eagle Arms AR-10 rifles were shipped in December, and large shipments are scheduled for this month.
Orders are already in hand for both rifles.
All backorders for 20 round AR-10 magazine conversions have been shipped, and we have both 10 and 20 round magazines in stock. Our improved production and stockage levels mean improved availability for you. These letters change because they present the best available forecasts of production as currently planned. Any production delays naturally cause slippage. By the nature of long lead-time production, speedups are more rare than delays.
