We continually endeavor to drive leadtimes lower and return your slides back as fast as we can! We have gotten new processes in place to speed things up, and it has dramatically improved times for customers. However, we are going to leave the listed leadtimes at the extended timeframes below to set expectations before you order so we can have a goal to beat!
**LEAD TIMES**
CATEGORY 1: 3-4 Weeks
This includes Optic Cuts and Standard Porting, or any combination of the two with standard single color cerakote only or no coating.
CATEGORY 2: 4-6 Weeks
This includes Slim Comp and Hybrid Porting packages with Camo or Non-Standard color cerakote only or no coating.
CATEGORY 3: 6-8 Weeks
This includes EVERYTHING ELSE on the site not covered by Category 1 or Category 2 such as slide packages, tri-top, chamber tri-top, etc...
BLACK NITRIDE: 3-4 Weeks Additional Leadtime
If you select Black Nitride coating on any part of your order including slide or barrel or those parts individually, you will be adding this leadtime ON TOP OF the stated leadtime categories listed above.
We are a small business doing custom work. We are not a large corporation. We try to keep our lead times reasonable, but things do happen. Please be understanding of the fact that we are a small business doing custom work.
