    Guys, keep in mind that since people were getting their emails today, somebody at Magpul was likely sitting in front of a computer all day working while you were sitting on the couch. Additionally keep in mind that everyone in Colorado effectively got pushed in front of other guys in the country who've been waiting for a heck of a lot longer than 4 days. Instead of getting snippy and impatient, try gratitude. If it takes a week, you should still be grateful.

    With regards to some people getting the email despite sending it after you, I'd suspect that there's a handful of guys working on this effort. If I was running this little program, I'd take a batch of emails and hand them out to each person on the team. If one guy runs through a hundred emails in the time that another does 25, little discrepancies are bound to pop up.

    Take a breath. You will get the email as soon as you get it. No sooner and no later.

    Got it and my post was meant in jest...

    Direct from "MAGPUL"/(Mr. Fitzpatrick):

    Hang in there. Due to the CO only group, we have to process all the information manually. This is a huge task, but necessary until we can have code written next week to put in an automated process.

    Our people are working all this weekend to process the Boulder Airlift requests.

    Call me a psychic, but I bet the price for ar mags at the lgs' in colorado are about to take a serious dip when they stop moving here in a few days once magpul starts shipping.

    lol, I was really curious how the Armslist community was going to react. PMAG prices have slowly been dropping over the past couple of weeks and seem to have stabilized at $25-$30 ea. I suspect that the guys who are trying to offload their extras for a quick profit are just going to toss them back in the safe.

    Of course, if the mag limit passes, you'll probably see the prices go back up to $100 (or $150, or $200, or $250...) each. It's somewhat surreal to think that if that happens, some folks could sell half of their stash and go out and buy a new truck...

    For those of you that have your orders in, once you get your tracking info, be sure to watch that. While I don't think anyone on these forums would do this, I know that there will be opportunists out there looking to steal things off of porches etc, especially with the market that exists for these items.

    Good idea, and it serves for *any* UPS/FedEx package almost. I'd get things delivered to my work, but that's smack dab in Denver (so it's a shipping no-no). I really like Amazon.com's Locker concept, where they're setting up shop in big-ticket places (Best Buy, Target, Grocery Stores, etc) where the packages are put into Lockers that only you have the digital key for, so you can pickup at will and not have your stuff stolen from your porch.
