Well I got my shipping tube and instructions yesterday, along with the prepaid shipping label. I stripped down the barrel and took it and the Tang and have it bubble wrapped in the tube they sent. I expect I better enclose my barrel's serial number, my name, address, and phone number, to be on the save side.
I think someone here posted something about that it could take upwards of 6 months to get a new barrel and tang back. If so, I guess that puts me sometime in the September / October range (perhaps later even)?
Oh, I don't mind the inconvenience of it,,, I'd rather be safe then sorry,,, and I applaud Investment Arms for standing up and doing what's right.
