Component Suppliers Are Inudated With Orders
I just completed an order of a supply of sabots from Graf & Sons. Got this message in the checkout process.
Shipping Delays
Your business is very important to us.
Order volumes have increased and we are flooded with orders.
We are processing and shipping orders as fast as we can. Because of volume, we have limited some quantities.
We have hired additional staff and working 7 days a week, but unfortunately we’re now backed up 6+ weeks.
We are working hard to reduce that backlog and your order may very well go out sooner than projected.
You should receive an email from the shipper (FedEx or UPS) with tracking information once the order leaves our facility.
If your CC authorization has been dropped off, please be assured, we have not canceled your order.
We apologize for the delay but please be know we are working hard to get every order out as soon as possible.
We appreciate your patience and apologize for any inconvenience.
We have taken the backorder functionality off of the website. We will not take backorders on out of stock items (phone or website). This is a temporary change until further notice. All current backorders are in good standing and will not be canceled.

Everywhere I've looked is backed up now, some more than others. Grafs went from their site saying 2-3 weeks backed up to 6 weeks like the message you got literally overnight. Its chaos. I agree, great for the business. People gotta stock up for what may be the upcoming revolution!
