Should be getting better in the future! We are constantly growing our compacity and will continue to do so to decrease the lead times! Our lead times are true and we take great pride in making sure that we meet those. The last thing that we want to do is give you a lead time that we cannot meet!

Don't have a question just want to say thanks for having the weights on you website actually match the real world weight.
Of course! We preach what we have and will give you real specs! We are hunters and the most frustrating thing in the world is when products give the wrong weight! Appreciate the support and the chassis looks awesome!

I bought a chassis from you guys in spring 2020 and was quoted 8 weeks, it took 13.

Now your website shows 20-26 weeks lead time, how is that getting better?

We have grown an extreme amount since 2020. We are getting more efficient machines to speed up the machining process. With that being said, the 20-26 week lead time is largely due to magnesium supply. This has been a shortage all around the world and is not something that we can control. We had mag orders that were months late and that allowed the chassis orders to get piled up. No matter how much we expand our capacity, we need raw material to make the chassis. As of right now, the magnesium supply is supposed to be going back to normal soon which means we should be able to drop lead times. We will continue to work hard going forward to drop lead times as much as possible.

Can the folding stock adapter be installed to fold the stock to either side? I want it to cover the bolt side but web photos showing it swinging the other direction.

Yessir, all you have to do is loosen two screws, twist it, and tighten those two screws back up. They are super easy to swap whether you are wanting to cover the bolt or if you are left-handed!

I will, I have one of your envy pro chassis.
Will you have weight kits for sale at the show?

We probably won't be bringing any envy pro weight kits just because space will be limited and we do not want to have an empty booth by the end of the show. We will have a full rifle on display with the kit but not for sale stand-alone.

That will help me figure out what I need.
I look forward to speaking with you guys

While i sit here anxiously waiting for my 1st true chassis (4.0 mag) I ordered during Black Friday I can’t help but focus on my biggest concern I’ve always had. As I guess what you could consider a long range guy and mainly magnums, in fact this will be a mild 338 wildcat build going in it. I am a prone shooter if at all possible. In the field I pack the LW LRO wedge bag as it really works well with support and elevation adjustments. My fear is how well the carbon bag rider will perform. Have you ever considered making something between it and the tactical? Something thats light but would allow elevation adjustment by moving the bag forward or back and give could support. Hopefully I’m making sense. Maybe my fear with the LW carbon bag rider won’t be an issue. It’s just a drastic change for me. Thanks

I’ve considered picking up a 3d printer and trying to make my own….

I understand your concern and see where you are coming from! The carbon bag rider is about the perfect size to maintain a longer purchase point for contacting a bag but still keep the buttstock sleek. A longer bag rider on a hunting platform could be looked at as a negative though because it just gives another spot for trees or brush to get caught on when you are in that terrain. We haven't had anyone reach out to us that has felt like the bag rider is too small. I would run it when you get it and see what you think!

That is the plan. I’m hoping they are just over thinking it concerns and one that won’t actually be an issue. I also agree with it being an issue with size/snagging. I think it would have to be made into a shape/size that some how closes itself off to the butt stock in order to prevent it from being a giant hook. I’ve played around with a few ideas on paper. Thanks for the info. Looking forward to testing it out. My buddy ordered one to so we will be playing with a couple.
