Hoping to fall inside the purchase option, going to be close methinks with the number left.

Greedy! Curious as to how many have had emails and whose put the money where their mouth is.

Well there is 1 more. I just canceled my order. Called my local FFL:
- 10% to use their FFL for the transfer
- CA Sales tax 7.75%
- 11% "Newsome is an ass and CA legislature are Fascist" tax
- $38 background

Basically added another $400 to the cost. I'll just shoot my RH one ...

I have a lot of other stuff that I need to save money for. Honestly if you have a LH tikka laying around already, a custom barrel may cost about the same.

Still put my money where my mouth is. Hopefully they get here soon. Need to decide on scope, mounts, stock.

I noticed I got an email to say I needed to call them about a quote, but I’ve already given my credit card. Is this just auto reply or do I need to call?

And here I am in MI thinking a $50 FFL transfer is egregious…

This is why no one wants to help you, wrong-handed people... 240 people said they wanted one... Guess not

Is it possible to convert the tikka .223 into a 22arc? Reamer and open up bolt face?

I want one. I live in a place where we cannot have nice things ...

Only 120 people or thereabouts have got a link to order so far more than 6 months after sign up...so a 2/3s hit rate is probably better than most of you inferior handed people can do at 50 yards .

Gunbroker here they come. Lol.

The link has been sent out to over 200 emails.. Lefty's......

Well, never came to this person who signed up in the 120, so I stand corrected. Placed an order.

Well, in all fairness to us wrong-handed people, on 2/20/25, this is what was showing on the sign up link:



Also on 2/20/25, Jake posted that the price was going to be “a little higher” at $1,029, due to the custom SKU. I emailed UM that day and canceled my order. The next day, Jake posted that there were 148 emails on the list. I wonder how many of those 148 had signed up for a rifle that cost $879? Now, I am being told the actual cost is $1,079. If that is correct, the real cost, when tax on the extra $200 is added, is nearly 25% more than what a bunch of us signed up for. Do you think that might have had anything to do with anyone deciding not to order?

BTW - I would still order one of these from UM for $879.

No excuses… all mothers hate their left handed kids

Hey. Do we get positive feedback from making this buy. Trying to bolster my street cred
