Just got an email that my LH Tikka RS is shipping from Stockys to UM. Est 5 day delivery to Idaho (assuming no weather issues)

Great news for you. As a fellow left hander I am hoping mine is in the same production run.

From what I can tell, the process goes like this:

-Orders open for a batch and stay open until that batch is filled (this took 45 days for me)
-Batch fills, orders close, 120 day lead time email is sent, orders are placed at stockys
-120 day estimated lead time at stockys (mine was 76 days)
-Stockys finishes your stock, update email is sent saying your stock is on the way from stockys to unknown claiming 5 days shipping time (mine was 12 days)
-UM sends confirmation email letting you know they received the stock from stocky's. This step requires your confirmation about paint / mods before continuing
-UM does mods / rails / paint / etc
-UM ships to you

6. UM does mods / rails / paint / etc (2-3 weeks estimated)
7. UM ships to you

Let's hope not...
I ordered my last one 9/11/2025.
Got the email 1/15/26 saying Stocky's is starting.
I'd be looking at closer to 250 days from day of order if this is the case.

I let him pick the colors and do the “sponge”. Tough to let them do it sometimes. Overall I thought he did okay picking out colors that went decent together.

But I’m trying to decide if it is super gay and I get raped at camp, if it’s worth keeping the paint or starting over.

My son turned 18 yesterday. Letting him do imperfect work growing up was the hardest thing I did. I can tell you that I have no regrets about accepting anything he "screwed up" (read: didnt do my way) and nothing BUT regret for the times I told him (through my reactions and actions) that his effort wasn't good enough.

That stock is fantastic. It is probably the only one that will ever be customized for you by your progeny. The animals dont care, it wont impact your shooting, and your choices now will make you smile or flood you with regret long after he has moved on to his own life.

If your hunting "buddies" give you grief about it, you should consider new buddies. The efforts of a boy become the passions of a man, and effort will live on far longer in memory than results. "Men" mocking the efforts of a grade school boy are the detritus of masculinity and show themselves to be unremoved in maturity from the schoolboy they belittle.

Man, great comment. From a new father here, thanks for sharing your retrospection.
