I though there was more to it, but I just refreshed my memory with reading the link from vladtepes
I interpreted it differently after reading you link and realizing thats why everyone uses Siagas and other variants, and not the original. Damn semantics.
I ended up speaking with him too be he also said he doesn't have an eta for them but offered to put me on a list for when the come in. He said s&w has been giving him the run around for them.
Has anyone else been successful in finding another retailer? I called G&R but they don't have an eta for when they will stock them and s&w wants $42 as previously posted. If possible a lower price will be ideal.
