Not 100% sure, i know they are in the process of getting the first ones made, then they will need to be beta tested then sent back for production. Best bet would be to ask him, Shouldn't be too long i wouldn't think

Yeah I have Cody workin on your manis.....we have make a few refinements for even better fitment. Stay tuned. I know it's taking longer than anticipated, but will be worth the wait for sure.
BTW, in IM.....after HOURS on the flow bench Pete and I came to conclusion of what we needed runner wise out of this IM, and we could not make it in house. We outsourced the runner production, and are now waiting for our first batch to finish the unit.
