I pre-ordered also - I just checked and my order is listed and Backordered, processing. I did receive an email requiring a reply if I wanted to keep the order active about a month or so ago.
However, Cabelas does have a bad habit of putting items on sale and then cancelling orders. For that reason I usually only buy from them now if its a real good sale or I can't find the item elsewhere.
If it gets cancelled, I have narrowed my replacement down to about 10 different guns.....
