Maybe, wouldn't count on it.  I think fair value is $500-$600 on them.  Currently can still pick up on gunbroker and prob other vendors for less than $500...

Well, I ordered on 12/04, so it's been almost four weeks now.  But with holidays thrown in there.  I'm not in any big hurry.  I just want to know that they have one reserved for me.  Hearing they are sold out of them concerns me a bit.

I'd be concerned as well. Did they charge you for it? Did you check in on your PSA account to check the status or your junk mail for email from them? I ordered mine on 12/29 when they had 12 remaining and got the shipping label notice last night.

Try the AR15.com thread I posted a link to.  They seem to be replying to questions every couple of days.

Yes I think they are fine rifles and well worth $500.. I really enjoy shooting both of mine.

I paid $500 for mine before PSA started selling them. I do not regret it at all.
My low 1XX serial number makes it a collectible ;)

I bought one from them and they were super slow... I wish you luck and hope you get it soon.

Finally have it in hand!!  It actually delivered on 12/19.  No notice from PSA of the shipment, and no call from my FFL.  I guess everyone was too busy thinking about Xmas.

But I've got it now.  I'll spend some time with it tomm. then hopefully get it out to the range on Friday.  I don't even know where to begin!  One thing I did notice is that it's muzzle heavy.  It needs some weight added in the rear to balance things out.  That's probably a good thing, if I end up adding a different butt stock.

Yes maybe a butt-stock... Would you go for the bakelite or all wood?

Cool!! I hope it works as well as mine!

I would normally respond that I want synthetic as wood is too heavy.  But this thing is muzzle heavy.  And if I run a suppressor on it, it will be that much more so. 

I need to do some more research on the various stocks out there.  Do I want one that absorbs recoil?  Or folds?  Or has a cheek piece.  Or all of the above?  The wood won't do any of those.  So I'll probably end up with either using the folder and adding some weight somehow to that.  Or going with a Magpul stock and cheekpiece (cause it's what I'm used to and I like the look).  Or one of the various other choices. 

Anybody have good ideas for adding weight to the rear to counterbalance the weight forward?

Would some kind of wrap on the folding stock add any weight?? Some people wrap it in para-cord, but I'm sure that doesn't add much...

Take it out shooting and post your impressions.  I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.  It's a well-balanced rifle.

Yeah, maybe once you have a full 30 round magazine in it it should even out the weight..

Very smart.

Don't forget that Manitcore Arms will be providing some new options for us soon. You might want to wait a bit and see what Sven comes up with!
