On MR's website, there has been a notification next to their hunting line of packs for some time that says, "Coming soon direct, available at local retailers." Because of this, I left their site and and ordered a Pintler from opticsplanet.com on February 11. OP told me that there was a back order and to expect shipment in a few weeks. So it wasn't "available at local retailers." Grumble, I said. I assumed the entire hunting pack product line was backed up due to the new camo pattern and additional day packs MR just released. I LOVE Mystery Ranch and want the Pintler so I decided to work on my patience and wait it out. A few weeks? Okay sure. Meanwhile, my girlfriend got a new MR mountaineering pack around the same time, so I resigned myself to drooling at that while I wait for my new pack.
That was just about 2 months ago...
Last time I checked in with MR staff, I heard 2nd or 3rd week of March. It's now April. I have at least 1 backpacking trip this spring and an extended hunting trip this fall and want to get comfortable with my setup and physically prepared beforehand, but I'm beginning to think the pack is never coming. Does anyone have the skinny on when Mystery Ranch is replenishing their supply? I get that these are made in the Philippines, but a 2 month wait is crazy. Are they building these to order?!
Thanks for any info you may have.
