This is all quite funny. I heard the same thing from then in 2011 when I attended. I started this thread for OSH 2012! Some things never change.

So, that's the latest.

That's extremely disappointing The Pmag has been a great innovation but the P200 has been a sad story with rolling delays and promises of "anytime soon" for the best part of 2 years. I have all the wiring in and am basically waiting for it to be released. If I have to revert to mags I am going to be VERY upset.....

Osh is 6 weeks out or so, thought it was time to wake up this old thread.

Anybody out there heard any scuttlebutt on the expected arrival date??

A bunch of Cardinal guys with the Dual-Mag O-360 have been holding their breath for E-mag's solution for that application... I've just finally settled on it being vaporware.

Sounds like a dive bar that used to be down the road from here that always had a sign out that said "Free beer tomorrow!"

A few months ago, Brad contacted people on "The List", that is those who have expressed a long-term interest. The news was that he was tooling up for production so I had rather hoped that a release announcement would be made at Oshkosh.........

We still live in hope

I stopped by the booth, picked up their sample and asked if they were ready to ship yet? The answer: "No but their in production"

Turning blue yet?
