Has only recently ordered one of these and received it? Just trying to figure out what the lead time is to receive one.

I ordered one a few yesrs ago. It took about two weeks to arrive in northwest Alaska. Every thing takes ten days to two weeks. Even Second Day shipping takes about five days.
The pin would not fit my previous Silverhawk but fits my new one. Tightens up the cylinder play well. I recommend one highly.

I sent my order in a month ago and haven't heard anything. Just wondering if that was normal.

Try emailing Kelye and make sure it was received. He may be working on a new batch but I'd check just to see.

I've got an order in too and the check hasn't been cashed either. The voice message says to allow a month

Sounds good. I sent an email because inquiring minds want to know.

It's a one man operation so I'd allow at least a month. On a positive note, I have two of them for my Ruger SBH Bisley Hunters and really like them. They are a cheap way to tighten up the cyl play and also the Keith that I have is much easier to grasp than the standard one.

I think it's debatable if this is a positive thing in a non-line bored gun, however. I have noticed no detrimental effects with my guns, however I don't run them hard or in high volume. It makes sense how the removal of cyl play on a gun that has imperfect barrel cyl alignment may hasten forcing cone erosion though.

I am not a gunsmith, so maybe someone more qualified can opine.

Mine came today in the mail. What a fine piece of craftsmanship. Worth the wait.
