			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We are estimating a 6 month wait as the response for this stock has been amazing and we are receiving orders everyday. Your paid order puts you in the queue. We apologize for the long wait and hope to increase our ship volume in the near future.</p>
<p>You may be interested in a post that explains our history and where we are today:<br />
<a href="../shernic-gun-works-how-we-got-to-where-we-are/" target="_blank">http://sgworks.com/shernic-<wbr>gun-works-how-we-got-to-where-<wbr>we-are/</wbr></wbr></a><br />
and:<br />
<a href="../production-status-for-upper-hand-guard/" target="_blank">http://sgworks.com/production-<wbr>status-for-upper-hand-guard/</wbr></a></p>

<h2>Ship Schedule:</h2>
<p>The following schedule represents the <em>minimum</em> volume of stock kits we believe we can ship if our plans to increase our shipping volume do not materialize in the near future. We are very close to finalizing those plans and hopeful they are going to come together. We do expect to exceed the volume listed on the ship schedule, however, if our plans do not come together like we hope, we believe we can at least meet the following schedule:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I received my stock a few weeks ago. It assembled easily and I took it to the RK gun and knife show in Kansas City this past weekend to get 20 round magazines and a single point sling.  The reaction walking through the crowd was unreal.  I hope you receive a lot more orders. I let anyone that asked try it for size and that usually led to a &#8220;Is it for sale?&#8221;. I even had offers from people manning the tables.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>  I just received my kit in the mail and it was worth the wait. I had to file a little here and there and It definitely took a little bit of time for the first time assembly but once I took it to the range, wow is all I can say. This is a hole new animal. The accuracy is the same but having the weight in your shoulder makes this gun some much easier to carry and fire. I had a couple other SKS users at the range with multiple different after market stocks and they couldn&#8217;t believe how much better the gun felt and looked. I have tried 3 other stocks myself and they are all nothing compared to this.</div>
<div> Thank you for a great product at a great price.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here is a link to our last update: <a href="http://sgworks.com/update-8-23-11/">http://sgworks.com/update-8-23-11/</a></p>
<p>As was mentioned toward the end of our last post, we are very close to having everything in proper order regarding the proper funding for SGWorks. We had to slow down our shipping in order to pay for various fees and costs. This in turn caused us to fall short of our last posted shipping projection. We are still shipping, albeit slower than we were.</p>
<p>We hope before long to have all of the necessary information in order to post a revised shipping projection. At that point we will be able to catch up with our back orders as well as other projects.</p>
<p>We really appreciate you hanging in there with us very much.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong></strong>Regretfully, we have had to slow down on our shipping.</p>
<p>We received many more presales than we ever expected.  And on top of the additional costs of the stock, which are now accounted for in the stock kit price, the labor cost of  working to rapidly fulfill our back-orders far out paced the number of orders coming in. Additionally, we were opposed to advertising with such a long wait, neither could we develop our dealership program until we fulfilled our existing back orders.</p>
<p>Early on we were involved in preliminary talks which would have provided the finances necessary to carry SGWorks to a position of positive cash flow. Our inexperience in how these matters work, allowed us to believe our search was over and that in several weeks all the details would be taken care of and all would be well. The weeks turned into more weeks and before we knew it, months had gone by.</p>
<p>We finally realized we need to be moving forward in several directions until the goal is reached, no matter what we are being told. The deal is never done until the deal is done.</p>
<p>We are now moving forward toward completing the final details for proper financing. We’ve been heading toward this end for a while, and it was with the information we had regarding how long it would take, that we based our new shipping schedule. Unfortunately, like everything else we’ve done, we underestimated the time it would actually take for the process to be completed. The plan was to reduce shipping volume, in order to finance the various expenses involved in acquiring funding and afterwards we would increase the volume of assembly and shipping. We estimated within three months or so, we would catch up with our back orders as well as be well on our way with our next project.</p>
<p>We realize this has been a very rough ride for everyone involved. Being less than a small business, with the word “Gun” in our name, as well as working stiffs to boot, no one would touch us regarding financing in the traditional sense. The question became, can ordinary Americans with a dream, still build a business from nothing.</p>
<p>We are very sorry for the delay. We realize it is very disappointing. We also want you to know, we did not come this far from where we began to give up and quit. We have a dream of really making a difference in this country. If you ordered a stock(s), you will receive them. As our policy has always been, should you need a refund for any reason, please let us know.</p>
