I’m trying to remember when these were being offered, was there a notify me to get on list and a prepaid option? If both were an option are any of the notify me being shipped….

I preordered mine at least two years ago without any payment and they contacted me last Thursday(?) for payment. Mine is out for delivery today.

2019? I don't remember exactly, but I ordered one as soon as I saw them, no money up front. I believe the order date was on the invoice that came with the action, but it's buried in the original box somewhere upstairs.
I ordered on their site and don't remember getting an e-mail confirmation, order number or anything of that nature. About the time other people were getting theirs - I tried to determine if I was still on the list but had no way to confirm. I had nothing and so I waited. Not too long after, I got a phone call from Marty. I think I was pretty early on the list because I've had mine for several months now. I posted here somewhere when it actually showed up.
NO SECOND ACTION was offered at the outset. Marty is doing that to offset the aggravation suffered by those who had ordered, which I feel was a magnanimous gesture.

I just went back through my e-mails - mine came in August of last year. Anybody on the list still should be getting close.
Just a note - the actions are tight. I believe they are holding tighter tolerances than the original, so maybe one or more of your barrels will lock up on you. Don't despair - it's an easy fix.

Picked it up this morning. Without measuring the width of the frame first I tried to slip it into my custom Brown Precision fiberglass thumbhole carbine stock and slightly cracked my right side stock ear. The frame is apparently a tad thicker than either of my original G1 frames as my stock was built to fit them very precisely. No worries, that stock was built and fitted for me back in the 80's. I just won't run it on that SSK frame. I'm sure it will fit any of my T/C handgun grips just fine. The trigger break is a consistent 3 lbs 10 oz. A tad higher than I had expected.
Also, there was no pre-order date on the invoice, only my recent order date of 1-15-24.

My T/C custom shop 18" lightweight 7-30 Waters carbine barrel locked up just fine. I will test the others soon.

I am still on the waiting list and there was no option to pre-pay when I placed the order.
