Is finally over… well maybe in a few weeks. Long ago, SilencerCo ran a deal, buy one get one free. I jumped on it, shelling out a few hundo for an Omega 30 and snagged a free Spectre. Received the Omega in August 2018 after about a 9 month wait. Just got the call… er sometime in May… that the Spectre is ready for pick up… but vacation starts in less than 2 weeks and I doubt I’ll be headed south of DFW anytime soon, so what’s a few more weeks or months

Have you received any updates from SilencerCo on your "free" Suppressor? I also hopped on that offer for a "free" Oktane 45 and have only received an in process notification back in February.

You have waaaay more patience than I do.

You have waaaay more patience than I do. Yep. Took them over a year to get me a serial number. Then the FFL kept using a defunct email account for over a year. It’s been a mess. Just one of those set it and forget it deals.

Also got the Octane 45 on this years (2021) deal. When I spoke with SiCo in May, he said those are in production so it shouldn’t be long. After my last freebie, I’ve learned to just wait…. Forever

That is a crazy long time to wait. I too got the same BOGO deal with a Omega 30 and an Octane 45. Like you, the Omega came at a reasonable time. I think that one was like a 9 month wait. Now the Octane took about a year and half. Still much better than your story.
I'm a dude who likes long barrels!
