HDS NRA Blue Cerakote Group Buy Interest Thread

[nbp]

Glad you were able to get a response Nick.

I feel bad that I was not able to get in before the deadline. Maybe I can purchase it from Hogo when it becomes available.

Hey bud,

Sorry about that also. I think they were going to do a run of 10 or so lights, and I don't think all were claimed right away so there may still be 1 or 2 available once they are put together. I would definitely email Hogo about that and see if there will be an extra.

Hey Hogo, If I can add a regular black anodized 18650 Clicky body with flush button to this order, I'd like to do so please.

Copy and Paste update from other thread. I thought it may be relevant to our GB too. Hopefully it won't be much longer on the NRA's.

Re: HDS Second and Final 4000k Group Buy interest thread.

Small update direct from Hogo via email shared with permission here:

"I spent a week with Henry at shot show, mostly berating him for the unacceptable delay in this, and in other orders as well. He apparently listened and has been working on that delay since he got back. Quite honestly I expected [sic expect it] to be about two more months until they are ready. Quite honestly, I had [sic hate] to put a timeline on it because I've been so disappointed in the past with any timeline I get from HDS, as it never seems to be correct. I can say it is being worked on, and I'm on Henry's *** like stink on... Well, you get the idea. ..."

Like most peeps here, it's a lack of information that bothers me more than the delay. Due to the difficulties Hogo had had in motivating HDS to complete, he has voiced that this will be the last of the HDS groups buys from him. Without contracts or repercussions it can be frustratingly difficult to properly motivate and I have sympathy for Hogo more than anything else.

Cheers,
David​

To add a little:

"Please feel free to update CPF. The guys on the NRA blue run have been waiting even longer. I've seen those lights completed, except for one part that is causing the delay of everything." - Hogo

Seriously, all you need now is a White one!

EDIT: I forgot about the Forensic Blue, it looks bright!! Any chances you could do a Hyper Red Vs Forensic Blue night time beam shot? I am very curious.

 

[Tejasandre]

Very nice. Happy to see some of your orders fulfilled!

 

[Thud1023]

Thx guys!
Will do Str8, I'm also on the 4000k group buy, so will update pic when that comes through..

Good night! That is awesome! I can't wait to see if mine is in the mailbox!!

 

[Str8stroke]

Yes indeed! Thud and myself are whole!

I probably should have done a rotary like my Hyper Red, but I wanted to try a clicky. Still awesome.

:devil: Hehehehe

Yes, it is laser engraved at Chris Reeve's shop. It's cut to match the Raindrop Damascus blade.

For those of you that received a Forensic Blue LED is it safe to assume you also received the orange glasses as well?
