Agreed, my patience level is very low. The last custom rifle I commissioned took 2+ years and that was from a local boutique maker. There are so many doubles out there currently for sale - Why wait??
Chris Sells did clarify this matter in posts 14 and 15 of this thread. There are a certain number of slots that Heym reserves for the American market every year. The current wait time for those in the US is roughly 18 months. So still a wait but not too bad.

Well if you order your AFrame bullets for reloading your new rifle you might have them both by the time it’s ready.

Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!

Hello. If you haven't already sold this rifle then I will purchase. Please advise. Thank you.

I doubt you are interested in any trades but I was getting ready to list a Sauer 404 3 barrel set in the 10-12 price range if your interested. It has the 404J, 30-06 and 6.5 Creedmoor barrel. Only the 30-06 had been shot and it has 7 rounds through it as I was working on breaking the barrel in. It also has both the synthetic thumbhole stock and somewhere between grade 3-5 non thumbhole stock
