First off Greetings from Pennsylvania. I just received my gear up package and it took about that long. A 3 minute call to Springfield will let you know the status of your progress.

Yes, I called,Waited a couple of weeks then E-mailed, recieved a curt message like "not sent out yet" or some such.

So let me get this straight. You claim to be a lifelong customer of Springfield. But yet the very first time you do not get some "FREE" items from them in the time you deem appropriate you feel the best way to deal with it is to turn on Springfield and bash Springfield? And claim you have been scammed?
Since when in the history of Springfield Armory's existence have they ever "scammed" anyone? Try never!
It says in the promo it can take up to 8-12 weeks.
You obviously are not a lifelong customer of Springfield. If you were, you would not be taking the negative stance on some "FREE" items that Springfield is giving you that you do not have to pay for. Perhaps sell your Springfield, go buy your Sig and leave the forum.

well, if he were to die in (say) less than a week from today, and he bought at least 1 Springfield, then in that short amount of time, he was an owner of a Springfield.??
than he technically WAS a life long customer.

Well take a look at the situation. If any company gives free magazines and such with the purchase of a firearm, there will be a flood of purchases. Hence a longer wait time for the "FREE" items. As the orders increase, the wait time does also. Springfield is not scamming anyone on the Gear Up program. Be patient, they will deliver them in the order they were received.

Yep, my wife used to be the queen of rebates and coupons, we used to have a board in the office with copies of rebates she was waiting for. Rebates are often the slowest type of correspondence a company seems to do. I think most companies rebate department is comprised of one kid paid minimum wage after school.

i used to "poke fun" at my wife for clipping coupons. but years ago, when the kids were smaller and ate us outta house and home, she showed me how much she could buy with her "food allowance" she got weekly.
i of course, being the humble man that i was, i increased that money substantially, ($20 more, which was like a million dollars back then), and the kids and her ate like Kings and Queens.
i, being a long haul trucker, ate more roller dogs, and Suzy Q's, and pasghetti, then i could bravely eat.

You would think the rebate is run by the gub’ mint.

Everything is taking longer to get these days. Recently ordered mags from Springfield took about a month to get. Same with some Taurus mags I ordered. These were "in stock".
The gear up promo is nice, but I never bought something based on it. I always order extra mags regardless of what I buy. The gear up promotion can get here when it gets here.
