I reside in CT and ordered 2 new guns (Colts) from my dealer. Paid cash for them up front. I knew there would be a wait and that was ok. Since they were ordered in August, about 6 months ago, I wanted to see where I stood re an ETA. Not pushing, just wanted an approximation. I phoned Colt and they were obliging and willing to work with me, but needed the order numbers. When I asked my dealer for them, he passed me over to the distributor. When I asked the distributor for the order numbers, he flatly refused to give them to me. Is this normal.? Can anyone tell me why the distributor would want to prevent me from getting any kind of status/delivery information from Colt when I already paid for them.?
