Talked to Rob AND Patrick yesterday (1/22/25). Rob is working from home due to the weather, so nothing to update. Patrick said they are shut down for now. They have about 200 frames and most parts to assemble. Missing trigger/disconnector parts (I think…) but said he is working a source. Investors fell through, cold feet on litigation. Forced mediation is next. So, nothing solid and nothing happening (IMHO…) before July.
That will be over 3 years since I ordered my gun, paid in full.
Same situation for me. 3yrs, 5 months and counting.
Since Patrick states everything is shutdown for now, where does that leave anyone that wishes a refund?
I'm not intending on asking for one, but just curious.
If they are in possession of 200 frames & most associated parts, then, according to the list of buyers at the front of this website, I'd be in the running for one. Sure hope it pans out.
@gwassenberg ZERO comment on a refund. I’ve asked several times when we talked.
My same thinking on being inside 200 on ‘the list’ (ironically, autocorrect called it ‘the lost’…🤦🏻♂️)
FWIW there is a Classic Edition now listed on Gunbroker:

Here is a pic of the serial number. I do not know the seller….

All so if anyone is interested i have 350 or 400 rounds of ammo i purchase since i will NEVER have a automag pistol 8607946863 ask for john
@angel-carbajal Are you the guy that bought it at auction ? I bid on it, early.. the laid back , figured I’d get it for about 5500…. Boy , I was wrong ! Congrats ! I watched that the whole way through.. couldn’t believe it went for 13k and change
@pantera-mike The serial number CE-39, does that mean it was the 39th one made?
You would need to ask the Auto Mag people to be sure. But I assume the answer is yes.
Remember they made the first batch called the Founder’s Edition. I think there were originally supposed to be something like 100, but didn’t they only make 80-something? Others would likely know more.
After that they made the Classic Edition, of which yours is one. They were basically the same as the first run, although reportedly there were some minor engineering improvements. They also made some small number of Ravens, which had 6.5-inch barrels and were given a black finish (Cerakote or something similar?). I think the Ravens serial numbers ran in the same series as the Classic Editions? Could a Raven owner please confirm or deny?
I’ve never heard a definitive answer as to how many actual guns of each type have been produced. I also don’t know if all serial numbers were used, or if some were skipped. My son got one of the last, if not the very last Classic Edition guns to come out of the factory before production was halted (hopefully only temporarily), but his serial number is below CE-150, and I think there are many others whose numbers are higher than that? (Somebody please chime in if you have a 2XX or 3XX 94 higher number?)
