Has there been any news on the 8.5" barrels coming in?
FYI...the rumors of Starline manufacturing 600K new 44 Automag brass in February must be spot on....SBR is now showing "in stock" ammo for both the hollow point and FMJ in 44 Automag. This is available for pre-order as of today and they expect shipping mid to late March. So the new brass from Starline must be either incoming or already rec'd by them.
Thanks to to whoever was doing the ammo/brass dance! My SBR ammo order is confirmed. I will be shooting my first 44 Auto Mag next month!

Would also like to know status
Got my ammo ordered from SBR. Hope I ordered enough…lol
The suspense and anticipation waiting for my 8.5 inch and Raven is much more than I thought it would be, especially since I’ve wanted an Auto Mag for over 40 plus years. Feel like a kid on Christmas Eve. LOL
This is gonna be awesome!!

Me too!!
Now if we can just find out that (or if) the 8.5” barrels have arrived from the supplier (fingers 🤞 crossed)

I feel you - I was exactly the same way for the same amount of time, and it IS worth it 🙂
I ordered a Raven back in late November. The promise was 60 days since 6.5" bbls were on hand. Anybody got theirs yet?
Spoke to Rob a few weeks ago and he mentioned they had supply issues with the bolt assembly and hoped to start shipping the Raven in March

Thanks,

My son ordered his in Feb 2018. He has since been completely understanding of the numerous challenges Patrick has faced—challenges a lesser man and a lesser company would not have been able to withstand. He should be towards the front of the line when deliveries do begin—hopefully this year?
I hope that Auto Mag can get things worked out for you guys that have been patiently waiting for your 8.5's & Ravens. It's odd that the Ravens seem to be delayed as they are only offered in 6.5" barrels at this time. I think the Raven was announced just after my order was placed for a High Polish 6.5" in late October 2021. Auto Mag said they had inventory of 6.5" barrels and my gun was delivered in mid February 2022. I'm thinking that the same 6.5" barrel is used in all variants but they apply different finishes based on the customer's order. I would think that Ravens should be shipping unless they ran out of the shorter barrels as well. It was mentioned that now there is a bolt supply issue so maybe that is what is holding up the Ravens (and potentially all orders).
My S/N is in the low 200's. Has anyone got a shipping notice or delivery in the last few days? Anyone with a S/N above 230?
@suddenfan I took delivery of my 6.5 inch in mid December with a serial number in the upper 200's
