I wish I was coyote hunting with one today.

NEA needs to be careful because they may risk actually making people mad at them for needless teasing and under-delivering.
It's one thing to advertise something coming to build interest, but you have to time it right to increase exposure for your brand.
They are now getting to the point where they risk a loss in brand value if they don't deliver soon.

I don't think they care. They've been dealing with haters and bad mouthing for so long doubtful much else will impact their profits more. It's probably already been factored in to pricing/strategy.
And seeing the language they're using, flat out in your face non PC verbage they are confident in their product and know their customers.
They have the market cornered. They're building hype.
I'd argue this is increasing their brand value.

My point is that there is a culminating point in building that hysteria, and beyond that point it becomes a net negative.
Clearly it would be too long if they released this gun in 2020, so the point becomes at what point is the right balance of building hype vs being a c•ck tease that p!sses people off.
My stance is that it's fine to tease the market in a healthy manner, but now that it is getting long in the tooth for today's short attention span, it is a detriment to make these things dwell on too long.

Well for timeline and updates, they are well ahead of many companies for providing information.
Indicated stocking up on inventory in advance of taking orders. That's huge difference
Indicate release is within a month or so. Starting like some companies that are YEARS into saying this.
Just PHUCKING with ya cause they can? Johnone sounds familiar, but several vendors here have a nonPC take on customer relationships.
And it's YOUR opinion they're going on too long. It's their money, their strategy and I'm guessing they're reading more feedback an just yours. If they're happy with the strategy power to em. Worked for JAWS, failed for CLOVERFIELD.
If they open the floodgates at the time they said , all water under the bridge. If they miss their announced targets, vilified by the villages.
I have a Bushmaster ACR inbound that's actually designed to work.
Let's all recall the "miracle gun" the XCR was supposed to be... And how it actually turned out...
