Anyone received their Predators?

Sent another email to cancel my order today after hearing nothing from the 1st except the automated response. They did get back to me after today’s email and apologized for the wait and went ahead and canceled my order. So that should move someone else up on the list.
 
I was told They would be getting the platforms October 25th , there was an update yesterday , and I did get a response from a human. I think they are just having production problems. Its been hard to be patient , but I did get my saddle and it is awesome! Ive been waiting for everything else. I was told there was supposed to be a surplus of platforms when they get this order in. Im really hoping it comes this week because the next two weeks are prime time !
 
Received predator order #8507 9/14 never received a shipping notice, but glad its finally here.
 
I just got mine. It is nicely built and solid on the tree. Have to say I was disappointed when I took it in the house and put it on the scale. It is 55.3 ounces with supplied strap without adding any tape or paint. The website claims it is 44 ounces, to an ultralight backpacker like myself that is a huge difference!

I believer they’re claimed weight is for a medium. Is that what you got?

That was for the Gen 1 Predators. All the new ones were beefed up and weigh what yours did.

Then they should update their website! False advertising if you ask me. Considering canceling my order for a mantis and other stuff because I feel they are being dishonest!

The weight listed on the site is for the Gen1. The gen 2’s just started shipping a week or two ago. I agree the website needs updated and that will happen, but they are hardly being dishonest. Crazy busy more like it. All other accessories should be correct on listed weight.

It took this platform from being much lighter than the 2 I made to being the same weight at 4 times the cost! I am willing to pay for ounces but 11 ounces is huge to me, that’s the weight of my puffy and rain shell!

I've got a gen1 I'm willing to trade. Haven't had any trouble but I'd rather have the beefed up model.
 
Well Ernie sent me a message willing to switch it out and I appreciate that. I think I will have to deal with the extra weight as I killed 2 deer the first time it was in the woods so it already has the mojo! For one of the shots I had to put all my weight i to the side of the platform to push myself around the tree and it didn’t move at all. Really impressed.
