down with covid for the last 2 weeks.

[audiophil2]

I'm getting back slowly to work today.

On 6/20 my son got covid. I took care of him for a few days and then got it from him.

I am at 60% now and will be working on all the guns and mags starting this week. I am about 4 weeks behind. I have not taken on much work other than guns being sent here without asking. No big deal. In order to get caught up as fast as possible I am working on the easiest guns first. Please understand it is to get as much out as possible in the shortest time.

I have a hard time breathing. That and extreme headaches have kept me bedridden. No appetite, no taste, no smell. Because of this I have lost a lot of muscle. I am going to try to work 3-4 hours a day and slowly work more.

[Mesa Defense]

Damn sorry to read this. Prayers for your complete recovery soon.

[MJB]

Good luck!

[ojisan]

Get well soon!
It may take a while, be patient and go easy on yourself.

[Lockdown.-]

Sorry to hear about your health. **** the guns man, make sure you're 100% that's more important.

[Somuchguns]

Dam, I did not realize. Hope you get better soon phil

[TiggyTiger]

Get well soon, Phil!

[Maeali]

Get better! Health > guns.

Hey OP....Just so I can know how scared I need to be....how old and fat are you? Sorry if insensitive....gotta cut to the chase and keep the big guy 1st 🤪🤣🤣🤣

[Custodian]

Hi Phil, wishing you and your family well too. Thanks.

[the_tunaman]

Sorry to hear, and sounds like you got hit like we did with a little heavier impact.

Worse illness either my wife or I have ever had, but at least not hospitalized and recovered over time. Sounds like you are on the same path, and that is great to hear.

Take good care of yourself!

turned 48 after I recovered from covid. 178lbs. down from 250 in 2019.

I would have recovered quicker but I met a 34 yr old Thai girl that has made it her mission to wear me out.

[mr goodguy]

Praying for a complete recovery rest up well your body needs it

[Chevy2Nova]

Get Well Phil!

Is there a new possible ETA on orders? I had a JRA GALLANT sent over to be converted on 06/26 just wondering if there's any info on what to expect on waiting?

Good luck I ogot mine sent in in April no updates still lol

[itisagoodname]

Hope you're feeling better soon! Exactly what i went through as well. Had it at the end of July, early august and lost 20lbs. If you start to cough up funky colored mucous, get on some antibiotics ASAP before it goes full blown pneumonia.

Remaining cough, difficulty breathing, tiredness (not quite the exhaustion that was debilitating during the main course).

The inability to control body temp seems to have gone away. Taste started coming back after week 3 but still have an odd metallic taste in my mouth. Appetite comes back with a vengeance once you can taste food again.

[Aevus]

Feel better Phil! Hope your family is all A-OK!

[Garand Hunter]

Also praying for your full recovery ! Get Well.

Get well Phil.

If your GF has a twin sister, I got room for her in Flagstaff!

Hi Phil,

I ordered Shield Arms S15 combo pack (3 × gen 2 15 round magazines and a steel mag release for a glock 48) and had it shipped to you (put my name on top of your shipping address for easy reference). Soon after I got a USPS money order and mailed it to you.

Items were delivered. Called and left voice mail, email, and PM on calguns, but no return calls/ messages asking for an update or ETA.

I figured I'd post in your thread and try my luck in getting a response.

Thank you

[ir0nclash86]

New ETA on being backlogged?

[Eat Dirt]

Get Better Phil

You've got lots of friends here thinking about you
And of course , prayers help

[ir0nclash86]

Any updates

[GI Combat]

I learned the hard way from another one man firearms accessories vendor that you should never pay with a money order.

[ir0nclash86]

It's impossible to get a hold of you.
My name is Christian Cano I ordered a JRA GALLANT. My order is Flash hider removal, pistol grip removal, stock pinned, and mags converted. I don't want a grip wrap. It was delivered to you on 06/26. Haven't heard anything about what's going on other than being 4week back logged from this thread but it's month 3 now from your post. Can you pm with information. I've tried pming and emailing.

[CaliBoundAR15]

Has anyone heard anything from Phil lately? His website now goes to another vendor site and he's had two rifles for months now with no contact since July... Starting to think the worst. Might have to make the 5 hr drive to his shop to see what's going on in person....

[mooner760HD]

He posted in another thread that he is no longer taking orders, working through his backlog, and then retiring. He asked for customers to send him one PM and then be patient if I remember correctly.

He retired. Search his posts

Don't push too hard; I'm recovering too and pushing too hard tends to set me back rather than advance me. Prayers for your recovery, sir.

[GI Combat]

I would report him to the ATF and FBI for possible firearms theft. I think you guys have been more than patient with him and it’s now time for a different strategy.

[223556]

Speedy recovery to you and your son. Hopefully the rest of your family is ok.
