ETD FOR TYLER T's
For those interested 30 days and counting. I believe they noted aprox. 21 days at time ordered. Picked up a pair from Robertsons on GB and they shipped next day. Sometimes you just have to pay for service.

Tyler T is notorious for long waits.
I believe that its days are longer
so if it has been 30 days, in Tyler's time
that is only 18 days.*
*Seasons are also different in Tyler's
world.

They'll deliver...worry not. Last one I ordered I had to wait just short of 10 weeks for it to arrive.

OP... I just filled my need for a T-Grip from GunsAmerica for my Nickel M-36... I think I paid $5 more but I'll receive it 5 times faster as well... Ebay has them too!!!

Try Robertsons
I did purchase my original pair from Robertsons on GB, I know they also sell on GA, they provide great service but since I intended on purchasing 2 more pair I checked Tyler T's site and saw they were out 3 weeks and decided to save the money. A mistake on my part as I am a impatient individual who enjoys good service. I could have lived with 3 weeks but 4-5 rubs me the wrong way. Next time I will pay the difference. Tylers is a great example of a poorly executed business model but that is the privilege of a business owner when you are the only game in town. I know there is a MFG. of a plastic adapter but that didn't do it for me and I really enjoy the feel of the magnas for the first time with Tylers. Tylers is leaving a ton of money on the table, also the business owners options.

My experience with them:
Quickest - 2 weeks.
Slowest - 6 months.
YMMV!

I agree totally! And as to the emboldened in red... I couldn't have said it better. They have a dinosaur business model that is reminiscent of an 1890's Sears & Roebuck Catalogue... I mean, to have to print out an order form, check boxes, and then mail it in with a check; come on! I tempted to give them some competition myself with a "very" similar product...

And imagine that... I ordered a Tyler T for my Nickel M36 @ about 9:15 last night on GunsAmerica. This morning at 9:47am I get a tracking number from the seller stating my T-Grip has shipped... I wouldn't waste any time ordering directly from "Tyler" unless you already have an order with them awaiting shipment.

Why not try BK Grip adaptor, see our classifieds. Cost less and nearly instant delivery. Lighter weight, great fit.

For as common as they are paired with a S&W revolver, S&W should buy them out and offer them as an accessory.

I ordered four pairs a year or two ago. Took about two months. I wasn't concerned. Went in with my eyes open and it was about what I expected. Everyone said lousy service, and that's exactly what I got. The adapters are fine. I'll buy again if I needed some.

Tyler is a great company with a great product. If you want the real original, they will deliver. If you are impatient and/or want to spend extra bucks, buy an imitation.
Nobody NEEDS to have one next day. No reason to complain if it takes months to deliver. If you are afraid your house will be broken in tomorrow, or if you have a world match to attend this weekend, you're probably too late to practice with it anyway.
Yeah, poor business model. You could say that about Gander and Herters as well. At least Tyler is still here.
