It generally stays around 8-10 weeks.

7-8 weeks for gloves, 12-14 weeks for pads. Thats what it was when I placed order in October, only now getting the pads.

It really depends where you order from. I ordered pads in early November and got them just before Christmas (8 week turnaround).

Someone explained how wait times work really well awhile ago. The gist was (from how I understood it) stores pay for a certain number of orders in a given turnaround time from each manufacturer (ie. they'll pay for x amount of orders to go through a 6-8 week turnaround time). If you're the 1st - xth order, you're set, but if you're the x+1 or above order, you'll likely have a longer wait time.

I'm surprised the 8600 Sr. C/A is only going to be 199.99 v.s. the 8800 pro at 439.99.

I've only had Itech and Vaughn C/As...my old school backup C/A makes me feel like I have a phone book strapped to my chest. Every shot feels off the stomach kills and every shot off the shoulder leaves my arm dangling numb after a shot. But that's only cuz my c/a is from the 90s though.

I posted a review on the V3 7500 C/A in the Equipment Reviews section if anyone wanted to take a look to see some features.

Just picked up a piar of V3 Pants for $170 brand new. I'd consider that an awesome deal. Hopefully my high school will let me play with black pants vs red.
