I just received word that due to the Ice Storms this year in Texas, there is now a material shortage (like everything else on earth, apparently) of the specialized urethane used for SPAS 12 parts - the buffers and shock absorbers specifically. I chose the polyurethane I selected very specifically and is still the only material I would use to protect my person SPAS 12's. The facility estimated being back up and running this year, obviously everyone is hoping for sooner rather
