Still waiting on my July order from Optics Planet with no updates... Is there any word on what is going on with supply?

As already discussed in this thread, the initial lot of ACROs were imported and released Aimpoint identified some issues they wanted to correct via inline changes.
Apparently those changes have been implemented to their satisfaction and they have brought in another batch.
Well, I received a replacement ACRO due to some debris that had gotten behind the sacrificial front lens on one of my sights. It's the new revision; no noticeably different tint on one hand, and the adjustment clicks are extremely positive, like clicking a decent dive watch bezel. The mounting pattern seems to have changed slightly, mostly for skeletonization, it seems. It's a much tighter fit on the recoil lug it seems, enough that I had thought that my adapter was going to need to be modified, but I just had to put some actual force into pushing it in place.
You can see the original mounting here:
Here's what I got in the mail today:

I just came back from five days of elk hunting in Montana. It was epic cold for October, down to -9F this morning without accounting for the wind. We also had multiple days of snow and wind to 50 mph. I carried a G45 lower with a 19 MOS upper and an Acro. I can’t imagine another available pistol that I would have used on this hunt.
What I didn’t do was shoot the Acro at anything or leave the pistol and optic out in the snow. However, I carried it ever day in a JM appendix holster, and the new battery did fine and the dot was always there when I looked at it.
Likes pretty much everything in every caliber.
