I called today to order my first complete LaRue rifle (16" PredatAR). I have plenty of other LaRue stuff for my old RRA, but I've been wanting a complete rifle for awhile now. Well, I sent the RRA down the road so I could get the green light from the Mrs. to order a new rifle. I called and spoke with Will and couldn't have had a better experience. Great guy, easy to talk to, and answered all of my questions. Being behind the lines in NY, I had to change my rifle to make it work with our in state AWB. He made the whole call a breeze. Please thank him for me.

Okay, one thing that irks me about the rifles you guys make... Ambi-controls, to include bolt release. I love the fact that the M110's have it, and when I spec'd my OBR I set it up pretty similar to how my M110 was ran. I just hate the fact that I can't push a lever with my trigger finger to release the bolt. Add that and it's got everything I want!!

My new LaRue Tactical handguard is absolutely stunning! The fit and finish is second to NONE! It matches up perfect with my Spikes Tactical Lower and Upper; it actually makes me wish I had gone with LaRue Receivers!
Not only is the handguard perfect, but LaRue Tactical is old school customer service! The shipping was fast, the packaging was perfect, and they threw in some extra goodies! They made me remember I was the customer! Mark and his crew are top-notch! They’ve got my business hands down! Semper Paratus! TP |

I ordered my OBR a few days ago, and customer service was outstanding as usual. the only reason that Household 6 approved funding this purchase, is that she read about what LaRue has done for military members. The 10% military discount helped too.

Reasons being, weight, cost of ammo and not having to buy another caliber of ammo. That out of the way, I am sure that you'd be happy with any rifle from LaRue. Honestly, the biggest thing that I have from them are optic mounts and I can't get over how well made THEY are. So my, lackluster advice out of the way...welcome to the site. ![]() |

Ordered my OBR 5.56 and had it a couple of weeks later. Their customer service is awesome. When I got my rifle, it didn’t come with the OBR owner’s hat! I emailed them to ask if they would add one to another order I was waiting on, which they did and did so free of charge. I wasn’t expecting that but it was a great gesture.
They have great products and the OBR is a great rifle. The 416 and SCAR have nothing on it imo. Plus, neither of them come with Dillo Dust. That @#$% is good. |

Is there a way to order custom Dillos, say for fundraising, or EMS agency support?

One more extremely satisfied (REPEAT) customer here. My 16/13.2 Stealth came in this afternoon. Just a little too late for me to ditch work and skip out to the range (but that's UPS' fault, not LT's).
The fit and finish are outstanding! I literally needed a mallet to get the upper to seat into my S&W lower (not to worry, I have plans for a LT lower in the not-so-near-but-not-so-distant future), and once I got it seated, the damned thing became the definition of ROCK SOLID, IMHO... My only question (and I'm not complaining, mind you) is, once the 10-round test fire was complete, how long did it get dunked in the CLP tank before it got packaged up? I'm going to be able to use my gun rag as a lubricating rag for quite some time now, it's almost to the point of dripping...
Oh, and if you folks ever decide to go into the air freshener business, whatever oil it was that you used, that should be the first scent in the line... Go ahead and put me down for a case... |

1st LaRue purchase... brown truck of happiness just dropped it off.
It wasn't exactly an order that Mark would stake the company's survival on, I mean... index clips, a dillo (I gave my NRA Annual Meeting dillo away - share the love!) and a sling swivel. Cool stuff, to be sure (index clips are my favorite "rail dressing") but not exactly "spendy." However... my order came with more than what I ordered. Shipping was kooky fast, and very reasonably priced. I realize that people figure out ways to bitch about LaRue but quite honestly I don't understand why. My order didn't even break $100 but they treated me very well! Customer for life. Even the packing tape is cool! |

Just received my first LaRue product today,a LT751 QD mount for my PA Micro Dot optic. Am highly impressed with the quality workmanship and felt proud to install it on my POF P451.
Loved receiving my first Dillo,too. Clint |

Just got my aimpoint Pro with the larue 150 mount. After opening the box and giving my wife all the extras you sent (how great is that!!!) put it on my new sr-556. Went and shot. Love it. It was perfect. You guys have my business first! Thanks.

So I ordered a Harris BiPod and LaRue QD mount for it today. I'm over in Afghanistan and when I placed the order, it was 0300 local time at LaRue. Well, it shipped at about 0830 local LaRue time! Holly shit! I've ordered stuff from there before and have always been very pleased with not only the quality, but the fast shipping and great customer service. This time they were in hyperdrive to get this out and into the mail. WOW! Great job once again LaRue. I guarantee I will get more stuff from you real soon!

So when I took home my care package from Larue last night, my wife tasted the dillo dust. She loved it. She asked how much do they sell for? After telling her it's not something they sell.... she said "Well, I guess you'll have to order there more often..." Ha! Very good sign!!! She was very impressed with all the goodies that came with my order, just as much as I was. Another satisfied customer here, and gained customer for sure. Thanks Larue!!!
The LT129 looks fantastic, cant wait to shoot the new aimpoint pro with this mount! |

Ordered my stuff from the randstad gift cert that i got. I also bought some other stuff, got my box a week or so later. Got my dillo dust and am now happily addicted to dillo dust. The GF asks if I can buy just dillo dust. I said "nope, gotta buy gun parts with it" she advised me to make a few orders for stuff

Hi all, I am a total newbie regarding the AR15 and so I decided to go to the local store to get a lower to build my first rifle ever; the best choice at the store was a POF lower, and it was the most expensive too
Then I tried the uppers they had at the store, and some were really sloppy; and some were ok but still wiggled, even if just a hair, so after doing my homework (at AR15.com of course) I decided to order an LT upper from SKD (LT didn't have the one with the M4 feed ramps cut in stock). Wow, the fit was absolutely perfect, there is no wiggles or floppiness, I am totally impressed with the quality and fit; so much so that it awakened my lust for an OBR, so I started saving for it already. Then I thought to order a couple of 30 round PMags modified for 10 rounds from LT; again, WOW, not only was I impressed with the Magpul quality, and for LT thinking about us slaves in California, but LaRue sent the coolest bottle opener I have ever seen, a couple of really cool bumper stickers, and a bottle of "Dillo Dust"; and most impressive: a copy of the US Constitution; I thought for sure that was a mistake because I didn't order the extra stuff, but it turned out to be a gift; so my "impresiveness" level just kept on climbing. Then I got some more money (I'm disabled with a broken back from an accident at work, long story, longer than this one), and I ordered a Silicon-chrome buffer spring and an extractor upgrade spring pack, and a Magpul Miad pistol grip (I didn't know LT has a new grip, the A-PEG, or I would have bough it); this time they not only send another "dillo" and dillo dust, and bumper stickers, and another US Constitution but they also sent a "10th Annual Sniper Competition" DVD; WOW times three; needless to say my level of "impresiveness" just flew off the chart. This kind of customer appreciation and service is outstanding, in any industry; and this kind of little details are huge in my book so LT has a new customer for life. I really appreciate the US Constitution, I think everyone should have one and read it often. Anyway, thanks for reading, and thank you LaRue Tactical for making this a better country and contributing to my grand children's inheritance; my only regret is that I don't live in Texas. "God bless our troops, specially our snipers", I love it. |
