Ordered a 16" OBR 5.56 on 2/24, and received my shipping email today, 3/14...... Pretty good turnaround, as far as I'm concerned! My 18" was ordered 2/27 and hopefully isn't far behind. |

I'm considering ordering a 18" 7.62 but I'm curious about one thing, when does LaRue charge your card? I can't remember from my PredatAR order. I'd hate to be out $3k for 5 months with nothing to show for it...
|
|
When and what did you order?
Quoted: They charged mine yesterday, when it shipped. |

Now I'm torn. I just got word I'll be laid off in 2 months.
Do I still want to wait for the OBR? |

Ordered my 20" 7.62 OBR on 3/23 and was quoted 14-16 weeks then decided to order my optics setup / other goodies the next day to give my bank account some time to recover before I got charged for the gun itself. I think I got enough to get me started
http://i1074.photobucket.com/albums/w415/Joe4Sho87/IMAG0110.jpg - Nightforce NXS 5.5-22 x 50 with zero stop - LT111-30 QD scope mount - Ergo "ambi" grip - Magpul PRS stock -Surefire MB762-211C muzzle brake / adapter - Harris BRM-S BiPod with LaRue QD mount - Index clips and hand stops Now if only I had something to put them on.... Spoke with a gentleman today at LaRue and he told me I would most likely have my rifle way sooner than I was quoted |

Quoted:
Has anyone who's waited more than 21 weeks heard anything? Tomorrow will be week 22. I called a week ago and was told not to expect anything until at least late April. |

Ordered my 16" 5.56 OBR from a dealer on 12/9. Supposedly shipped 3/16 and I'll have it tomorrow. I'm not totally sure what happened with my order. I did get my OBR on 3/20 after 102 of the longest days I've ever waited through. Local dealer where I ordered it supposedly called Larue on 3/16 and after getting the run-around from whoever answered the phone asked for a manager. Manager looked up the order and supposedly discovered the order had "slipped through the cracks" somehow and assured the dealer it would get shipped that same day. The dealer received it 2 business days later. All of this seems strange to me. OBR arrived with a RISR stock and grip adapter panels that I hadn't asked for but will enjoy none-the-less. Good luck to all you folks still waiting!!! |

Just an FYI, I was told that ALL 7.62 OBR orders will be caught up by the end of April.

I "hope" to have my rifle long enough to become familiar with it and get it dialed in before the world as we know it comes to an end this Dec. 21st, 2012 |

I ordered my 20 inch OBR 762 on jan 30th. Called yesterday and was told I should have it very soon. Like a couple of weeks. Can't wait!!!!
|
|
I ordered a 18" 7.62 OBR in late October, and they have been telling me 3 weeks for the last 3 months.
I don't have a problem waiting for quality, but the lack of communication is a poor reflection on them. I don't even bother calling anymore. When I hit my personal time limit, I'll just cancel and move on. Hope I don't have to... |

Sweet!!!! I got up this morning, made some coffee and checked my email...I see an email from LaRue that my OBR 5.56 16" has shipped! I don't know what to say other than THANK YOU LARUE!!! The best news I've received lately!
My Dad is having quadruple bypass surgery this Thursday and has been looking at pictures of my new rifle...I think he's more excited than me (if that's possible). I've been bummed out for the last couple of weeks because I'm not sure whether he'll make it through the surgery given his condition. My shipping email from LT put the biggest smile on my face. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Sheldon, Mark and the entire Team at LaRue Tactical! |

Thank you, thank you, thank you, Sheldon, Mark and the entire Team at LaRue Tactical! Prayers sent to your father and family. I placed another LT order for some index clips, bipod, and sling and got another LaRue Tactical hat. I took it to the hospital yesterday and gave it to my Dad (who is recovering from bypass surgery). He was so excited! He asked me where the rifle is that goes with it. I told him that once he fully recovers, I'm going to buy him his own OBR 5.56 16". You would have thought he just won the lottery. Thanks for the prayers. He's recovering well and will hopefully be back on his feet shooting his new OBR in the next couple of months. I'll be placing another order for an OBR 5.56 16" soon (got to save a few more dollars first...I'm going to put my $1200 scope for my OBR on hold until after I buy Dad his rifle). |

TXBorn, glad to hear your father is recovering well from his surgery.
That is mighty kind of you to buy him a fine rifle while putting off your own personal (optic's) need's... Good for you sir! The good karma you earn will surely reward you later |

The silence here is deafening.
Has anyone who ordered an OBR since mid-October received their gun yet? If yes, please give gun details (i.e. 5.56/ 7.62, barrel length) I'm still waiting for mine (or any communication whatsoever), and I'm thinking of bailing. Thanks. |
|
Yes.
16" - 5.56 ordered 2/24/2012, shipped 3/14/2012. Sorry about your wait...... |
|
I don't think any 18 inch 762's have hit the street since October. Havent heard of any 762 OBRs being received since Feb.
<–– been in line for an 18 inch 762 gun since November. |
|
Thanks for the update, Just getting frustrated.
So, just to ask, what would you get instead of an OBR to shoot sub-MOA at 1000 yds? Just keeping my options open. |
