Looks like I am in the process of cancelling an order for a 18" 5.56 predatar today. Order was placed first of December and today I was told I may or may not see it by April.
Some guy at the plant told me they have a big .mil contract in house. Understandably, civilian orders are on the back burner. Talked to my dealer a few minutes ago. Told him if he gets the same story, just cancel the thing. Hated to do so, wife ordered that rifle as my Christmas present. She was more excited to see it arrive than I even was. I needed to have it shipped and ready to shoot the TX 3 gun championship in April. Now I have to go another route. Dang!  |

Looks like i will be waiting it out and going with what I have for the big match. |

Looks like i will be waiting it out and going with what I have for the big match. I think you will be happy with that decision in the end... I've had to wait on longer than quoted on 2 out of 3 of my LT rifles so far, and have no regrets at all... I will say that being more proactive in updating folks on their orders when they go beyond the time quoted would be a good thing, both for the customer, but probably them too... I have no problem waiting, particularly if it is for parts out of their control, or orders for our warfighters, but commo is king! |

When you guys ordered do they charge the full amount to the card that day or do they charge when they are ready to ship?

Ordered my 7.62 18" Predator on 12/8. Picked it up today and am very happy. Will place my order for a 5.56 next week. Sometimes it's hard to be patient––in this case, it has been worth it. My only regret? I was hoping it would ship with steak seasoning––I cant get enough of that stuff!

I ordered my 16in OBR 5.56 on 31 Jan. It was delivered to my FFL on 23 Feb. Unfortunately, I can't pick it up until May when I return from Afghanistan. (yes, I know the rules. I will post picks as soon as I get it)

Guys I preordered my PredatAR when they were announced........I waited MONTHS for production to start. BUT TRUST ME IT IS WORTH THE WAIT!!! When your CC is charged they are putting your rifle into production.
