What kind of time frame did they quote you? That's what I'm curious about as well. When I talked to Dan, he said there was no telling since they were working on 5.56s, but literally the week before, someone's card was charged and was in gun room. Looking at my order currently, it's in queue. But I did receive an email saying regulated, which I thought was an FFL issue, but that looks to be okay. I'm the one that can't do both, so I'm not gonna send back my lower unless the 7.62 gets out first. |

This is probably answered in here somewhere...but what is the weight of an unloaded 14.5" PredatOBR without optics?

MK6 sits in a LT111-34 and is very comfortable without any comb adjustment needed to me.

Decided to swap it out for the Mark 6 3-18 when I found one for a great deal. The USO is a great scope just a bit heavy for my PredatOBR. Originally, I choose the USO over the Mark 6 as the initial release of the Mark 6 3-18 was not illuminated. This one is illuminated and the new M5C2 turret keeps the height of the scope similar to the USO EREK. The Mark 6 seems to be a great fit. I didn't loose any magnification (actually gained 1x) and dropped some weight at the same time. Couldn't pass up the opportunity to grab one at a good price. |

Just picked up a scope coat off Dvor last week for 8 bucks. Had a 5 dollar credit so only had to shell out 3 ;). Also picked up a reloading manual on the cheap to justify shipping. Both items and shipping for what the manual would cost retail!

Alright, listen up men. I have been emailing Leupold for about two weeks, asking them when they are gonna release alumina series caps for the Mk6 3-18 and have not heard anything in response..... yet.
I think we all need to start squealing like angry pigs until we hear something from them. I really want those to replace my BC's. |

What's the standard muzzle device shipped with the tOBR 7.62? Thanks!
14.5" or 16.1" and why. I'm looking for a nice hog rifle, if that helps. Thanks again! |

[Last Edit: sgwlower]
[#43]
The 16" ships with an A2 unless you order and specify differently.
The 14.5 ships with what ever muzzle device you order it with pinned and welded. For hogs ..either the 308 predatar to take advantage of its light weight. Or the 14.5 tobr to take advatage of its mobility. |

I read somewhere that some people only waited a couple months for certain rifles... I have a tAR due next month, based off when people ordered and are receiving theirs, so I'm not too worried. As long as I can beat the price increase and maybe get the shorter wait times... |
