[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Getting tired of the wait for the Larue handguard......

Posted: 2/24/2017 2:21:27 PM EDT

Hit the 1-month wall. Still no joy. The thing that attracted me to the Larue handguard is the strength and stability of the handguard -something that would withstand duty use and abuse.

The sale price on the handguard was impressive, but not much good to me if I never get it.

Does anyone know of a rail in the 200-250 dollar range that is as secure and strong as the Larue? I seriously need to get this rifle together....

BIL took him awhile to get her 13.2 but it came in. Good things come to those who wait.

Thinking I'll go with an Alpha rail (13") with sight.

Well if strong lock up is a requirement, I wouldn't go this route as there is just too many better choices.

I have abused my Gieselle and noticed twice now that one of the hardware bolts has loosened with both rock set and blue loctite.

I would honestly trust the larue attachment method and hardware more at this point.

The new mk13 slim design appears to offset the mounting hardware a bit and perhaps this will correct the issue.

If told that you that OP, you are ahead of game, I do like Larue's discount if you are will to wait on triggers. More things should be that way.

It took about 8 weeks for mine. Ordered after thanksgiving got it the end of January.

What length of LaRue are you looking for? I have a full length one I might sell? I don't get on here much and don't play here much so, don't know if you can PM me or not.
