Hey all- I was hoping to pick up a few more MBT2S triggers before the new year when AB1263 kicks in here in Kali. Larue no longer sells them direct and all of the online vendors listed on the Larue MBT page are currently out of stock... Was hoping the Larue crew around these parts might have a lead on where I might find these awesome triggers currently in stock. Please advise... |

Yeah, but I’m not buying that they’ve somehow absorbed all of LaRue’s trigger production capacity. GMR hasn’t restocked MBTs since last summer, and their January newsletter said they haven’t been able to get any from their distributor. Sounds like they’re in the same boat as everyone else. |

LT is either not making any right now, or they're waiting until they have x number of units ready before shipping a bunch out to their reseller partners. It's quite odd, and a bummer as the MBT is my first recommendation to anyone asking me what trigger to buy. |

Here is an excerpt from GMR's latest email blast:  MBT update - As far as we can tell, LaRue is no longer selling MBT triggers. They have stopped selling MBTs directly via their website and it doesn't appear that any of their preferred retailers have them in stock either. We're sad to see them go, but we are actively working on a replacement for them in our product line up |

I hope someone gets some in stock, I'd like to snag two more. I have since picked up some of Billy G's units. Still love the SSA and Hi-speed DMR. |

Flats available here I doubt they would stop making an item that sells as well as this one does. There does seem to be a lot of retailers carrying it so maybe they are a victim of their own success and not able to keep up with all the orders. |
The 2nd is not about hunting, it never was. It was put in place for one reason and one reason only. You can't have them, we won't give them up, so get over it.

There were some long waits on things ordered direct, particularly after sales. |

I can’t imagine companies like Scheels have much patience for SKUs that are perpetually unavailable. They couldn't keep up with demand. It's like the old days when they used to sell everything direct. So much would be on backorder for ages. And now instead of fulfilling orders they come out with the Bar None, a rifle no one asked for. |

| I remember ordering a PredatAR right at the end of 2012 when Sandy Hook happened. I think I waited almost 1.5 years for that rifle but at least Mark was attempting to make update once in a while about what was going on- high demand, waiting on new machinery, design of their own barrel since Lothar supply wasn’t keeping up, etc… And they didn’t charge until it shipped. Now, it seems there’s nothing. Their famous customer service seems to have disappeared. Half of their products are gone. Prices have skyrocketed. No updates. |

With so many competitors now I find it insane that they think a 6+ month backorder for something like a trigger is acceptable. If MidwayUSA had charged me for them immediately I’d have cancelled for a refund 5 months ago and bought G$ triggers instead. |

They never did come back in stock on the website

While not being able to keep manufacturers supplied with them is a good problem to have, I wonder how much it hurts sales. I know if I'm looking for something I want it to be in stock. I hate back ordering stuff. I usually end up canceling them. |

Primary Arms had some LaRue MBT 2s curved triggers in stock a couple of days ago. They are sold out now. They still have some straight triggers in stock: https://www.primaryarms.com/larue-tactical-mbt-2s-ar-15-trigger-straight-bow I have always liked the MBT 2s more than G$ triggers. But, I have purchased a dozen G$ triggers this year for some FRTs. At $135 a pop for LaRues, I'll be picking up more G$ triggers. |
