so I placed my first order with LT today (Friday) at around 1545 thinking that it would be AT LEAST Monday or Tuesday before it shipped.  Imagine my surprise when I got an email at 1745 with my UPS tracking number.



That's lightening fast!  I'm in Houston and will have it on Tuesday.  



Great job LT, and thanks!!!!

I placed my first order with you guys. I literally saved my pennies for almost a year and a half to have enough money to have my first larue purchase. I saw the lowers you guys made and just had to have one. Once I saw that you were offering them as a separate item from the stealth uppers I made every effort to make sure I got one and finally did. I just want to say that I am very thankful for the goodies that came in the box and even though it will take me quite some time to save up for the next purchase, I can't wait to finally piece together my ar-15 with more larue products. I amy be a man of small means, but at least I got me a sweet lower and a nice hat

Here is a copy of what I sent to LaRue today:

Sent: Tuesday, December 21, 2010 8:50 AM
To: [email protected]
Subject: Great Job!


I just wanted to say thank you for a great job. I ordered a Aimpoint ML3 with your LaRue lever mount at 1:45pm last Thursday. The UPS man delivered the package this Monday at 2:30 pm! Outstanding!


The quick turn shipping is only a small part of my satisfaction. As requested on your order form, I gave a heads up call to the shop to let them know I had the 2 day shipping. A real live human answered the phone (no push one for sales, two for english, hold for so and so etc.), checked the status of my order and confirmed it was in stock. (I am sorry I did not get the gentelman's name but he was courteous and quick) Again Outstanding!

I own one of the first Aimpoint scopes from 1980 (it still is mounted on a CAR15 and still works) so I was confident in my purchase. The LaRue mount was an unknown to me, but hands down the favorite of the AR15.com guys. I see why now. Very solid, positive lock system and all this made not only in America but in Texas as well. The instructions were clear, also in English, and the tools that were included were of top quality. I have a set of the ARMS QD mounts for another rifle but the finish and locking system of the LaRue Mount is clearly superior. The chance of a sling or gear inadvertantly unlocking the mounting lever of the Larue seems remote at best. Not so with the ARMS which requires tension on the lever to remain closed. The double lugs for the rail appear to complete the mount's secure lockdown.

The unexpected additon of the Beverage Entry Tool, LaRue hat with glasses holders (nice touch), and Dillo Rub, US Constitution copy, and bumper stickers was the icing on the cake.

You guys have a new fan and customer! I'm proud to buy American from Texans!

Thanks again and Merry Christmas to the whole LaRue Team!

All I can say is "WOW!" I placed an order on 12/22/10 in the afternoon (2pm-ish). It was for a Christmas present from my wife to me. She wanted to make sure we covered gifts for everyone before getting our gifts so, it was a last minute order. I figured it would show up sometime next week. It just arrived today 12/23/10 at 2:30pm (about 24 hours from placing the order to the doorstep). I know I live in San Antonio, TX. but, wow, that is some fast service and shipping. My wife was so impressed she took the box so she could wrap it, so no pics. Anyway, I just wanted to say thank you and Merry Christmas.

I ordered 8 pmags & 6 holiday dillos Friday.  I was worried it would be awhile before they got here since i'm sure they are busy over the holidays & I ordered late.  LaRue came through big time & got my order here today. Got 2 bumper stickers, dillo dust and an extra holiday dillo!.  The six I ordered were spoken for, now I got an extra to trade in the swag exchange.

Thank you Mark Larue you have got yourself excellent products and great service.

Almost made a grown man cry.  I was at work, in a warehouse, 23 degrees outside with the wind howling, Diesel heater struggling to keep up when the boss walks in with a package with Larue tape on it. I had a smile from ear to ear.  Love the Christmas Dillo too.  I always show my buddies my Larue OBR lite and the Larue mount I have on my R-15.  Thanks Mark and all the great people at Larue.  Just awesome

quick feedback...

first, love the company, the products, and everything you guys stand for. thanks for the swag when i make my purchases, i just got a covert case and it came with the "usual" pamphlets/stickers/dillo but it also came with my first can of dillo dust which i cant wait to try!!

anyway...  maybe im the odd one out or my email is messing up somehow..i've placed a few orders with you guys and every time i do i get the usual email/invoice/receipt/confirmation but i have never receive an email with a tracking # for UPS. i always have to send an email to you guys requesting this...... is this normal? once the IRS finally gives me my refund i plan on buying a stealth upper, just want to keep track of my purchase as its shipped....

All I have purchased so far are two LT-150 mounts, but they are very nice. I have experience w. ARMS as well, and I would definitely say that LT is the better of the two in the mounts department. I look forward to ordering more mounts from them in the future.

Same problem here, first time buying larue products, I had 3 shipments, 2 orders plus one item that got shipped separately from its order. No automated e-mails with tracking numbers.  Kinda cause some issues given that UPS apparently doesn't mind leaving over $1000 without a signature even when larue requested one.  The guys at the shop were easy to deal with and helpful when working through some shipping issues.

Products look great, looking forward to testing them out soon.

Dear LaRue Tactical,

Last night at about 4:50 pm I ordered a Aimpoint Comp ML2. The gentleman who took my order was very helpful, efficeint, and friendly. I asked if it could be shipped overnight seeing as how I need it for this weekend and a week long class next week. He said he would get it done.

Well sir he did get it done. I am extremely grateful for his hard work and for your great atmosphere in which you bring with your customer service. I also must say that the pricing you have is great. I received the aimpoint with a better mount and overnight shipping for cheaper than I could buy a plain one locally if they had them in stock.

Once again, thank you all for your hard work.

I recently purchased a new OBR 556-16 and was disappointed to discover that the rails that came with my rilfe did not match the pictures in their brochure or on the web. Although they are lower profile, I really wanted the 7 rail version instead of the 5. I contacted LaRue and they handle it professionally and expeditiously! As their founder says, they really do care about their customers and their complete satisfaction. Words can't describe my appreciation. LaRue Tactical - Great Company.

LaRue will be my first choice for any accessory.

I have ordered two mounts from LaRue, and with the first one I was surprised I got the Dillo, and Dillo dust (first time ordering anything from LaRue, and didn't know much about the company) obviously got the same with the second mount. Today I received a 20RD Pmag and I wondered if I would get a Dillo and sure enough I did with my cheap order! I was hoping I would!

Was building my first AR and decided to go with a LaRue Stealth for the upper.  When I ordered (this past Friday), the gentleman that I spoke to said that it would be two or three weeks before my items were shipped out.

I think he lied. Because I received a lovely package this afternoon with all my amazing gear in it.  5 days instead of 2 or 3 weeks? I'll be coming back.

TBH when I made my very first LaRue order, I felt kinda lame, just getting a Wilderness belt and water bottle. As a college student with a part time job, I don't have the cash flow (yet!) to fork out for a OBR/optics+mounts/etc, but I wanted that water bottle and belt. So it was of great joy to open that box to find dillo dust, a dillo, stickers, and a constitution on top of all the OBR information (must have been reading my mind), on top of the two things I ordered.

There is really nothing more to say, except that I plan on buying a lot more from LaRue in the future.

I remember when I bought by first Larue product.... I had just started shooting 3-gun and a friend use to bring two identical rifles to a match, one with a scope and one with a dot so he could decide what he was going to shoot when he got there. I could not afford to do that at the time and I looked into getting a return to zero mount...which led me to Larue. I bought two mounts one for my eotech and one for my scope... I zeroed both and when I would go to a match I could decide there which one to mount on my rifle to shoot the match with. Quality product ... since then when asked by my wife or parents what I want for Birthday/christmas... I say go to Larue.com and pick something out.... Cause really can you have too much of any Larue product??

My Son was born a year ago tomorrow and I can tell you there is a nice rifle that he is going to get one day that I got just for him (of course it has to be fully tested by me for the next many years)... just in anticipation ... got to start them off right.

You keep developing and building ... I'll keep buying

And thanks for all that you do for the culture and the sport. I got a chance to shoot the 3-gun this year and if I only get to go to one match a year it will be Larue's.

Mr. Larue:

The Survival Forum just got back from a campout in California at a friends ranch just outside of the Seqouia National Forest.  Here is the link with an AAR and pics One of the members was "thebrassnuckles".   He apparently was the receipient of one of your excellent giveaway's in 2009.  Your rifle was awesome by the way.  thebrassnuckles brought the rifle and we did some drills with him on it.  I am a rangemaster for my police department.  Amongst other things we did, one of the drills I teach is a 2x2x2 drill wherein you place 3 targets side by side at a distance of 10-15 feet and engage the targets with double taps as fast as you can from a low ready position.  That's 3 targets, 2 shots each, for a total of 6 shots.   I set the bar at 1.33 seconds for anyone to beat.  

thebrassnuckles did it with your rifle at 1.32 seconds.   (I now owe him a bronze membership renewal.)  The kid can shoot and he is former USAF - EOD.  

Anyway, I thought you might like the story.   We had a great time and your products are the best.  

Thanks for all you and your staff do.

Mark,

I dealt with JP via email and he answered my questions quickly and professionally. I called in to place my order and talked to Luke (I think that was his name). Luke was very professional and pleasant to deal with. I have placed orders as cheap as $40 and as much as $3k. No matter the amount everyone I have talked to with Larue treated me like my business was important and that they genuinely cared. Your support if Law Enforcement is also very much appreciated.

Thanks

Thoroughly impressed with Larue. I ordered Monday, called them to have them switch it over to USPS (very friendly and easy), and received it on Friday.

All the extra goodies that came with the Optic were a big plus, and somehow, they got me a hat in the same color as my AR.

Got my first mount from Larue in today, and spent the next half hour explaining and showing off all that came in the box to my sister-in-law, I am well aware that she does not care, just had to show someone.   I am like a little kid with a new toy.    Consider me to have drank the kool aid, because it is some of the best kool aid I have ever had.  Love it.  Thanks to all the folks at Larue, there will be more orders.
