For those that have received shipping notices or their rails already, when did you order? I ordered thanksgiving evening and just want to make sure all is still good as I haven’t heard a peep. Thanks! Both shows processing still. I will add this, there was almost 2000 orders between my first and second order though 
It did say orders could take 4-6 weeks to ship. So keep that in mind |

Thanks! First was the fed rail within 5 minutes of the website allowing you to order, since I didn't want to miss out. This order is still processing. Second was after the rest of the sale opened, for some accessories like optics mounts. This order is in transit with UPS and should be delivered today. Third order was for a MK16 because I just couldn't resist, and it was delivered on Wednesday. |

I would favor the DD because it's gov't profile. There's no need for HBAR, unless you're just dumping mags. I think the CHF aspect of the DD would make it more durable than a regular heavy bbl...now a CHF HEAVY bbl...

A heavy barrel doesn’t really give you much in the mag dump/full auto realm. I think the CHF aspect of the DD would make it more durable than a regular heavy bbl...now a CHF HEAVY bbl... Quoted:

Wanted to follow up to my previous posts. I emailed Geissele Sales about the mixup on the Black Federal rail when I ordered green. Contacted them Wednesday, by Thursday they had a replacement in the mail, and today it showed up at my door with a return label for the black one. @GACS A+ customer service from Tiara, even if she wouldn’t sell me a separate ODG ACH, no matter how nicely I asked.

With OD buffer tube and OD CTR. You can really tell how light plays on this color, the rail looks a lot lighter on the left side and darker towards the right side.

Were you guys emailed a shipping notice by Geissele? I placed the order on the 22nd, but all I have is the order confirmation. My CC was charged the day after the order (11/23). |

Yeah it just reads Status: Processing. Bummer. 
If I don't see shipment Monday, I'll call them I guess. if your cc was charged then id say youre good |

Quoted:
they said it could take 4-6 weeks I couldn't remember which disclaimers I read where. I ordered too much stuff.
I was just looking at the last couple pages here, and it looks like many people got theirs already, but probably not most people. |

If I don't see shipment Monday, I'll call them I guess. . They got me hooked up except the lady said they are out of screws and bolts and are waiting on a shipment. Not sure if the other rails use the same screws as the MK8 or not but that may be causing some delay also.

Purely speculation here but I also wonder if they ran a bunch of rails and have not been annodozed yet so they can fill actual demand by not selling out? Then they can ano to the number of orders and that’s why there’s a delay of a couple weeks waiting for ano to finish. If an order has a part that needs to be anodized then those are delayed any why some people that ordered later are getting stuff before those that ordered earlier because those products happen to be in stock. I noticed a sticker on the inside of my boxes that has an inspection/packed date so I wonder if there are some December stickers that would confirm my speculation.
That or they just have so many orders they’re working their way through. Between my order placed Thursday and the one on Monday. Went from order 100102xxx Thursday at 2pm cst to 100119xxx Monday at 530pm cst. That’s 17,000 orders and gotta figure they probably hit 20k or close to by the end of the sale. Either way I appreciate geissele and their workers for offering these products and working tirelessly to fill all these orders. |

yeah, when I ordered my Fed rails I didn't have to check the box. But when I placed a second order for trigger tool, apron, and DDC buffer tube I had to check the box. The second order (box check) has already shipped. I'm fully expecting for these to be here Valentines day, if they aren't then I'll raise hell

10.5" barrel works with a YHM brake and can shimmed for proper orientation. Barely.
Wrench flats are inside the rail and are thus unusable, but they do allow it to extend out far enough to clear the rail when ratcheting the can on. Attached File Attached File |
