... I knew this would get most of your attention.  This thread is in response to the wait time’s thread.  
Is it really that bad that the main complaint people have about RRA is the wait times?  Yes, RRA could hire some crack head at minimum wage to slap these guns together, but do you really want that?  Why do we all love RRA?  One word.... quality.  Come on; let’s give these guys a break.  They produce great stuff.  Sure the wait at time can be a little long, and sure the website may have given a few people false info in those wait times but cut them some slack.  Some of these wait times are not in their control.  Sometimes they have to wait for other manufactures and suppliers for product, this happens in every industry.  But hey, for RRA quality at RRA prices I think we can all wait a little.  If you can't wait and still want a RRA there are some out there, you may just have to pay a little more for them.

From what I can tell other complaints pretty much steam from self proclaimed AR armorers wrenching on their guns.  Come on guys, you own a RRA.  Does it really need any adjusting?

I don't think most people are dissatisfied with a given wait. It is when that wait time is exceeded without a solid delivery time. That being said if my rifle has quality and accuracy that matches their reputation I'll be a happy man.

we're talking 12 weeks here.  This ain't a custom tack driver - it's a rack grade AR.  One thing's for sure, in a free market, scarcity drives up price - that what you want?

Back in Feb. when I decided I wanted a RRA carbine I had it in a week. You have to look further than the main website for these rifles. The smaller shops are where they are at. Just purchased some lowers from the same guy a few weeks ago and he had more RRA's. I saw some more TASC like mine and a couple Varmit type units, atleast a good six, seven rifles.

I've had an RRA entry tac for about two years now.  I can tell you without question it is worth the wait.  I was fortunate enough to buy one from a local gun shop that had quite a few on hand at the time.  Fit and finish are top notch, I am talking no play whatsoever between the upper and lower receiver.  You get the two stage trigger right out of the box and the AR shoots great.  Within 10 rounds I had it sighted in right out of the box.  I can't say enough good things about my rifle.  RRA has continued to put out a quality product and stand behind it.  The demand has increased for them dramatically.  I know they are in the process of expanding their factory space, but they just couldn't keep up with the demand.  It's rare that you see a manufacturer of any kind keep to their standards and continue to put out such a quality product when demand rises so much.  They have resisted the temptation to speed up production and conversely lower quality.  Just my two cents...
