Order 602XX. I've heard nothing. 1 year 21 weeks today. I need proof that they are actually shipping. Maybe I will believe it when I get a call or email. Same as above...just checking....16" 5.56? Since these things seem to usually go by barrel length & caliber... Remaining optimistic & hopeful |

Nice Jeep BCV!!!! (Rifle ain't too bad either!!!!!)

^Sexy rifle Still waiting to see proof of these things moving. Someone post a screen shot. *tin foil hat*  Hopefully they fly through these orders. How long does it usually take in the ready to build phase?Took a little more than a week for my OBR 7.62 16"......got the 'ready to build' on 01/28, and it shipped on 02/07...so hoping it's roughly the same here, but I still haven't gotten the word on mine |

I do. I also forget about guns I own that are on consignment and custom guns on order. It's an ability consciously developed. Quoted:

I go months without remembering that I have one on order.   I do. I also forget about guns I own that are on consignment and custom guns on order. It's an ability consciously developed. Wish I had that kind of willpower. I feel like a junkie chasin a fix waiting for announcments on 18" 7.62 barrels... |

I just got my email also!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Order 55xxx!!!! Only 18 months of waiting!!
A 16 inch PredatAR, 556. I just boxed it up and put the UPS label on it. Now the real waiting begins! 
WooHoo!!!!! Does anyone know if they ever got their barrel making process figured out? I was wondering if these were coming with field barrels or not? |

Quoted:
I am under the impression that all rifles are now shipping with match grade barrels. The field grade program is over. That's great to hear. Not that anything is wrong with a field grade barrel, but I ordered a Larue because I wanted the best. I appreciate the fact that they had that program, but I am glad my rifle will be coming with the match grade barrel. |

Quoted: 9/25/12 order date for 5.56 16in. Really don't understand what's going on!!! Would going through a dealer make a difference? Quoted: Quoted: Im 9/11/12. im at 57k range. What the hell? 9/25/12 order date for 5.56 16in. Really don't understand what's going on!!! Would going through a dealer make a difference?  |

Budgeman and TexanPower have either of you called the shop yet? This seems very odd they would be filling orders after you guys.... might need to light the phones up. I am Dec 26,2012 for mine, so still quite a ways off to get my order filled but very concerned that you guys seemed to have been passed up. Just curious, nothing in the SPAM folder that may have been missed? |

I called and spoke to Juli - I ordered through a dealer and she said I need to check with them, but that an email should be going out soon. |

Order # 611XX Just printed Label and going to the UPS store today.
Question : Should I return all the items I was shipped with my lower? I recall some time ago some talk about not shipping the GI type mag back. Also I received a magpul pistol grip and am wondering if the rifles being shipped now will come with the Larue grip or magpul. Sorry if this was covered previously. |

It's my understanding that the only accessories that LaRue will install are stocks & muzzle devices, so I'm guessing you should not send back your mags or grip |

My order 66588 is a year and 15 weeks. I received an email last Wednesday to contact Julie. I did and she told me my rifle should be built within 72 hours and shipped to my FFL. Been a long time coming. TAR 16" 5.56. This is good news. I'm at 401 days on my tAR 16" 5.56 order #98xxx |
|
Here is to hoping I am up for delivery as well.
69xxx, and I did the lower program, 16" tAR, 556. but no email/call yet to send it back. *Fingers Crossed The only reason I think I maintained my sanity since 2012 is I ran across an 18" tAR in stock at a gun shop and snatched it up 3 days after I placed the order for the 16" |

Been a long time coming. TAR 16" 5.56. Sounds like I’m right on your heels (at 679xx, Nov 2012). Has anyone else in the upper 60’s or 70’s heard anything? Damn, I was fine waiting patiently until I saw this thread   
Sad thing is... I'm probably going to just build in the process of building a Stealth Upper for primary use on the tAR lower... 300blk being the rage and all

I am at 660xx and haven't heard anything. I have the lower collecting dust in the back of my closet. This is getting silly I called Julie around Christmas and told her I needed it by March for some training I am going to. She said she couldn't promise but that that was probably doable.
I don't think I am willing to wait much longer. Ordered 10/31/12. I don't think anything out there compares to the PredatAR and I am a true Larue die hard fan. But the new Daniel Defense V9 comes pretty close. At 6.34 lbs with 15 in rails nice looking package. I will wait a long time for a high quality product made in Texas (10/31/12) but Jesus Christ it isn't doing me any good if it ain't in my hands. Ill shut up and wait longer! |
