I have about 1/2 dozen sets of furniture, 2 complete Stealths and another stripped I built with you barrel, HG, GB, ... And 2 MBTs still int he cans. I see myself being off the list on 2/16. |

I recognize the incredible value of the ToT package, but are we supposed to buy a box full of these?

What if you offered a choice of maybe 3 options each quarter, priced accordingly?
1) Barrel, MBT, Polymer 2) Upper receiver, Handguard, BCG, CH 3) Lower w/receiver ext and other small parts I think it would help keep the ball rolling for folks who have rifles in different stages of completion. And from your side, getting MOAR LaRue rifles at MOAR gun ranges is probably a better strategy than getting MOAR LaRue parts boxes in MOAR gun safes. |

Well, it's a BuildARs club of sorts ... we'll whittle on it some moar. Thanks Mark. That would be outstanding. We don't see all the factors you do when it comes to the demand(s) on your business for certain parts. I'm sure all the shouting for lowers gets old from your standpoint. I think some folks feel like they just won a cookie eating contest and the prize was more cookies. I'm very grateful for the awesome sales. Like most of us, I've got a lot of LT parts here from my account and my father's. It will be a grand day when I can place those on top of a lower bearing your companies name. In many of our minds it signifies the only quality we will settle for, the best. I can't bring myself to mount a gold standard upper on a dog turd, so I wait.

This sale let me put together a list of very discerning buildARs, and during a period when junk is struggling to sell. You guys didn't want to drag out of the truck a $60 barrel in front of a $60 trigger, festooned with air soft quality furniture. I think this is going to be the start of a long and enjoyable business friendship, a very small group shooting a lot of very small groups. ML I'm pretty excited about this Dillo, I mean DITTO, finally getting into the AR scene and I think I picked the right time with the ToT sale. Working on two right now to have ready by spring and the one that will be decked out in LaRue is the one I most excited. If only I had no other bills and could have gotten two of them. But by spring I should be good. Although there is a strong chance I will get impatient by then! You are the guy I wrote the script for.

Mr, Larue,
Thank you for the deal. I don't think anybody wants to be ungrateful and complain about a 50% off deal you are offering that you don't have to offer at all. That said, I understand why some guys are a little let down, given we may already have 5 or 6  Larue barrels at home with nothing to mate them too, and aren't in the market for 4 more barrels a year at this point.
I know that means we don't have to partake, and it's not your responsibility to create a solution for us after we made our own decisions. Thanks again for going out of your way to offer us a deal. I appreciate it! |

I'm advantaging a build ever year and I still have two barrels in safe from the first sale.... and now this great news?!?! Mind blown |
|
Certainly a very cool deal, and I'll be in for at least one or two quarters.
Not that you're asking for feedback on this, but what if instead of only the TOT deal, maybe there was a menu of sorts. Stick with the quarterly purchase cycle and we had to choose a minimum of three items from a possible 5 or 6 or whatever. I'm sure I speak for the majority of us that even if the discounts weren't as good as TOT, we'd still be in for the long haul, making it still profitable for the company and allowing us to keep buying product. My shooting budget is stretched thin as is and commitment to a minimum $400 order just to be able to continue to purchase more products will only go so far. I have a couple AR rifles as is, and as fun as building one quarterly would be it's just not really an option. Personally I'd have a cheap safe full of badass rifles that I couldn't afford to feed or train with. Just my .02 not that ya need it |

There wasn't a promise of being added to some mysterious list when I bought. I just bought because it was a good price and the tAR barrel fit the bill for what my buddy was looking to do.
If I get offered that same deal quarterly, I'm probably good for another buy or two. It's an added bonus, after all. I didn't pay anything for it, though it may end up costing me! |

I'm really not trying to whine. I wasn't addressing anyone specifically. It would be neat to see variations to the deal, too. But I'll take whatever. Money is the only object and I figure, like the tAR barrel I used for my buddies build, I can probably move a piece or two of the package for more than I paid, but still less than retail, to keep me afloat, and still get to keep parts for my own enjoyment. Win-win. |

This is great. As much as some here scoff at the lack of clear word on lowers, the barrel is probably the most critical part, followed closely by the trigger.
You could throw them down into a PSA, BCM, or (if you wanna go higher dollar) a Noveske and have a fine shooting rifle. Thanks again for this Mark. Hopefully I can hit every ToT sale. The only thing that I could see hindering our business relationship would be the fact that my better half wants some younguns next year. ETA: Don't get me wrong, I'd still be extremely grateful for another shot at lowers
