I can definitely understand not wanting to pay the same money for less features, but I also can't imagine a scenario where LaRue would go out of their way to remove the PST from the 6.5C tOBR unless they determined it was truly a solution looking for a problem in that caliber.

Got an “asking for a friend” email last night.
Here is my reply that I just sent to him/her/them ...
”Hey,
1.) Pretty sure we segued to black bolt carriers correctly ... but there were drunken IT guys in the loop.
2.) During work on the MRGG-S, we found the 6.5CM oddly didn’t require/allow a PST, which is somewhat fortuitous, at that’s one less thing for the warfighters to have to keep track of. Looks as if I need to add “PST as needed” ....
3.) Siete launch. At the Dallas Safari Club show (and unbeknownst to me), a fan quietly handled every bolt action in the show, then came by to say ours was the smoothest feeling bolt in the whole show. There’s nothing wrong with the Siete, it’s flat out the tits.
4.) We’ve been going through a long, drawn out in-house overhaul ... implementing an ERP shop control system called JobBoss. And holy cow, forcing it down everyone’s throat has been a real chore ... as people hate change. And this brings us back to the Siete. I’m holding up the Siete launch until it is all loaded into and running smoothly in the new ERP system, and ... all existing LaRue backorders system-wide are cleared off and shipped.
Makes no sense to launch the Siete with an ongoing problematic backorder log, as that will only exacerbate the situation.
5.) Yes, canceling orders can make a statement, but it actually falls on deaf ears here as we’re all busy in a monster food fight ;-)
6.) Amazon Prime has spoiled America. That being said, I decided a few years ago that we were going to do diligence in regards to same day shipping. It wasn’t as easy as I hoped it would be, but we got the bull by the balls now and we’re swinging him over our head.
Thanks for taking the time to send me your email, much appreciated.
Now, back to my Sunday morning coffee. ??
ML”
