Quoted: “Shit machining” BCG has perfectly concentric gas vent holes in high res photo, “great machining” BCG has chipped the fuck up vent holes in extremely low res photo. You have no idea what you are talking about and need to go back to the basement. View Quote |

lol...read the original post i pulled those pics from, both of those are Geissele BCGs so thanks for correcting me. The BCG i thought had good machining actually has shit machining too, per your own words.........hahaha. Those "chipped the fuck up vent holes" are on a carrier from a signature rifle.......

lol, your a joke. The chipped holes are a non issue but you implied i didnt know anything because i said the carrier with them that had no machining marks was a better machined piece. Nice try trying to not look like a dope. Machine marks are from running the tool too fast. Anyone who has actually run a lathe or mill knows this. Ill be sticking to Bravo BCGs ,smooth as silk machining.

Shipping notice on an ODG SD upper + MBC yesterday. Looks like they're starting to roll out the ODG stuff more now.

Got a shipping notification for odg SD, should arrive Wednesday!

oye
G sent me an email way back in very early December asking that I directly respond to the email with a copy of my LGS's FFL. My LGS doesn't give its FFL to just-anybody, so I ended up having them send their FFL to G with my order number attached. I opened a query/request with G about a week later, having not heard back, asking if they had received my FFL's info and I got a response (second week of Dec) thanking me for sending the FFL. Just got an email from G today asking if I ever had my FFL send their info because they don't seem to have anything from them Good news, that means mine is close to shipping? Though I may need to wait to hear back from Geissele, after giving them all the specific info above, to be told I need to have my FFL re-send and then maybe they'll get it and maybe be able to start the shipping process? I have patience. But. I'd really like to get my Thanksgiving rifle before Valentine's day |

Got an email today. Shipping notification with tracking number. Delivery Wednesday.
SDURG Black. I’ll keep you guys posted if/when it arrives and post pics. |

Has anyone received a complete URG-I from the restock on 11/30?

I’m not as concerned with the machining marks as much as I am with the staking job on the BCG in those photos. I’m used to BCM’s staking which is really good. I ordered two SD uppers and pray to God they are staked well. I’m considering cancelling but, I don’t know. I finally broke down and sent them a friendly email asking about the status of my order since it’s approaching the 10 week mark. Hopefully I’ll hear back from them.
I’d rather wait and get them to do it right with high quality then to rush it through to get it out etc. But for me it still says “processing” and no shipping emails yet. Anyone get their 11.5” Luna black SD uppers yet? Your opinions? |

68 DAYS LATER
Everybody complaining about machine marks and anodizing issues and im over here just wishing I had my super duty upper or lower to shoot |
|
Sounds to me like Geissele is having a hard time producing consistent quality parts...such a shame.
|
|
I haven't been keeping over the last week.... but where is up super duty upper?
Anyone got just a SD upper? |
|
|
|
I put it on a buddy’s lower and it shot super good. Very smooth, pretty accurate although I only put on some iron sights. No malfunctions but I only shot a few hundred rounds through it.

Received part of my order today. ODG CH, black SCH, and DDC lower parts kit. Waiting on my SD-C trigger (which is in stock but didn't come in the partial order ) a Gray SD and DDC receiver set.
I did get a 35% off coupon and I must say it made me chuckle . |
|
Got my partial order in today at long last... pretty disappointed I didn't get everything, but I'm sure one of these days I'll finally get my SSP. I did get a swag pack with a tan hat, some coffee (I don't drink coffee) and a bunch of stickers. Oh, and the funny coupon. My ODG CH is nice, I like the color. And yes, my order still just says "processing" online.

I finally got my black Super Duty 11.5" upper.
The receiver and upper were both covered in disgusting sticky goop that I had to wipe off for about 30 minutes. It was impossible to handle and not get your hands dirty. I didn't want to put solvents on it because I don't know whether I'm keeping it or not. I'm wondering if they shrink wrapped it, why would they need so much damn cosmoline? It's fucking sealed! Secondly the upper is a different color than the hand guard. Not a big deal but the shades are off. I'm a little disappointed. The ejection port cover has a very rough finish/texture to it. I don't know if it is from a poor application of coating or if it is just the cosmoline reacting differently to the steel than it did to the aluminum. It has the surefire flash hider and not the warcomp. I know it says that on the product page, but it slipped past me and I'm just internally bummed about it. No matter I'm putting a dead air can on it anyways. The charging handle seems fine, I've read people seeing poor quality etching and I don't see that on mine. Sad to see that the 35% coupon is not stack-able with other sales. I wonder if their blemish items qualify as combined sales? Also I wonder if they're going to get sued by the rights holder to The Big Lebowski for infringement... Apart from the quality, I noticed this is quite a heavy upper. It's got a beefy shoulder profile. However the stem is thinner than I had expected. Has anyone run their 11.5" yet? Is it overgassed suppressed? |

Geissele, what actually is the "gunk" you used to pack these parts? What do you recommend as a safe removal method?
|
|
|
35% off is what I expect on a typical Geissele blem sale. The extra 35% (or 57.75% total off) is as an apology for this entire fiasco.
Had to jump through hoops to order and receive my parts. And even after I got them, they're still not right. I'm not holding my breath they'll recover fast enough to correct it so I'm just cutting my losses at this point. If you didn't know better, you'd think the parts I received were actually blems. |

Geissele, what actually is the "gunk" you used to pack these parts? What do you recommend as a safe removal method? Quoted: All guns are sprayed with real deal cosmoline from Houghton then vacuum packed in the polymer bag. The cosmoline is a waxy film, that what is on the lower in what appears to be splotches. Get some CLP and rub it all over with a clean rag, it will even out. All colors will vary, there is absolutely nothing we can do about it. Sometimes the variance is a lot. Color anodizing is like a witches brew and it changes hour by hour, day by day. BG |

Order placed 11/29/19, arrived 02/05/2020.
Got lots is swag. There are machining marks on the BCG, so I guess I’ll have to just throw that in the trash. The charging handle has very little rattle and as anyone with over 29 months in an actual combat zone knows, that’s just a no go, so that’ll go in the trash as well. I’m going to burn the 35% “dude” card, because “ I don’t like the fuckin Eagles man!” All kidding aside I am happy with what I see so far. Gas block is pinned, finish and color is great. The two 2nd A stickers will go on the doors of the nearest Democratic campaign spot, or the back of someone Car whom still has a “Hillary” sticker. I look forward to using this just as any other upper I have purchased in the past. Accumulating dents, dings, scratches and all of the carbon....

Quoted: Look at your invoice for the separate SD upper, does it say Luna Black? Their website right now only says Luna Black for the full SD rifle. The separate SD upper is only in "black". Honestly curious if they changed that since your order. https://i.imgur.com/nYaHPO6.png View Quote |

Quoted: Yes cause that would make total sense to lie about. You're the typical person I deal with on the street.You know who got pics first?

The shades may vary and not perfectly match, sound familiar? Just...man oh man |

Quoted: Only on a Geissele thread will people complain because the upper came with what was in the description, but it's not what they wanted. View Quote Honestly getting people to finally post pictures of the parts they are complaining about has made me feel SO much better about my pending rifle. If that's ^ what has people all hot and bothered, we're fucking golden |

9wk5days for this DDC MK14 rail - threw it together and on the KAC lower as a nod to all of the guys cancelling to go buy KACs and Hodges - anodizing and machining looked great. https://i.imgur.com/ReEtr7Q.jpg View Quote |

If anyone is sick of Geissele and and all the drama I'll be happy to take your coupon(s) off your hands.

MJH173 - There appear to be dents on top of your gas key probably from improper handling. I would send it back.

Holy bajebuse Gator! You’re right! Why on earth would they make such a mistake! It’s going in the dump
|

To those of you with an 11.5" Super Duty upper, have you had any luck removing the muzzle device? I attempted to remove mine, heating up the device (boiling in water to remove possible Rockset), but it will not budge one bit.
|
|
I haven’t yet. I have a Dead Air Sandman S, so I’d like to try out the NOX instead of the brakes I have and the flash hider. When I do that I’ll post any issues if I have them.
