Patiently (kinda) waiting on a DDC receiver set and Super Duty lpk. Both were “in stock” when I ordered them Thanksgiving evening.
At this point I’m just chalking it up as a $254 lesson in who to never deal with again. |
|
Patiently [kinda sorta not so much as before) waiting here as well. Just...waiting.
|
|
So what's the percentage of orders haven't been fulfilled yet? 1.3%?
|
|
We are the 5.5%
And the DDC lowers/receivers "have a fair amount to go" So...St Patrick's Day? |
|
I noticed no mention of complete SD rifles. Maybe by next Saturday it will ship...

There is a line for grey guns and a line for luna black guns. Doesn't say DDC complete SD rifles, but given that the worst part seems to be a DDC lower/receiver, I'm betting complete DDC rifles are going to take a long fucking time. Not even through Thanksgiving Day yet and they have "a fair amount to go" View Quote |

Quoted: I told them to cancel my gray SD. Turns out, I don’t need it and could use some sort of KAC rifle View Quote Look at those hyped BCGs, looks like they were machined by monkeys, lol |

Got the 5.5% Email tonight and I am totally OK with it, I have plenty of other guns and projects to occupy my time and I appreciate the killer deal I got!

That's a wise decision. Paying over 1k for a unproven AR is nut, especially from a company never made complete rifle before, if they aren't competitive enough to handle FFL paper work, how can you trust them handle metal? Look at those hyped BCGs, looks like they were machined by monkeys, lol View Quote We understand that people doing governmental BS paperwork and dealing with all of the FFl's are, well, likely to be completely different people doing completely different work than the machinists/engineers/techs/etc who run the machines and actually make the damn things. |

Just got my 5.5% email too. Yippee.
Went out and got a KAC 18" upper tonight to feel better. |

Membership in this exclusive group is given by Geissele to those who still are waiting on their Black Friday orders! We have only 5.5% of our orders to go. I know you don't want to be in this gang but we are victims of our own success and we are sorry to drag you into it. Here is an update on the groups of stuff we still have to send out: Lowers/Receivers we still have a fair amount to go but every day we are shipping. We lost 50 DDC lowers recently due to shadows in the anodizing and this set us back. DDC BUIS due to be anodized and shipped next week. Super Precision scope mounts 30mm will ship early next week. ODG charging handles plan is to ship Monday. 14.5" URG-I will ship end of next week once anodizing is completed. Grey guns Well, this color made me have even more grey hairs then I have now. Late next week ship unless the color goes south again but I have my fingers crossed. Super Duty Luna Black This has been our biggest hit. Folks love the color and the smoothness. We are shipping these as FFL info come in. Super Duty uppers DDC, ODG, Grey, Black next Saturday we plan to have all shipped. Last 13 BG rifles all ship by Thursday of next week. I personally thank you for your business, patience, trust and being a Geissele customer. Bill Geissele |

Interesting that all I'm waiting on is an od fed rail and they dont mention those in the email. Seems like G really buried themselves with this sale and are desperate to dig out.

Waiting on a black charging handle and spring/buffer combo. Hopefully I get that 35% coupon. |

Quoted: No email here either. I don't even receive their newsletter. Had acct & ordered direct for past 6 years. BF order is 12 weeks and "processing", includes a DDC SD. A coupon would be great if its still valid when they get caught up on HS NM trigger production. View Quote |

I got my OD FBI Rail last Tuesday, got the 35% off coupon to use on an OD Federal Charging Handle. The extra wait wasn't much of an inconvenience, afterall I have a couple complete Carbines in gun vault to shoot. I was more concerned the rail had been "Left on Porch" and got snagged by porch pirates.
But the OD is nice, I'm not triggered by everybody's OD components being different shades, I doubt the FBI Armorers are rejecting parts because they are shades off, and I doubt the endusers are concerned about not matching on their Instagram pages. |

My friend coworker got his black Luna SD upper, however it didn’t appear to be “Luna Black,” it was just regular milspec black. He got his 35% off coupon card, but that discount expires in less than 6 months. The 35% coupon expires 8/1/2020 (which was kind of a bummer but I guess it’s better than nothing). The upper looked nice, although the staking job on the BCG has key didn’t seem as aggressive as it could have been. Despite all this, I can’t wait to get mine, hopefully it arrives before the end of February. Looks like Geissele is doing the best they can.

Still waiting.
I don’t really care though. I do wish I would have bought a DDC stripped upper to match the lower. But I was happy to get my order in when I did! |
|
I’m still waiting on two DDC lowers, a DDC buffer tube, and a lpk. Getting a little frustrated at this point.

@Outrider
Communication?? How about when Bill was suppose to update us on the MK16 rail bending issue after there testing was completed. He said he would update us after the holidays (Christmas 2018). He deleted all the posts on the forum and not one word about this issue from him since.... |

"All new orders placed after the Black Friday Sale, purchased at full price, will take shipping priority and will ship within 3 – 5 business days. "
80 days without any updates is enough. Now "7 to 10 business days" for a refund. 2 more Super Dutys available for those waiting. |

Wait so they’re shipping out newly placed orders before getting to the months-old BF orders?

Yup, cancelled all my orders. Bill, your company is now the laughing end of the gun industry. Stick to triggers

Got my orders in; ODG SD rifle, ADK signature rifle, BUIS and a few other randoms. The ODG is definitely not ODG but I still like it. All in great condition and no complaints.

Waiting on 2 DDC Upper and Lower sets...…. I called and spoke to someone at G (forget his name) on Friday. I inquired about my order and he looked it up. He said that the rest of the BF orders should be going out by the end of next week. So hopefully we all will be getting shipping notices by this Friday the 28th.
He also told me I would be getting an exclusive 35% off coupon. Honestly, I Do Not need a 3rd 35% off coupon where I have to spend more money after spending 2k on BF! I would rather see a free LPK or 2 sets of Ultra Duty Checkered Take Down Pins and Mag Releases for my 2 DDC Lowers. But I do want to Thank G for all the other items I received from my BF order, they are Very Nice and will make for 2 Great Builds!! |

Yeah, it's possible they will all be shipped by next week. But I'm not holding my breath.
I think we should all steady for the possibility that BF orders will still be going out come summer. |
