It's now for pre-order on their website! I just ordered one, can't wait to get it! Hopefully I'll be one of the first!
$212 shipped to me. |

One problem... Spike's wants to charge credit cards as soon as orders are placed, even though it's unclear when they're going to ship. This is tacky (and I think it violates MasterCard/Visa policy). Thats how our website does it. Its not because we choose to. If you order by phone you wont be charged until it ships. Thats why its CLEARLY posted on our website. From the website.. Keep in mind the website automatically charges your card the evening you place your order. |

Lots of businesses do that. That doesn't make it right. I don't mean to criticize Spike's, but there are plenty of other on-line retailers who can manage to accept backorders without charging until they ship. Sounds like Spike's needs a new webmaster. Now, should I get one of these, or one of CMMG's? Who has seen both? PS: I bought you an E. |

.Now, should I get one of these, or one of CMMG's? Who has seen both? While I disagree with your first pretense... I am VERY much interested in this question - if there's much of a difference at all. I've got three CMMG uppers, and I'm looking for a .22 kit - which to choose is a rough question. I'm already set on a ST .22lr MRP barrel, but I'd like to run my CMMG 2-Stage lower and M4A1 upper with the convo kit too.... How different are the ST and CMMG units? |

It's only a violation of policy IF the business or seller doesn't disclose information like that ahead of time. If the seller fully disclosed pre-orders, back orders etc, it's ok and in placing the order, you agree to this. |

Finally!!!! I have been waiting for Spikes .22 bolt kit!
How long of a wait are you HONESTLY looking at? I see it says November it will start shipping, I don't mind waiting, but I hate to be told X time, and it turns out to be double or triple that time. edit- also, let me ask an extremely dumb question... im very new to the AR, litterally just got my first RRA ar. Have yet to shoot it. Im pretty familer already with the parts, function, etc. anyways, is the .22 bolt kit, just the bolt itself? meanings a drop replacment in for my current bolt... or the whole BCG? Im assuming BCG,, but wanted to make sure.....  Got a picture of your bolt?

Looks like you are going to bitch about something and Spikes doesn't need it. |
