Anyone received their's yet? I placed my order for the 13.2" version on 2/18 and it is still on backorder.

Ordered a 13.2 and a 7 within probably 5-10 minutes of the initial email going out and they are on backorder. Just gonna have to be patient on this, at that price I'm sure they got a ton of orders.

I inquired about delivery on the LAT handguards yesterday. Dan told me that the LATs have started shipping, but due to the amount ordered it may be a couple weeks before some people see theirs, myself included.

From what it looks like, I wouldn’t be surprised if some of the models had ZERO units produced until they started to receive orders. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:
Quoted: I was hopeful they had a couple hundred units of each size ready to ship before taking orders. Oh well... coworkers that were waiting to see mine before they purchased have gone with other rails because they dont want to wait this long to complete a build. These were guys that I had talked up the rail to, and told them to wait for its release since it will be worth it... |

Quoted: He shouldn’t have listed for sale if he didnt have any to ship. pretty poor decision in my mind but I dont run a successful firearms company so what do I know. coworkers that were waiting to see mine before they purchased have gone with other rails because they dont want to wait this long to complete a build.

Some of the time complaints are killing me...
The prices on the rails and MBT are crazy....quality on them is crazy...so whats the big fucking deal to have to wait several weeks? More than worth the wait. |

...Guessing anyone who is bitchin' about LaRue wait times hasn't waited on a suppressor

Mark commented in the World War HG thread that there was an issue with the trademark on the name of the rails so the markings have to be slightly modified. That was the hold up. If you look at them on the website now the names are a bit different so that would make sense.

But....on a brand new product that I ordered an hour after release, I was a bit more optimistic that it would ship with a week or so. Because why make something available for purchase if you don’t have some inventory when you KNOW they will sell like hot cakes. |

While I would love to order and immediately get my stuff, I know going into a Larue order that there’s going to be a wait. Where else can you get a free float rail and awesome trigger for sub $200? Hopefully at some point Mark will get all theses wait times down. I can imagine that at some point, long waits for almost everything you make will affect business.

Order number 708888.... 7”. Forgot to order a barrel nut while buying my Raptor charging handle yesterday!!!! Current rail on the AR-47 has a built in barrel nut.... Which is why I’m changing it out. Built it out of mostly leftover parts just to get it built. Wife will never know better when I upgrade it!!!

So far it looks like only 13.2" have shipped? We are almost at a month since release / most of us ordered that day. I've got a 9" on backorder.
Getting antsy, I've got everything for my build except the rail |
|
Well come on 9”....
Glad they are getting some orders out the door. Maybe tomorrow will be my day... |
