I get it....you just want to see if
A) it really possibly could happen ( not likely) B) you saw on the Science Fiction channel that Larue products are made by "extra-terrestrials" and you want to see how could the aliens build gun shit ( very good) C) you could get evryone on Arf.com in to a pissing match with lots of drama ( yep, you will) |

Please accept my most sincerest apologies. Im sorry for rushing to judgement. |

LaRue broke my credit card today but I suppose I'm partly to blame.
On the plus side, I should have my upper in about a week and the whole CC issue was cleared up with the bank. Apparently when you pick up 1000 rounds of ammo and buy a Stealth upper on the same day they get worried.

I would venture to say that most people who have ARMS gear mounted on a rifle that isn't a safe queen have already seen broken ARMS gear firsthand. Both of my TA-11s sit on ARMS 19s mounts-I bought them before I knew better. One of those 19s mounts is no longer tight on the rail, and neither of them will hold a decent zero. Having to re-zero my rifles every time I hit the range is a pain in the ass, and with the current price of decent ammunition it's pretty aggravating.
I'm about to buy an optic for an LE6920, and part of that budget includes replacing both of my ACOG mounts. So far my ARMS BUIS is doing okay, but that's going to be replaced eventually too. I'm sure that LaRue gear can break-in theory so could an eight pound steel cannonball. Saw a picture of a broken FUG once-it looked like the owner took a hammer to it. The person posting the pics had a grudge against LaRue-so it wouldn't surprise me if that's what happened. |

I also just got a billet Larue upper with M4 cuts from BCM about 20 mins ago. Dillo Dust is great. The paprika in it lends itself to a nicely smoked steak very well. It just intensifies the sweet smokiness. And, it looks like yours doesn't work any more because it is EMPTY! In all seriousness, finding broken LaRue stuffs may be difficult because of the fact that they will replace whatever breaks for whatever the reason. Unless you have the instincts of a photo journalist after a very harsh and violent exchange, the opportunity to take a picture would escape you as soon wake up in the morgue
Edit to add: I'm seriously considering just sending them twenty bucks and a note asking for a couple bottles of that stuff just to see what happens. I'm almost out, and they don't sell it on their website. I can't afford to build a new gun every time I want more Dust.

You havn't gotten any pics for a couple reasons:
1-LaRue shit doesn't break. This is because its made in Texas. Its Texas tough. 2-LaRue shit probably wouldn't even break if it was made in some pussy state like California. 3-IF Larue shit breaks, your rifle probably broke it, and if your rifle messed up that bad to break it, your probably dead. So obviously not taking pictures of your blemished LaRue mount. Hope that helped.

1.There is no theory of evolution. Just a list of creatures LaRue has allowed to live.
2.Outer space exists because it's afraid to be on the same planet with LaRue. 3.LaRue is the reason why Waldo is hiding. 4.LaRue can lead a horse to water AND make it drink. 5.Contrary to popular belief, America is not a democracy, it is a LaRuetatorship. ...lol love thier stuff....although my brothers dog tore their hat up... gotta count |

Warning: Pregnant women, the elderly, and children under 10 should avoid prolonged exposure to LaRue Gear.
Caution: LaRue Gear may suddenly accelerate to dangerous speeds. LaRue Gear contains a liquid core, which, if exposed due to rupture, should not be touched, inhaled, or looked at. Do not use LaRue Gear on concrete. Discontinue use of LaRue Gear if any of the following occurs: * itching * vertigo * dizziness * tingling in extremities * loss of balance or coordination * slurred speech * temporary blindness * profuse sweating * or heart palpitations. If LaRue Gear begins to smoke, get away immediately. Seek shelter and cover head. LaRue Gear may stick to certain types of skin. When not in use, LaRue Gear should be returned to its special container and kept under refrigeration. Failure to do so relieves the makers of LaRue Gear, and its parent company, LaRue Tactical, of any and all liability. Ingredients of LaRue Gear include an unknown glowing green substance which fell to Earth, presumably from outer space. LaRue Gear has been shipped to our troops in Saudi Arabia and is being dropped by our warplanes on Iraq. Do not taunt LaRue Gear. LaRue Gear comes with a lifetime warranty.

Well the anodizing is completely gone of my first dillo's hind leg it's chipped really bad and the bottom of the tail looks pretty rough........ but it still opens beer so i guess it's technically not completely broken.
But i'm going to give it hell tonight to try to accommodate this thread

Although I think Larue is way overpriced, I looked at those pics and saw that it broke in a severly cold environment. Any plastic/polymer will shatter at super cold temps. I broke a manadnoc PR24 in the winter in 20 below weather. Manadnoc batons and PR24's are considered indestructible. I would assume a Larue Verticle grip is no exception. Not a fair pic. I still think LaRue is way overpriced ..... but, lets be fair. Steel fails if it's too cold. |
