None...hope you didn't go crazy.

Well....after 479 days of waiting...I finally got the call that it arrived. Not sure what to do at this point...Do I hug it...or shun it to the gun safe for betraying me. Still cant pick it up till Monday.

Just an update. 416 Days now since I ordered my LAR8 EO. Plus add on the half month from when the dealer pre-ordered it. So more like 430.

I'd order some...but I doubt they would make it here before the 1st. Damn Colorado. Luckily I travel a lot :D

My LGS called RRA yesterday to get an update on my rifle (LAR-8 EO) for me. Apparently my rifle was an order the LGS put in almost a month (mid june 2012) before I bought it (July 5th 2012). So I am further along than I thought. Bad news is, RRA told them the next batch of barrels is going to rifles ordered in May. And they are estimating another 5-6 months at least before they get to mine. I can't believe this snowball effect...18 months for a rifle? What do you think? Really conservative estimate on delivery, or are people who order now gonna die of old age before their rifles come in?

Well I still havn't recieved my EO yet, but I shot my father in laws and it has a nice clean trigger pull. I have heard a few other complaints though, but rarely. There always could be the bad apple in the bunch. Mag release will loosen up over time. Thermold mags are what you get for the money. Never had any issues...I have ran mine several time through other peoples LAR's with no issues. You will need to file the tab on the front of the mag...dont go over board...small amounts at a time. I knew someone that filed it down at the range, and it seemed to hold. Well once he got up to shoot and pressed it into his shoulder the mag shifted and dropped out because he got a little zealous with his file. After that you should have no problems with them dropping. And as far as the scuffs...I blame the cheap blue case. They dont fit super snug and the peices somewhat move around during shipment.

Looks great...love the look of the ACE stock on it. I see you got the useless blue case with yours...thought they got rid of those and started shipping them with standard foam lined cases.

Good to know they didn't. I was half expecting a price increase till I saw your post. My LGS is military friendly...so I doubt they will try to gouge me.

Congrats GS!!! What was your final day count? I'm sitting right at 320 right now.

I guess we will see, but the free loaders will aways vote to get the grab bag of goodies. We are way out numbered...especially if amnesty goes through.

Damn, was hoping they would catch up soon. Guess not. Probably wont see mine until late summer since I ordered on July 5th..

Geez 399 days...guess I have at least another 100 to go.

I would hate to see what the delivery time will be on this one. I'm sure orders double, trippled, or worse after the 17th. In the mean time...welcome to the waiting game.

It was through his LGS. And I hear you on that...I am trying to keep from buying anything else so I will still have enough to pay off the rifle when it comes in.
