    Anyone received an order for a complete upper from LaRue recently?

    I know everything is backed up right now but wondering if anyone can let me know if they have received an upper from LaRue. I placed my order on 8/4/2020 for a LaRue Ultimate Upper, 6.5 Grendel. I was hoping to get in before we went on vacation in 3 weeks. Thanks.

    Best place to get a feel for that is here:

    Be aware they don't rigidly follow a "first in, first out" policy. Someone else's cancellation can result in another person getting a rapid delivery. I had one ship the next day when the current wait was 3 months. Luck of the draw there.

    They ARE slammed though, it took 5 months for a 13.2" M-Lok hand guard to ship to me last week, they were running about 2-4 weeks on the order prior to that one.

      My Mama always said "Expectation is better than realization." Patience, it's so well worth the wait. I have a 16" predatAR, 12" LAT, MBT straight bow & a 204 back-ordered since 9/5/20. Mark mfgs amazing kit...

          If you call them and pay the freight they'll split it into 2 orders and ship the in stock items. I did that when one of the items was 6 weeks. BTW: the 6 week item shipped in 6 weeks. They have pretty good control there.

            The current wait time for an Ultimate Upper from Larue Tactical is...

            8 weeks.

            I called and spoke to them Wednesday about another order and asked this very question.

              Ordered just over 9 weeks ago on August 4th. Hopefully it is very close to shipping. But, I should probably call them as some of you other guys have done. Thanks.

                I ordered one and after waiting several months I canceled it after they couldn't tell me how long it was going to take. Once they started selling their Billet lowers to the public I ordered one of those and it shipped within a few days. I ended up finding one of their 13" Stealth 2.0 uppers on gunbroker for $270. I am just waiting on the Lilja barrel to complete the build. It currently has a 16" Wilson Combat Barrel in it now. I do like the way the upper and lower connect to the receiver. You will not be unhappy with your purchase.

                  Thanks Hickory Nut. I am trying to be patient. Why are you switching barrels from Wilson Combat to Lilja? Just looking for an education, definitely not questioning your decision. Thanks again.

                    I just purchased too many barrels lately. 1- 12" Monster, 2 - 16" monster, 1 - 18" Wilson Combat (sold), 1- 16" Wilson Combat. The Monster barrels have shot great for me so far with the Hornady SST and ELDM. The Wilson's didn't like the SST's or ELDM's. I have had that Lilja Barrel on order for a while and think it will fit perfectly in my Larue Upper/lower set.

                      I called LaRue today and left a voice message. I hope they are better about returning phone calls than emails. Certainly don't want to cancel it but was hoping to have it by the time I went to visit my son in a couple of weeks.

                          I seriously doubt they will get it to you by then but I hope they do. Their Upper Receiver is top quality and their machining is bad ass. I am happy with all of the products that I have purchased so far. Their MBT and Scope Mounts are hard to beat.

                            I actually purchased their scope mount and rings. I have a Leupold scope as well. It has been over 2 months. How long do you think I will have to wait?

                              It is hard to say. I've never had good results with their customer service answering emails or the phone. I have (2) of their C.A.N Scope Mounts and they are solid.
