View Full Version : Larue OBR Order Time
I know a couple others here have OBRs on order and I’m curious if you’ve received any updates or info on delivery time.
I ordered in mid Dec and I was told 4 – 6 months at the time. I just spoke with them again while I was placing another order and I was told mid 2014 on my OBR order.

308? I was going to order 5.56 along with a friend, but changed my mind because of the quoted 8 months waiting time. He got his in 6 months.
LaRue will *NOT* give lead times right now - other than "Its going to be a long wait..."
I put my order in November for a .308 OBR - I am guessing it will be ready in June of 2014. If it's sooner - yeah me!
If you are really really curious you can go to the tracking thread on the LaRue forums. Bunch of people have entered in their order numbers and when they receive stuff. By one person's guess they have ~60k rifles to build.

I can only imagine how much backorder they have this year.
8-12 months is what a little bird told me. Top end parts sourced from outside are the hold up.
Good news is... LaRue won't be going out of business anytime soon. I want to get a .308 system from them, but I'll hold off until I can actually get one without waiting so long I forgot I ordered. [Coffee]

I've been waiting since August.

Actually they will but they may just be giving a current worst case scenario. 15 month from now on a .556 ordered in Dec is what I was told this morning.

Best advice I've been given about LaRue: make the order, forget about it, be glad and act surprised when it shows up.

What is your order for? Sounds like the mid 2014 may be accurate.

Im not posting up here what I ordered, but I took possession of the applicable parts in January.... Just waiting for the rest of it to be made.
Mine came next day....in a dream I had!
I've been waiting on a risr for 4 weeks now!!!
Things are nuts. I really want a Costa rifle but who knows when the next ones will be built
