Doug,
Going to go against the grain here but be careful about hanging all these doodads on your rifle.
You'll find it makes your stick unwieldly and heavy.

Or they haven't shipped to him before and need a copy of his FFL.Sounds like maybe they had your FFL on file and they need to verify he's still in business and a valid licensee. Totally a WAG on my end.
My issue is if any of that is the case. Why didn't they say something at the time of purchase instead of now and losing a week with something that could of be dealt with immediately?Or they haven't shipped to him before and need a copy of his FFL.
Maybe they read some of your posts on here yesterday...My issue is if any of that is the case. Why didn't they say something at the time of purchase instead of now and losing a week with something that could of be dealt with immediately?
The guy that takes the order is probably not the one that does the transfer.My issue is if any of that is the case. Why didn't they say something at the time of purchase instead of now and losing a week with something that could of be dealt with immediately?
Good backup plan.Also... getting pretty concerned that I may never actually receive the LaRue AR15 due to a potential change in administration in the White House. Sooo... thinking about getting one I can find in stock, somewhere, if that's even possible. Not looking to spend what I spent on the LaRue and may start looking at the Smith&Wesson - again.
Got'cha... I don't have any issue with the lead time from LaRue. They told me up front - 6 months. I suppose it could be sooner or even later. But... I keep seeing shit and fan getting closer and closer together! My very first post on this web site stated "I don't know what's coming but - I'm trying to get ready for it!" In that regard - nothing has changed!!! But yeah... I ain't heard nobody complaining about having too many AR15's.From my experience ordering from Larue (ordered several during the o'bummer years for customers), they are most likely working to get to your build. There are most likely several in que. The paperwork portion is just a formality and as @toddnjoyce stated, should have no effect on your build. I know it's hard to be patient (try getting a suppressor and waiting on that), but they will be diligently working towards the end goal, getting you the rifle you ordered. Also, they will most likely throw in some Dillo Dust and a keychain.
As far as getting a second rifle, I'd put that into work, never hurts to have a spare.
actually... recently Academy has had fairly good inventory of the 5.56 and 7.62x39 calibers and their pricing is acceptable. Just judging as an observer it looks like, for the previous 2-3 weeks, the ammo mfgs. concentrated on rifle ammunition as it was staying in inventory much longer than what has been normal. At the same time 9mm, in quantities, became way more difficult to locate. As of yesterday it seems the pistol ammo is back in inventory a little stronger than it had been being. All of this could be driven by primer availability as well.
I think I want to stay with a Semi-automatic whatever caliber/style I end up with.
Thus far no one has commented on pistol caliber rifles. Bad idea? Specifically I'd be looking at a rifle 9mm.
Yup to everything you said. I made the decision to go with the 5.56 AR. The idea is to use a CZ 75 SP-01 Phantom for HD, a Sig P365 for PD and a FNS-9C for backup. Then use the 5.56 AR for threats that none of the previous choices would be a good fit for.Most of 9mm rounds are designed for pistol, so putting them through a 16" barrel may affect their performance. But I have to be honest, It is not a bad choice for home defense. The 556 and 762 could be overpowered for the urban environment. Those could penetrate the walls too easily.
