LaRue Rifle kit $891

[fatty 241]

Bhunted - I feel the same way.  Had this in my cart a few times being such a great deal, but passed.  No room in the safe anymore anyways.  More money to go toward pimping out my tavor later on.  I never shoot past 50 yard lol.  How accurate does my rifle need to be at that laughable distance lol

Gotcha lol. Made me nervous for a sec that im gettin ahead of myself.

Gotta stretch out my wings sooner or later. Im extremely handy, tbh, but given the extremely small margin of error in a firearm i try not to test my luck. Lucky you with your friggin SBRs. Enjoy the freedom.

 

 

 

*Update for NJ Purchasers*:

Just spoke to LaRue and it is MANDATORY that you purchase the illegal Brake. It's part of the package deal. They basically said to just sell it on eBay and buy a different brake.

Same, jus called today also. Was told should go on at least the end of the week... or longer. 

 

 

 

No pressure!

Big family meeting tonight to discuss this.

LaRue is having a smoking sale on a rifle kit. It comes with everything you need to build a high quality "Tier 1" rifle except the lower receiver.

Ill have to sell off some extra sights for whatever i can get for em so i don't go bankrupt, though, cause i just bought a VP9 on gunbroker like 3 days ago too... FML... Anyone interested in an ACOG or somethin??

VP9, two ACOG's, new Upper. I remember what it was like to have disposable income...

I'm far from an accurate shot, still, unfortunately, but at least this way i can't blame the POS Rifle and i KNOW for sure that its me that sucks.....! LOL
At least i can hit a 10" plate @ 200 yards... 

[Zeke 5,504]

[WP22 1,558]

Call now and make sure you get it delivered where you can take a sign.... never mind. Prolly getting delivered to your station 

[High Exposure 5,664]

Nope, actually getting delivered to my house. I got it in UDE, maybe it takes a little longer for the color.

My Mother-In-Law is home at the house all week, she can sign for it.

 

ETA: Just checked my account at LaRue. No tracking number yet. Now, I need to order a lower.... Decision decisions...

I'm still waiting for delivery confirmation as well. I contacted them a while ago and they said "just a few days". Been like 2 weeks since... 
I ordered it in black with FDE poly kit. They said its because so many people ordered it assembled. 
I ordered an Aero lower, in the end. Under 90$ delivered, worst case scenario if i find something i like better itll go into the safe until the next build.

Must be...
It's been 2 weeks since they said it would ship out any day now.. Lol...
Already spent a week looking for, then ordering a Lower, and i've already picked it up along with a handgun that i ordered... Going to hopefully have some time tomorrow to play with it. Got me a VP9, but have to switch out the backstraps and what not to the smaller sizes.

Ya, ummmm, prolly gonna burn my permits... this thing was un expected. And MrsZ still needs one. I shop for 2, always!

pitty me

[Lambo2936 297]

I just sold my 1911 a minute ago, so i basically flipped from the 1911 to the VP9 and pocketed a bit of $$.

[Lambo2936 297]

Has anyone else gotten tracking info? Starting week 4 now, and my millenial instant gratification BS is driving me nuts. That and the fact that everything else is now sitting and waiting for the darn kit.

[Lambo2936 297]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH IT FINALLY SHIPPED! Super excited haha. I got my punch kit and all of my tools and stuff in.
Now i'm just missing the most important part; i have no idea what i'm doing. Yay for google. If anyone is down to swing by on  a weekend or something i'm all for learning. Have a nice setup going on in my garage with a pretty ridiculous supply of various tools (not too much specialty gun stuff, unfortunately, but working on that)..

[High Exposure 5,664]

I got an email. They are shipping mine. They just wanted to know if I wanted the brake pinned before they sent it.

[Lambo2936 297]

Nice. Looks like mine will arrive thursday.  I thought you didnt purchase one?

[High Exposure 5,664]

Ha! You thought wrong!

I couldn't pass this up.

[fatty 241]

damn I wish I had the funds to get this.

Do what i did and go work the corner. Just don't let HE catch ya...

 

That said, i got a set of blocks to work on the upper and lower using a standard vise, but what sized vise should i look at getting if gunsmithing is its primary purpose? Ill probably mount and dismount it from my bench for when i need it. Came as a set with the universal tool thing, i forget what its called... for the stock and various other funky nuts and such... need to learn some technical terms...
