Some of you all are making me jealous. I ordered my 16" mid complete rifle with a billet receiver set and NiB BCG on 29 November. Still waiting... All well, the wait will be worth it.

In case you haven't spoken with us lately, the biggest hold up right now on such a build would be the billet upper receivers. Sorry for the delay, but the last couple batches of the receivers were returned to vendor after they failed our QC checks.

I called a couple weeks ago, and as I understand you are looking maybe end of march to mid April. I do thank you all for your great customer service.

We try our best. Sometimes our hands are tied and we aren't pleased when giving bad news.

Yeah, you going on 4-5 months on a build is crazy. I'm going on 8 weeks and quite frankly this will be my last order form Spikes in regards to a complete rifle. While they are good, there are other comparable AR makers out there that manufacture a lot of their own parts and thus the crazy Spikes delay time frames are avoided. For example, NOVESKE. Their turnaround time is 4 weeks right now, that is way more reasonable than 4-5-6 months! Especially when they have already taken your $2100 hard earned money.

I ordered a NJ compliant Middy back in July 2011 got it the second week of December I do love the rifle but the wait was horrible.
