I got the call from Diana this afternoon and a shipment notification a couple hours later on my complete ST-15 Midlength. EOD tomorrow marks 17 weeks from when I ordered.

Thats awesome, I'm sure you'll enjoy it...though that really sucks for me, Cause as of tomorrow I'll only be on week 8, With my luck mine will be here in the middle of deer season, and then I wont have time to play with it

My mid length came today and its spectacular. I ordered on April 4 which equals to a long time ( but well worth it). Fit and finish is great and as previously said on the forum customer service has been great. Now I have to find time to go shooting.

Wow, don't know how this happened, but I ordered my complete middy on 6/24 and got the shipping email yesterday. It will be here Mon. Little over 6 weeks. I'll take it!

I ordered my complete rifle on June 01: - Standard lower w/ pinned MOE stock. - Mid-length upper w/ 14.5 LW barrel, pinned Dynacomp, 12”SAR, and MBUS. - Also included five 15-round Pmags for New Jersey. Still no word.
Not sure how 'sideseal' cut in line. I suspect I might be waiting on one of my custom features. I hope it is nothing stupid like waiting on the 15-round PMAGs (which I see are out of stock everywhere). If that is the case, screw the mags, ship the rifle and send the mags later. Or, block and pin some sandard Spikes mags. Could it be the LW barrel?
If anyone has recently received shipment on anything similar, please post your order date.

Mine is a "plain-jane" stock middy with the samson rear sight. Dont know if your custom order is the reason for the hold up but it would make sense.

Man, I ordered May 3, and every time my phone beeps to alert me of an email, I hope it's from Spikes, but so far no dice.
Now I'm afraid it will come in while I'm out of town this month :/
The wait is getting harder, but I keep telling myself it's going to be worth it...

So I ordered just a mid-length upper with 16" barrel, 12" SAR, and MBUSs on 6/26 at the local gun shop (which means it probably got called in to Spikes on the 6/27). After reading sideseal's post, should I think that my wait is almost over? Or are there parts of my order that would drive a longer wait time?
This whole waiting thing is a drag...

Just picked mine up.  I probably would have bought it somewhere else if I had known it was going to take 17 weeks instead of 6, but I'm glad to have it now and can't wait to go shooting again.
