Complete 16" midlength rifle shipped on 5/8/12. Order was placed on 2/1/12 with the only upgrade being a Troy rear folding sight. Looks like things are starting to move!

I've been waiting on my 10.5" upper with BAR since 2/29. Status is still "issued". I try to forget about it but was reminded today when my Magpul STR fde stock came. I really want to get this gun up and running. On a side note, my dealer got my Pirate lower within 2 weeks back in the fall. I don't know why that was so quick and this is dragging. I'm thinking about cancelling my order.

Anyone know what the turn around time is for colorfill once your lower has been assigned?

Done waiting. Order cancelled. What a waste of 6 months.

The ones that are getting their stuff seem to be getting at about 12 weeks. I'm willing to go that length of time (I'm only at 4 weeks now)...but if there are guys on here waiting for the 10.5 300BLK upper w/9 BAR and are past that timeframe I'd like to hear about it...I don't want to be held up 6months only to cancel an order. So, anyone have a prognosis on the 300BLK uppers?

I have heard ( ALL FIREARMS ) are from 90 days for standard stuff - being the fastest to further out for enhanced /special items from time of order. Thats what I was last told by spikes T recently like last week .

Yikes! If that's the case they really do need to shut down order taking to allow for catching up. Simply putting "out of stock" on items and not allowing backorders would work wonders. I've always had good luck with Spikes to this point and really do want to stay with them...

Most of these posts are scaring me. I mulled it over trying to find another brand that I could substitute and the only other one I wanted isnt accepting any more orders for the time being and would have cost another $200-300. I am hoping for the best and they are able to get me the gun in 6-8 weeks (Spikes you reading this?  ). I guess in the mean time I can collect magazines, sling, and other accessories.
