I ordered parts for my first build through my local shop by their recommendation of the product. I was expecting a wait but it has already been double what i was originally told. I ordered the parts around middle of Feb.
>16" M4LE Upper, 7" Quad Rail, rated for 5.56mm, w/Front Sight Post - Part # STU5025-R7S >Complete Lower, Standard LPK, Black w/ M4 Stock -Part # STLC200-SBS >Spikes Tactical Micro Gas Block (.750) - Part # SUGB120
That is main parts i ordered. Is there a problem with some of them? I am not complaining but trying to just get some info. The shop is not being very helpful. They dont realize that informed customers are more patient than uninformed
Thanks

Currently we are stuck holding on bolts and gas tubes. Once our next shipments arrive we'll be cranking out a lot of items that are past their original estimates. We have also reached out to find additional vendors to cover these gaps.
At this time, many of our vendors are being stretched thin by panic buy increases from all of their manufacturing customers.

Thanks for some honest info. At least i know what holdup is. Gun shop is ticking me off bc they say well. Takes 5 weeks. Then they chng it 6-8 weeks. Lastly they said 8 -12 weeks. Something new every time just like they make it up s they go along and never try to find out why. Anyway thanks for your help
Btw. Any estimate when you may get some of your feb orders out?

They probably won't give a lead time, cause they've been burned before. I made a purchase in January and because the product didn't meet Spikes quality standards the shipment was sent back from their shop. They're working really hard to get your order out, and be sure it will be of the highest quality. ...but yes it's hard to be patient

Anything left from Feb is likely just waiting on us getting these couple of key items from our vendor. Sadly, I cannot give an estimate because there would be no guarantee behind it.
