Any check out and see Larue new integral release that they did for a SOCOM Integrated Upper project. Would be all over it especially at the 20% off right now if I didn’t just have my wife gift me one of their rifles for Xmas. Damnit Larue you and Noveske are gonna be the death of me. Already planning on their 6.5 Creedmore M110 Build for next Christmas and their Suppressor too. Now it looks like I might be in for a dedicated upper. Especially since you can add a lower. Now I remember why I don’t have a credit card. Haha
Take a look. Just got the email the other day.
Larue just released there Grendel / Integrated Suppressor on a 11.5”. The SUURG 2.0
https://www.larue.com/products/larue-ult...suurg-kit/
Comes: Not assembled
And some manufactures say not to do it with their platform. Heck even my current build I will be runn8ng either an AAC SDN6 or my Liberty Mystic X. Pressures are not any different than a 556, don’t get why one would say not too unless their bolt is inferior and has issues with the over gassing?

when you buy this do you get the upper complete without the suppessor that is held by your dealer?? is that how it works?

Yes you get the upper and they ship suppressor to your dealer when the dealer transfer comes through waiting on your paperwork.
Btw I beleive it is unassembled? Like their other kits. Have to double check on that contact Larue.

Wait shouldn’t be more than a uu kit. Mark s hell bent on making this enjoyable. His words. The plan is to send th Upper sans the suppressor to the customer to use while waiting the NFA jail time for the can. Can’t beat that at a now promised minus 90days in hand for upper parts, think it will end up only being better too as I see a trend of lowering all perceptions of waiting for a Larue product especially rifles and uppers.

has anyone actually ordered one and have it yet??? my wait is almost at eleven weeks now. i was told that they are making the 5.56 ones first. hmmmm
the 8-12 weeks that was estimated seems to be too optimistic. they take your money when you order it and all you can do is wait and wait. i ordered on the third day they were available. i hope its worth the loooong wait.

It is. Worry not, you can trust in the goods.

You could ask for your money back and build a Frankengun with an Olympic-quality barrel. Almost guaranteed it will shoot smaller groups than the laRue.

i ordered the suurg at a discounted price. i also ordered a ultimate upper kit too. i did get that in a somewhat timely manner. the matching lower i ordered is still in progress.
my patience is wearing thin now. i do have other grendels but that suurg was very enticing.

So my gunsmith ruined my Larue 6.5 Grendel, he opted to buy me an Odin Works barrel having the same specs as the Larue. He tried buying one from Larue but, they do not sell just 6.5 Grendel barrels, they sell kits. He was very apologetic, sincere, and willing to correct the situation. Is there a barrel that is equivalent to the 6.5 Grendel Larue? I will not accept anything less, suggestions please and thank you.

If the gunsmith trashed your Larue, he just bought an upper and gas system, you get the new barrel from the ultimate upper kit.
I don't know that you can compare another MFG to Larue, or anyone else. All have their own reps.
Bartlien, Shilen, Krieger, Proof Research, or Lilja would be about the only ones that I would accept as replacements if I had a tier one barrel trashed by someone other than me.

LaRue makes a proprietary barrel metal, treatment, and coating. All of which are unavailable from any other source. I don’t believe you can compare the two. Let him know I might be interested in what he winds up with apart from the barrel, if he makes it right and buys one to correct the snafu.

I saw that and understand they just sell kits but i think if you bought a kit from them you could send the barrel back and pay for a replacement. All my experiences with larue have been met with great customer service.
