AA Upper Lead Times

[stanprophet]

I just wanted to point out that GA Precision, LaRue, and other highly sought after rifle builders have the same back-logs as AA, and people just wait without complaining. I've watched it for years now on Sniper's Hide. There was one exception when a guy had problems with his rifle, and he started berating and bashing GA Precision on SH. People came down on him like coordinated artillery and mortar fire, and George Gardner himself posted from his mobile that he was sorry he couldn't respond within the 8hr the complainer expected, as he was on his way to a family funeral down in Texas.

Patience is a virtue when waiting on premium products. For some reason, AA gets defecated on, while others are exempt. I can't figure it out.

I see this as well, We waited for quite some time for the uppers to come in, but we knew going in that it could be a lengthy time. Unfortunately panic buying and market uncertainty is what is driving much of this. My dad has 3 stripped lowers on order from AA for almost a year now, we will patiently wait. I have been known to be impatient at times, but the wait time on my SBR was just training for today's market! Heck now I have the paperwork done on number 2, and the wait times are now around 14-18 months.

I think the wait on the uppers were between 6-8 months, but these were just the 16" M4 style uppers, so probably much easier to get the parts needed for those. I know where I am going for a 50 Beowulf upper, if it takes a year or 2 so be it.
