Anybody ordered directly from Rock River? - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

Just wondering if any of you guys had ever ordered directly from Rock River Arms?

I ordered a few things from them last night, but have not received a confirmation email, even though my receipt stated that I would receive such an email in minutes. Honestly, I am getting a little aggravated now.

Anybody had similar experiences with them? Thanks.

I bought a high riser scope mount from them.I got it about 2 weeks later.

ordered a flattop M3 upper---took 8 weeks

pssst - they're located in Illinois, too

i stopped even considering RRA for AR part's due to thier crazy long waits on everything RRA.

i dont see the need to give them my hard earned $, when i can get parts that are just as good (if not better) faster, and for the same price, or less.

ive read of 8-12 month wait's on rifle's, upper's, and lower's from RRA...thats just crazy to me when my LMT upper was here from a diffrent state in 3 day's.

The only things I ordered were a spare bolt, firing pin, and the "oh shoot' kit. Surely it wont take that long to get such a small package from Illinois to Georgia.

I love their rifles, but this may be the last RRA parts I buy.

Historically, RRA has given priority to complete rifles. Uppers with stainless barrels or different twist rates would have longer wait times.

To me, 8 weeks isn't too unreasonable. I personally think it's better than buying one from a shop that has been finger effed to death by tire kickers.

I got mine back when they were about $700ish, and it was an 8 week wait back then ('02). At the current prices some people are paying, I might consider other options as well. One thing's for sure, RRA makes a nice rifle, whether the Mil-Spec Police think so or not.

Anyone that orders from the RRA factory what they could get from Pete at Rock River Arms Products should not be trusted!

Everything is call for prices.How are his prices?

I don't know about wait times for parts, but I'm at 12 weeks for my entry tactical.
