Is Mark a marketing genius? All of a sudden everyone has his companies' name in their mouths. All for a small 200 unit run of anodized retardation.

I love it. We're all seething and Mark is feeding into and off of it.


I think you're overestimating our reactions. Most of us are looking at this and wondering why he would dedicate machine time to this project when he can't fulfill orders on other products that are always months out.


Yup. I don’t think this is doing him any good, especially amongst newer consumers.


He's got years of backorders.... mind you that's a common complaint

Is years of back orders a good thing?


No?

I’ve bought Larue products since he was just selling a handful of mounts years and years ago.
I’ve got a PredatOBR that I’ve sent two barrels back to get replaced because they shot like shit. And the new barrels are not great either.

His response, “If you aren’t shooting 168 federal gold match then it’s your problem” Black hills M118LR isn’t good enough. (Yes I know it’s not precision hand loaded ammo).

I gave the Siete a chance and it’s ok. I think one review said it best, it’s a solid first effort. But it’s not great.

I’ve kinda soured on Larue in the last few years. I’d have more respect for the man if he answered questions with reason instead of personal attacks. His hate for Geissele cracks me up.

Prefacing this with; own larue products and Geissele products.

How is that scummy? Don’t want it. Don’t buy it.

How many morons here pay 3-4x over cost of just an aimpoint battery cap that has the KAC logo on it? The magazine thing has been done for years with multiple other brands as well. Sometimes cheap. Sometimes more expensive.

I own a few larue products. There are still products Larue makes that I want, but are backordered. This is not one of them.

When I see something like this produced I think.. if resources are being made to make a new product like this, the backordered items wont be back in stock anytime soon, and I might as well order what I want elsewhere.

Some people still have no issues ordering items backordered for a very long time. Im not one of them.

No, it isn't. Do you think it costs a company nothing to procure, stock, sell, employ people with probably decent pay and benefits.

Do you think when a company buys or produces a product they can just sell it at exact cost and make no profit.

I’m still struggling to see why this ever came out, let alone came out without a way to adjust the sights L/R. Based on his IG posts, you may be close at 10yds, off at 25yds and by 35+ yards you have to aim off of target.

I didnt say people didnt have a choice in buying them or not, im saying it was scummy to do, and it was.
Seems to have been around a time when a TON of new  and naive firearm owners were coming into the mix after riots/covid/etc. I bet that wasnt by accident lol.

If you think pulling that shit is a noble thing to do thats on you, I call it scummy though.

Never said anything about being noble. However it’s a standard practice that many retailers do. I have mags marked surplus ammo and arms that are the same way. Marked up from what they cost all because an etching on the floor plate.

It is what it is you’re free to spend your dollars elsewhere. As am I.

At this point the only item from Larue i have left is one of those little carry bags.  Kinda like a man purse.  Sold the OSR(remember before OBR it was OSR) sold all the mounts, gave away the dillo dust and dillos over time and i think i still have some hats in a box somewhere.  2009 era was peak Larue and that was a LONG time ago.

@Nexttime

I was collaborating with the guy that made that model.   This past weekend we turned it into this:






The LaRpe Tactical C-word

Have you ever wished your AR had the sight radius of a Glock 26?

Have you been lusting over the new Larue C-note but cannot afford it because you blew all your cash on cocaine?

I've been there, so has my wife’s boyfriend, and so has Mark Larue.

Introducing the new C-word, from LaRpe tactical. Just like the original, you don't have to worry about dead batteries.

It may not be obvious at first, but having a shorter sight radius is superior to a longer sight radius. It is hard for me to articulate why, because I have been awake for 4 days straight.

The LaRpe C-word, for when you need to make the money shot, but you have no money.
