I can't check on your order because I don't know who you are, but in general terms, we are building and shipping anything and everything that we can. If we don't have the aprts that we would need to build soemthing (in this case potentially the 6.8 bolt or barrel required fo ryour build) it's not even in the line up. When whatever part hits that Production Control is waiting on, they'll pull the orders (from oldest to newest) and build everything they can, only holding a few parts back for warranty and other uses.
Thanks.

The downside of having more than 200 different barrel SKUs is that those in the highest demand get the greatest attention.
we have a the 6.8 SPC CAR-gas barrels on order (and have for quite a while). The last batch received only got us so far on the back-orders, and unfortunately, we didn't up to yours (we try to go in order by date).
Sorry.
