Go now!
Remember, gas blocks are .625" for PredatAR, .75" for Stealth. Set screw spacing is .45" You're welcome! Long live Mark Larue. Time to retune my buffer systems... JP SCS + SLR Sentry?  |

In for a 7.62 tAR barrel.
Thanks for the heads up. ETA: looks like LaRue doesn’t carry the .625 gas block for 7.62 anymore. SLR it is. |

I’m curious if all the barrels will ship. Most say ship in 1-3 weeks. I saw optics planet shows some in stock then some with an eta. Wonder how that works.
Some on optics planet show in stock and have an inventory number. Others show weeks or month eta. |

I hope so, otherwise I’m going to have some stuff to sell. lol I already ordered everything but the gas block so I can put a 16” tAR in my 7.62 UU that has an 18” stealth currently. |

@Ajcrash
I would call them. I don’t see these orders being filled. They had a few barrels in stock according to optics planet. Then (I’m guessing) as they sold they went to back order ship in a few weeks. I’m just not confident there’s any for example 18” tAR 308 barrels that will fill that back order. |

It’s not that they are bad companies. It’s that they had them in stock next day shipping… then went to a month eta on shipping. I think it’s an automated thing for back orders.
I’ve had optics planet put something on forever back order until I cancelled it. Knowing Predatar barrels aren’t currently manufactured has me thinking the orders will not get filled. I’d definitely call them. |

Larue being on DVor plus the other goings on, including that stupid steel optic thing the other month, gives me the going out of business vibe. I don't know if it's just me or if anyone else is getting that feeling. I hope not, he makes good stuff.
But, there's quite a few other companies that make stuff that's as capable, and his prices no longer reflect the edge he had over most of the market 10 years ago. That and his wait times have hurt him. |

Fewer product offerings, increasing prices, and going to a retail sales model all point to possible sale of the business. |

Mostly all A3, good prices though.
I was looking for an M4 5.56 14.5 to put in a M4 stealth 2.0 chassis. Debated that 300blk 14.5 but that doesn't make much sense to me having that long of a barrel in 300blk. |

He did just buy at least 3 more haas cnc machines. Posted it on X. Not sure if that’s a going out of business move.
I’m hoping for a PredatAR 308 limited run with adjustable gas block. |

Sold it to one of my bros when I needed cash for another project. I wish he'd make 12" and 14.5" PredatAR barrels. I bet they'd sell like hotcakes. |

Just a guess, but the 7.62 tAR barrels may be leftovers from the UU kits. Seems like quite a few of those uppers made it to both optics plantain primary arms.

All while reducing the load on manning phones and emails from countless idiots wondering why their widget hasn’t shipped yet. Raising prices and streamlining your product offering were good business moves, even if it did squeeze out my favorite product, the tAR chassis. |

What SR25/LMT/DPMS style stripped uppers are compatible with 308 predatar barrels with rifle feed ramps? I want to grab one but cant find that info, most seem to have m4 ramps.

Some on optics planet show in stock and have an inventory number. Others show weeks or month eta. I ordered one of the 16" 7.62 tAR barrels from OP last night. A 10% code made it a couple bucks cheaper than Dvor. OP says it is estimated to ship within 23-34 days. I too have my doubts that it will actually ship, but at that price it was worth a shot. I think the barrels that show some inventory have a better chance of shipping, but unfortunately I didn't need any of those. I'll report back. |

There were 6.5 creed barrels on there yesterday, albeit not accurately described in the title, but correctly described in the mfg ID, and the PredatOBR 6.5cm barrels are basically sold on larue without PST bas blocks, same as in the UU kits...so no major differences afaik. |

I seriously hope these actually ship. If they ship we need to do a PredatAR appreciation thread and send it to the man himself in hopes he gives us a limited run tAR for the trusty ARFCOM hold out LaRuminati.
