| I ordered a mid length gas pencil barrel A2 upper about 2 weeks ago. I figured it was going to take two or three months to get it since the supply chain is hosed. I called to ask for a ETA yesterday and the lady that answered the phone said they are 8 months out on orders. I think RRA should have this on their homepage instead of finding out about it after you place a order. |

We are that far out on SOME orders, but certainly not ALL orders. As you mentioned, the supply chain is "hosed" . We are building and shipping whatever rifles and upper halves all day, everyday...which ever models we can, in date order. There is no single answera s to when something is going to ship as we simply don't know an exact date days, weeks, or even months in advance. Thanks. Steve/RRA |

If the shop can't build it, typically because we don't have the barrel or some other significant component for it, they aren't going to start it. Sometimes we have the parts, but they are allocated to people with older orders. Probably not in this case, but it does happen, as we to fill in date order. Steve/RRA |

Some orders are taking that long, but far more are in the two to three month range. Thanks. Steve/RRA |

Regardless when you get it, I'm confident you'll be happy. Of all the ARs I own, my RRA is my favorite and my go-to for bumps in the night. |

If you (or your dealer in the case of product ordered through a dealer ,as you cannot cancel his/her order) cancel before the order has hit the production floor we do not charge the restocking fee. Please contact me for any necessary clarification on that. Thanks. Steve/RRA |

You’re right it’s not a restocking fee because there is nothing to restock. It’s a cancellation fee- my bad. Straight from RRA’s order confirmation ~ “NOTE: Once submitted, all orders are final, cancellations will result in a 20% cancellation fee.” |
