| I found out today that mine should be done in 3 weeks or so... give or take a few weeks is ok with me, as long as it's done right. I haven't been waiting too long though, since may 31st, but I was told 6-8 weeks. Regardless, like I stated, I don't mind if it takes them another 5 weeks as long as I get a reliable product that I am satisfied with (which I don't doubt at all). Gives me time to put together a nice cleaning kit, and hopefully a couple thousand rounds of ammunition for the first day of shooting! ok ok.. maybe not all 2k on the first day.. I could spread it out.. like 1900 the first day and 100 the 2nd. |

I'm expecting my Elite CAR A4 (chrome lined) any day now. My dealer got in a couple a week or so ago and mine was ordered the same day. The others were without the chrome lined barrel. I keep looking for that email from him, but it isn't there yet. I've waited this long, what's another week or two or three. Mike :) |

The anticipation is killing me as well. I'm two weeks over my minimum estimated delivery date, but was told that the factory is test firing Varmints this week and they should go out next week. Scope is in, scope rings have been lapped and lots of fresh ammo loaded up. 55g's to get the scope on target and lots of 69's in stepped loads so on my first day at the range will be most productive. If this comes next week, I might have to cancel my twins birthday party so Dad can get some range time...that'll move would come up in a future therapy session I'm sure.

Wojo...don't cancel their party....have a party at the range! "Hey kids...wanna see Daddy shoot his new rifle?", and of course, "I bet this will break that pinata" and..."POP goes the weasel". Breathe deeply, wait patiently, and when you do get it, be safe and have fun. Steve/RRA |
| All you guys wanting your carbines should just relax. RRA has sent 'em all to me for a second round of test firing by a selected end user. I'll get 'em in the mail to you in, oh, a month or so. Maybe. Depends on whether I still have ammo around. O.K., I'm lying. Or wishing that was true. I'm waiting just like you are. |

I stopped by RRA the other day to pick up 5 30rnd magazines, 2 tshirts, a sling and a LULA Magloader.... I have received my first ammo shipment of 1k of .223 Federal AE FMJ, 3 bottles of CLP, a .223 cleaning kit from Kleenbore, and a .223 Boresnake. Just waiting on the one piece of equipment I am lacking... the beautiful gun from RRA. |

And you didn't ask for me? Introduce yourself? Try to beg any freeebies? Man, I'm hurt! Production is moving along. We're getting close to being able to cut the anticipated lead times a little bit on new orders, but filling the older orders is still the priority right now. Steve/RRA |

It was my lunch, didn't have much time. Thought about it for a few seconds, then recognized a young lady that works there. She was in my Statistics class last semester.. not sure of her name, but I thought she was married to someone there. I want to say the Owner's son, but not sure if that's correct. Anyhow, next time I stop in I will definitely look ya up (probably as soon as you guys release the LAR-8, which I am interested in purchasing). |
