We are drawing very close to the next release with just over a week before the 15th. Any speculation as to what we will see? Mark, you're welcome to comment

| A BCG would be a good thing. Lower parts to help round out the deal. Barrels are already at a killer price, don't see those going lower. But hey ya never know. Muzzle breaks or comps. More funiture in RO finish. Optics? Sights? Only Mark knows. I will be patiently waiting for the 15th. Oh well fun to speculate. |

i would like to see the remaining parts needed to complete the 5.56/.300 BLK stealth build that started earlier this year.
next year if H doesn't get the WH i would like to see a 7.62 possibly but until this political mess settles down i wouldn't expect to see any more lowers sold that aren't part of a complete rifle. |

Maybe a break for the 3rd quarter so that they can catch up on the first two quarters Along with my credit card.

If you seek to do battle with me this day, you will receive the best that I am capable of giving. It may not be enough, but it will be everything I have to give, and it will be impressive.

I'd like to see more new parts, but I am expecting a repeated round of the Taste of Texas at any time. Something that might pare down the list a bit, based on the earliest descriptions posted by Mark.
I have to admit, at this point I am probably holding off of making some purchases I might otherwise have already made, just in case the parts show up in the next round. I already have an unused $250 SMR mk8 rail sitting in a box that I bought right before the Stealth 2.0 dropped. Maybe I'll use it in a future alternate upper. |

I thought about this not too long ago as well. I could have sworn a 14.5 tar barrel was offered during the 1st ToT sale but after further research, discovered otherwise. Apparently they've never been made. However, the 16" is pretty lightweight. I'm contemplating for my 2.0 as well... ETA: you said OBR barrel....derp |

But I'm sure most folks would take a LT BCG vs an OBR barrel considering most of us have a barrel left over from ToT sale, or added them on with the uppers I think you are correct in assuming most people want BCGs |

But I'm sure most folks would take a LT BCG vs an OBR barrel Maybe a PredatOBR cartridge (heavy barrel with PST) with the add-on option of a BCG or visa-versa (kind of like the lower with add on option from Q2)? I would guess that BCG's are going to be of the same nature as lowers, limited due to recent events. In the history of LT, have chromed BCG's ever been offered independent of a complete factory rifle? |

I would totally jump on a barrel with PST!!
However - I'd be throwing it in my UDE PredatOBR rather than my Stealth 2.0 The UDE is just begging for a 14.5" barrel but its owner just can't handle $700+ for the cartridge... PS - If LaRue would sell the PST block I'd have fent by now on all the necessary pieces during the barrel sale! oh well...here's to hoping! |

There was a mulligan given on the second quarter. If the point was to shorten the list (I know it was mentioned in the TOT), than the mulligan wouldn't have been given. I'm hoping for a different mount and probably a BCG. I like the idea of finishing the build soon preferably with all Larue parts, but would also like another Larue mount for an AR platform. Having a BEAST strapped on a 556 or 6.5 will look funny
