Goatboy,
Any chance you could set up a pre-order now for us mere mortals that want in on this? Or should we just stay tuned and hope we get in on time when they become available? |
|
We lifers didn't buy them all up. We saved some for you guys, not many, but some. Plus the second batch has been ordered.
Paper work is in place, all the i's have been dotted, all "T' have crossed, perproduction samples approved, so the wait will be quick as compaired to the lifers. We waited 2 yeasr for these to come to life, the other members won't wait hardly as long. My #48 is in hand. Sure is nice. My first stripped lower. |
|
Nice....but as another poster mentioned, theres no "fffffuuuuuuuuu" position on the selector switch!
When these are produced, mark me down for two. |
|
Goat,
Would we be able to pick a serial # if available. 187 would be a nice number. |
|
Lowers will be available to you guys starting this weekend via the AR15.com Store.
Sorry to say, but we will not be taking serial number requests. Lowers will be shipped on a first come, first served basis. |

Don't post "the" link. So when would these be available for the common folk to buy? I know us "serfs" are getting restless. I don't want to give any inaccurate or incorrect info, really only certain Staff/Administrators can provide authoritative details. What follows is only my understanding of the matter... The first batch took a long time to get in and were offered first to Lifetime members and Staff. Another batch has already been ordered and Mods will get a turn. There are plans to make these available to everyone but the timeline is unknown. I'd be willing to bet that the "serfs" will wait much less time than the lifetime members did. Some of the LT members have been waiting for literally years. So being a "serf" isn't really so bad Long time indeed. The original post that I responded to with interest was Posted: 4/23/2008 6:53:25 AM EST I didn't even notice the thread until page 7 and Posted: 5/31/2009 6:53:46 PM EST I swear I thought I indicated interest earlier than last year, but apparently not. When I saw the date of the original posts, I figured it wasn't happening. I am happy that it has. I have thought about getting the right side engraved with the lifetime 4 stars logo to match. That side is kind of plain already, it almost needs something. Now I have my waiting period and should be picking it up next week. Got to get my LPK ordered soon. |

Once you get most if it off use your favorite oil to clean it the rest of the way. |

Engraved right side was exacty what I thought it needed too. The Lifetime 4 stars is a good idea. . I came into this late in the game but finding out about these lowers help push me into going Life . Where would/are you take/sending your lower for engraving? |

Quoted: I have thought about getting the right side engraved with the lifetime 4 stars logo to match. That side is kind of plain already, it almost needs something. That is a dang good idea right there. Once I get my act together to SBR it I'll probably have all the engraving done in one shot. |

Once you get most if it off use your favorite oil to clean it the rest of the way. I've found after getting the crayon in mostly "right" it also helps to hit it lightly with a heat gun. Releases any trapped air and helps the wax all even out and fill in any tiny gaps. Do this on a flat, level surface |

Can't wait to read the first thread... "FUUUUUUUUUUU.. I broke the ear on my new ARFCOM lower"
I'm jealous |

AR15.com lowers are NOW AVAILABLE FOR ORDER: LINK. First batch is sold out, awaiting ETA on 2nd batch for pre-orders.
Once the initial batch is sold out, we will begin taking back-orders for the next batch. |

surprised the words "internet commando" aren't found on the lower...
|
|
I am just throwing around the idea, no concrete plans on engraving yet, so i don't know where i would send it for engraving. It is bare, though.

Was I the only one to find the URL for the lower before it was actually in the store? The way people around here mess with Photobucket accounts I figured someone else would have found it as well. |

Was I the only one to find the URL for the lower before it was actually in the store? We were told that if the link was shared with regular members early that the member who placed an early order would have it cancelled and a refund issued. I guess you just got lucky. My superintendent at work (he's a member here) wanted one, and I had to wait until this morning to log into his account and order one for him (he had to work today.) |

I first became aware of it in May 2008 and have been waiting since then. It's definitely been a long wait - but totally worth it! |

Maybe there was a previous thread before the one with the number reservations. I could swear it was before the 4/23/2008 thread. I really thought that I posted interest before 09 because I really thought that it wasn't going to happen after the long wait. I can't wait to pick mine up next week. I'm going two tone FDE. |
