Good eye, Chuck. Mine says the same thing, I missed that. I just saw the "Order Shipped" subject line. :frust:


Well, it says that shipping "may not occur" for 1-2 weeks, but mine has apparently shipped:

It's still not clear to me how it arrived in Federal Way a full four hours before it departed Salt Lake City, but I'm not a professional in these matters so I probably just don't understand the technical details.

In the 90's, when you shipped something Fed Ex overnight from Redmond to Seattle, it would get there via Memphis, TN.
They may still do that.

Mine says the exact same thing but just off by a few minutes... For this to happen the same way to all 3 of ours makes me wonder if these were actually shipped or not.

Weird

Got mine. Barrel has no stamping on it, hadn't seen that before. The keymod is fake on the handguard without the proper milling on the backside. That made it easier to take the chop saw to the handguard though to shorten it to fit my golf ball launcher. Lol. Great buy.

The threads on my buffer tube were messed up, so I'm going to need a new one. I didn't even think to check the keymod machining. I guess I got what I paid for. :ROFLMAO:

Oh yeah I forgot the threads on the castle nut for my buffer tube had sharp points that were digging into the buffer tube. I swapped just that nut with another setup and both fit fine.

So I definitely want a AR Pistol. How's the verdict for this kit shaping up. It really doesn't take a few parts needing replacement before the value side of this is moot.

Yeah....the threads on the buffer tube i received weren't right on mine either. My castle nut was literally chasing the threads. I put this kit on an Anderson lower and the front take down pin didn't fit right either, i had to sand it down quite a bit to get it to fit. Did anybody else experience that problem as well ?
