Last week, my BCG got knocked off the bench by someone else while I was cleaning my barrel at the range, bending the carrier key. They overnighted me an entirely new bolt and carrier and sent a return label for the damaged one. I have never had to ask for anything special and I haven't been charged for any of this - it is just how LaRue does business.

I get really tired of reading forum lurkers run them down because they chose to prioritize military and law enforcement orders when production was insufficient to meet demand.
No surprise there. I emailed at 1500 and received a brand new upper at 0900 the next day...before master Rick schooled me in prone vs bench and that there was nothing wrong to begin with. Im too embarassed to complain or ask them anything now. They've given me the RISR, POD, and Mark Fingar pulled a retaining pin from a demo PredatOBR to replace my worn one. Hard not to be a walking advertisement for Larue. I've used the dillo dustto great effect on turkey, burger, fries, baked potato, eggs, ramen, and the list grows

I'm glad to know the Cumberland SRT and the Bureau HRT use the formidable Larue OBR
