    There is a possibility we will have to wait a week or two once paying to for the uppers, this is better than the typical 8-12 week order or longer wait time.
    - from OP

    lol. march 30 - May 11 is only 6 weeks. I fully expected this to take the whole 10 weeks that everyone else is waiting. Maybe it'll be here before my birthday in August...

    We'll post the most current up to date information on here.

    No tracking info, so no updates yet. Unfortunately, the market is pretty hectic right now as I'm sure you all are aware causing a scarcity of parts...even little things like forward assists. Spike's is in the process of building a large volume of uppers, but still no tracking updates unfortunately.

    No offense guys, but you are getting a pretty sweet deal on a very nice upper receiver in an election year. We are selling these uppers below most dealer's pricing even. If ANYONE want's a refund, you are more than welcome to request one since it went beyond the estimated timeline. However, as originally stated, these have been running behind since February. Our last batch of uppers lasted mere hours, and I expect our next few pallets of spike's uppers will do the same.

    Sorry guys, Joebob has been nothing but stand up, the issue is Spikes, if anyone needs a refund, I would be glad to help them out. I could use more than I bought.

    I am not looking for a refund and new when ordering it would be a wait before receiving it but I think that a once a week update would be timely.
    thanks for the info

    I am assuming that we will more than likely receive our uppers this week, because of the fact that all the other vendors have received their shipments of uppers. Of course, this is only an assumption, but I would like to think I am on track. (Hopefully)

    Still no tracking updates. Until we have that, its just hearsay and wishful thinking. All AR companies right now are scrambling to try to get things out. Most of our inventory seems to take 3-10 weeks to ship a BCG, upper, lower, trigger, or any other AR15 part. We'll post updates once we get them. We'll be getting a couple of pallets worth of uppers arriving at the same time.

    The biggest problem is there's so many suppliers involved in the process. Different parts manufacturers, material suppliers, coaters, testers, etc. And they are ALL hectic right now. There's really no one to blame, the market is just crazy right now.

    In a couple months when the stuff is even harder to find AND the prices go up you guys will be you waited!

    If anyone has changed their minds regarding the upper, please PM me. I am in the market for an upper and will gladly buy their spot. Thanks.

    UPDATE: I purchased one of GunRelated's uppers. Looking forward to getting it in.

    Hate to ask, but been over 2 weeks since we have seen any update. Just wondering if there was any news?

    Anxiously waiting to shoot the over 2000 rounds I bought over the last couple of months, waiting to be used on these uppers. :draw:
