How long did you wait?

I ordered a Loaded M1A December 22. Has anyone recently received an M1A that they had ordered? Can you tell me how long you had to wait? Of course I am nervous I will never see mine. Just looking for some peace of mind….Thanks!

Who did you order from? Chances are whoever you ordered from is swamped with business (slowing down their response time). Adding to that you ordered right before the holidays when people had several days off work. I would expect a delay. I ordered a rifle on December 10th and didn't receive it until last week. It will probably show up, it's just taking a little longer.

I have a Loaded M1a, so I can assure you it's worth the wait.

I don’t remember the last gun ban. The M1A can be assembled with a walnut stock and used in the national matches, would it become one of the banned “assault weapons”? I’ve been concentrating on old C&R’s trying to assemble a decent collection. I put off buying the M1A because they were still in production. Now I may fall short of having the ultimate battle rifle collection. Thanks for the advice.
