Anyone experience problems ordering AR parts?

[wheelgun]

I tried to order a new AR upper from one of the tier-1 manufacturers today. This was an UPPER not a lower. When I tried to check out a message popped up "We don't ship to Massachusetts". As a test I tried to order a rail.... same message.

This is really bad when supposedly big gun rights supporters cave on even supplying parts. I wrote them an email for what it's worth.

 

[CrackPot]

Out the manufacturer. You will find out they are already well known to not ship to MA is my bet.

 

[Odyssey Arms]

It's BCM isn't it? PM me if you need help inbounding parts.

 

[wheelgun]

No it's not BCM. But it's a manufacturer of top quality parts, with top notch customer service and a large presence on major sites like AR15.com. I won't mention their name until I give them a chance to respond to the email I sent them. I explained the details of the ban here, maybe (I doubt it) they'll realize their mistake and change their policy.

Oooo....I like this game. Is it Stag Arms?

That would be pretty funny considering CT and all.

BCM wouldn't ship me anything so I went with Geissele. Loved the rail so much I bought a trigger too.

Implying that a gun manufacturer did absolutely no research and just decided to stop selling to an entire state without understanding the law?

I'm betting it's Palmetto. Or if they were serious about the top quality parts Noveske/Daniel Defense (though I haven't heard of them not shipping parts

 

[TomMontana]

I'm betting it's Palmetto.

Unlikely... unless "quality" and "top notch" are used loosely here. Probably not Stag either as they sell $50 upper receivers.

tier-1... it's a manufacturer of top quality parts, with top notch customer service

you should better use your time to find someone to ship here than to try and change the policies of those who won't. i do wish you success with trying.

Palmetto isn't Tier-1 of anything, unless the product we're talking is elephant turds or something.

Its not that they wont ship to MA, they just won't ship to you..

Nope. Which is why I added the "if serious about top quality parts"

It's worth nothing and will be deleted before it's even finished being read.

Out them already. Though for what it's worth, I just inbounded a shit ton of parts for my new .458 SOCOM bolt action upper and had absolutely no problems with anywhere I ordered from.

Just waiting on my quarterly bonus to come in so I can order the BCG and be done.

 

[Daddy Mac]

I learned my lesson a long time ago. Massachusetts sucks. I pick up parts in person, out of state. One very large, well known mail order wouldn't even send me a Hogue grip for my AR. A fricken rubber grip!

 

[Asaltweapon]

I have had no problems getting any parts.

 

[VTHunter]

These guys?

 

[wheelgun]

BCM - nope
Stag - nope
Palmetto - nope
Aero - nope

You have 16 questions left

tier-1 manufacturers

Actual manufacturer or assembler/reseller? 20 "tier 1" manufacturers sounds like a lot.

 

[Mr. Brownstone]

BCM - nope
Stag - nope
Palmetto - nope

I don’t like this game. It’s like trying to find out what my girlfriend wants to eat for dinner.

You doing a build thread? Would love to see some pics and details on the build!

Manufacturer. Not implying there are 20 of them, just that you've used up four questions.
You've never played 20 questions?

This may have nothing to do w state of residence. i wouldnt sell you an upper either.

Actually, I've never played 20 questions but I think asking if it was a manufacturer or reseller is a pretty good question. It sets the guidelines for the rest.

Sounds like another butthurt Ma. resident thread.

From left to right - the progression of my feelings about this guessing game thread.

It sucks for MA, but sadly, there will come a day when the same liberal-gun-hating laws will start to be heavily pushed and may actually gain ground in NH.
Just take a look at recent movements in VT & ME (we are getting surrounded and it is seeping-in everywhere.....).
