Has anyone had contact with CMMG lately. I'm wondering what their delivery back log is like these days. ANYONE???

Until that day,

Their site wouldn't even let me buy anything last night.
Weird.

CMMG says on their site that they won't answer questions about lead time. Oh well, looks like all the more reason to wait for a BCM.

Depends on what you're ordering. I ordered two 16" midlengths four weeks ago and haven't heard anything.

That same day I ordered two lowers with internals (no stock) and had them in my hands 11 days later. Go figure.

Hmmm.... just hit their site and found this: "Pending orders and back orders will be charged when the order is put into production. Once you have been charged for your order you can expect it to ship in four to five weeks."

That's new - they used to charge your card only when it shipped. Can't say I like the new policy.

Thanks guy's. I read that about the pending orders but was wondering how long it might be before they charge my card and then the 5-6 week wait.

With this whole panic buying thing it has put us all in the wait mode.

Until that day,

Update: I received an e-mail a few days ago that my order has gone into production, and I should have them in a month or so.

adax tactical has some stripped cmmg barrels in stock.

On a side note I ordered a 9mm bcg from cmmg 2 weeks ago and got it yesterday..not bad.

I've been waiting for that kind of e-mail from them on a 14.5" middy since 12/17/08. Sigh.

Well, I ordered in mid November, so if your timeframe is the same as mine, you have another month.

I don't know if it made any difference, but I did send them a "Not bugging you and asking for a ship date, just making sure you still had my order" e-mail two days before I got my notification. Just sayin'.

The 12/17 e-mail was a response to a "don't mean to bug you" e-mail. Actual order was mid-November like yours. Perhaps I should give it another try.

Anything you get from CMMG lately warrants close inspection. I've seen two guns come from them since the first of this year, and both were improperly assembled and missing parts.

Having said that, there's nothing wrong with their parts...only with whoever they've got checking what goes out the door.

I ordered my upper the week after the election. It took about 7 weeks.

I ordered a 16" lightweight mid-length upper Nov 7 and still haven't gotten any word.

When I placed the order, I think the site said something like orders were going out 4-6 weeks after being placed. A week or two after my order that number jumped and then not too long after that they weren't putting an estimate on the site at all.

I inquired in late December and was told the following


At this time, I am unable to give you a shipment date.
But I will send you an email when your credit card is ran
and your item is going into production. Thanks for your
patience

Hm, maybe I should try that :(

I was worried about that given their volumes... QC can take a hit when volumes increase like this :(
What parts were missing and/or improperly assembled?

Forward assist assembly missing roll pin. "Complete Barrel Assembly" missing gas tube, roll pin, taper pins not fully installed (not more than 1/4 installed), flash hider pinned but not welded.

One that came to a friend was supposed to have a DD rail on it, and they sent it with a MI rail instead. Big pain in the ass to change it out.

There's nothing wrong with their PARTS, but I'll never buy from them again.

Ugh, I wonder if I should just cancel the order.

Where can a guy find a lightweight mid-length upper these days?

Edited... actually I'd really settle for any quality mid-length upper at this point. The lightweight profile isn't a necessity.

Try GDS Enterprises, out of Texas. They're good folks, and had some good barrels last time I called them.
