Yeah, if I knew I was going to wait 9 months I would not have ordered it. I had forgotten about it until Brownells emailed me that it was back in stock.

I just called VLTOR just yesterday to complain that I've been waiting to see these come in stock for the last 3 months or longer. They basically told me to make a backorder and wait in line because every new batch they make goes to filling backorders first, and that the eta if ordering directly from them is a 3 month (longer) wait. I have a couple of the BCM versions on BCM lowers, and I've used VLTOR on a couple of other builds, but I won't be waiting any longer for the VLTOR. Frankly if a company can't keep their product in stock and keep their backorders to a minimum, I'd rather buy from somebody else that can and does. You'd think they would have figured it out by now, its not like this is a new issue. Good for them for making such a great item, but that's no good if customers can't ever get their hands on one. Here's to you BCM, you'll be hearing from me very soon.

To add to info: if you are planning to use a magpul PRS gen 3 or UBR gen 2 stock, the tube included with stock is A5 length.
