TGO Lowers Revisited

[Fourtyfive]

As far as serial numbers and matched uppers go ; as my mom always said " If wishes were horses , begger's would ride ".

Let it go , get what you can and appreciate it.

God bless her , she is 82 and still goes to the store , she sometimes gets Bud Light because she thinks the box is PBR to keep me and my 87 year old dad hydrated.

They live 3 houses up from me and I cut their grass which requires PBR for fluid replenishment. Edited August 24, 2013 by Threeeighty

I'm in. I don't care about what serial number or anything else. I'll be happy to have it with anything that refers to TGO. Thank you to everyone working on making these available to us.

What he says, I'm in for one. :up:

The Lifetime Benefactor membership, along with at least one upper and lower combo, I may have to look for a second job to support my TGO fix.

 

Is there a rough guesstimate as to when this may go down?

I don't see what's so hard to do about a matched upper?  I mean it would seem like all they need to do is pull one off the shelf, do a quick Q/A check for fit/etc, serial both of them, then put the logo on both right?  So the logo on the upper might be reaching but the rest isn't so tough right?  Has anyone asked them about a small logo on the uppers?  Like maybe at the top rear of the optics rail where the charging handle clicks in?

I don't have serial numbers on ANY of my uppers. It's not trivial to do custom engraving on anything as cheap as an upper receiver. Just get one of their billet uppers and be done with it.

Elvis isn't dead. I saw him at the Food City race night in downtown Bristol.

The staff said earlier in the thread that CMT might be putting together some upper options based on this group buy of lowers but nothing has been promised or set up as of yet.  If we do not show interest in it then I'm sure they won't bother.  But if we do then it really could open the door to several things depending on what CMT wants to do.  I'm not saying that anyone is expecting anything on an upper but we should have the ability to show interest without being chastised by the membership here.  Based on what has been said so far in this thread by the staff is that the only things are are for sure out of the question are customized serial numbers and calibers other than .223/5.56.  I don't see anything wrong with showing what our interests are and letting CMT be the one that limits what is possible and not possible.

 

Sorry for the rant but this bothered me.

Sorry you're getting that, but you don't seem to be hearing what the TGO staff is saying. The logistics of a group buy can be a nightmare. Trying to add levels of complexity to that isn't only beating a dead horse (because they already outlined the limits), but it's looking a gift horse in the mouth. 

 

But... don't take my word for it.

[Earl33]

I'm still in..

[Hershmeister]

Cool - CMT is a great company and makes A quality receiver.

This might be my excuse to make an AR SBR.

Count me in

There is cleary excitement but it feels like this thing won't even happen this year at this pace.

sorry just wanted one like 3 months ago. Edited September 9, 2013 by Brutnus

Sorry the genie couldn't grant your wishes, I mean you have been a member for like 8 months.

[vontar]

Any idea when an order will be placed?  Not trying to rush anyone, just want to make certain I don't miss it.

[superduty]

Me too.

[MacGyver]

Stay tuned tomorrow. Y'all are going to like it. Turns out there's a genie named Jeff...
