For me, I have just heard too many stories of people’s LTAC orders not shipping for months despite showing in stock.
$124 per part is crazy, but I would have paid if confident it would ship within a week.

Parts shipping from Lockhart has usually been same day for me.Originally Posted by K1LLswitch
I get that the rifles take a long time but the parts are tossed in the mail fast.
Just checked - I've made three parts orders from them. All have been same day or next shipped.
And they’re gone. Sold out pretty fast. 26-30 rifles in 24hrs.
Good to know!
IMHO, anyone complaining about reliability with a current-production Raven is most likely a newb who doesn't understand the Internal Piston operating system, nor the concept and purpose of an adjustable gas flow. 90%+ of the reliability "problems" that I have seen reported were the result of an improperly balanced operating system. Follow directions, sort out the Gas adjustment and suddenly those reliability "issues" disappear. Go figure....
As for Lockhart's parts pricing, I defy anyone complaining to do better in today's economic climate where everything costs exponentially more with each passing day. Machinists have families that have to eat also. Their labour doesn't come cheap, nor do the machines that they operate. 3D-printed aftermarket parts are all well and good, but they cannot match the look and precision fit of Lockhart's machined and anodized Left Side Cocking-Slot Cover and Casing Deflector. Both are machining excellence. The Casing Deflector also houses one end of the Dust Cover Assembly if you are inclined to install one of those, so there's that aspect to consider also.

Does you brass ever hit the offset red dot Bartok5? Thanks.
How do you like the Law Tactical folder? Does it work well with the Raven?IMHO, anyone complaining about reliability with a current-production Raven is most likely a newb who doesn't understand the Internal Piston operating system, nor the concept and purpose of an adjustable gas flow. 90%+ of the reliability "problems" that I have seen reported were the result of an improperly balanced operating system.

Bartok5, your rifle and mine are fraternal twins, right down to the micro dot on a 45 offset.
I've ordered from them a couple of times and I was surprised at how quickly Lockhart shipped.
Remember remember early December
Coalition, treason and plot.
I see no reason why coalition, treason
Should ever be forgot...
Has anyone received theirs from this shipment yet? Curious what buttstock is in it. I believe the one pictured was a magpul, just curious what is actually installed.
