Received an email notification that Rainier Arms has LMT Defender 2000 lowers in stock.  The pricing appears to be the same as they were last fall (pre-election and craziness).

Argh trying to buy but page won't fully load!

Damn.  They are probably getting slammed. 

Maybe try giving them a call.  I've bought from them a few times in the past and they've always been great.   

Page works fine for me.  I did noticed that two options have already sold out that were available when I first got the email.  So they seem to be going quick. 

What the heck does returning soon mean ?

Sold out

They sold out in about 20 minutes.  Hope someone was able to get one.  I am set with AR lowers for now, but I seriously thought about just getting another anyways.  I have a complete lower and two stripped lowers that I need to get finished.

I'm pretty set with lowers too, but I have an LMT upper that would mate beautifully with that lower 

And thanks for the heads up Drck    Keep 'em coming.

wanna sell that upper?

I managed to get a lower in my cart and went thru the buying process. Don't know if I'm going to get it though

Just called and they answered the phone on the 2nd ring.. Order went through. They said that if you can add it to your cart, it's in stock. The guy I spoke to was cool and even let me add a BCM charging handle to my order to be shipped at the same time

Nice!  Glad to hear someone here was able to snag one.

I sign up for notifications on a bunch of different vendor's sites.  I'm also a mod/staff on another AR forum that also gives heads up on things being back in stock.   I'll try to share more leads if/when I see them.

I have notifications set up on a lot of sites but the stuff is usually sold out before I can get to it.

Thanks for the notice drck

No worries.  Hope that LMT lower works out well for you.  I have a complete LMT MRP and it's an excellent gun.
