Does anyone know when this rifle comes out? I know they keep saying the release date is soon, but Ive also read some already have one? I have cash on hand if anyone can help me out. Thanks everyone.

Pretty sure you can buy it through at least one vendor on here now.
 
Re: Barrett MRAD release date?

That is correct. Go to the commercial vendor forum, there's at least one vendor advertising MRAD's in stock.
 
Re: Barrett MRAD release date?

If you are looking at an MRAD, make sure you take a look at the SRS by Desert Tactical Arms.

Who knows when Barrett will actually have their MRAD caliber conversions. Plus the SRS will save you a few lbs and you will have a proven system.
 
Re: Barrett MRAD release date?

Wtf are you going on about?
 
Re: Barrett MRAD release date?

They are out there, if you can't find one in stock, get on a list. Barret is trying to get caught up to the demand.

As stated, lyn Schriver had some recently.

"Availability" for order does not necessarily mean "availability" to actually get one in your hands.
 
Re: Barrett MRAD release date?

Bet you I could probably get one inside a week or two....lol.
 
Re: Barrett MRAD release date?

Just called barrett they told me end of November early December. Whaaa?! Somebody explain.. She said they haven't released them to civilian market bullshit
 
Re: Barrett MRAD release date?

Get a 98B. Fuck all the drama with the "latest and greatest"
The price premium isn't worth it. Bullshit about demand exceeding supply is all the rage here on the Hide.

Or the SRS is a great alternative.

I'm sure Barrets are great rifles. I love my SRS!

Err, the MRAD may be hard to get, but it's not impossible. I've handled one already, and could get another one ordered immediately if desired.

Everyone's reaction upon first seeing it tends to be "That's very *brown*..."

and expensive

Re: Barrett MRAD release date?

MRADs are currently for sale. They have been extremely popular (extremely) on the front end and backorders are still being cleared out. Those who ordered early will get rifles first, as would be expected. Standing orders being filled first and "unobtanium" are two different things.

Caliber conversions are to be released officially at SHOT, though I hope to have them a little sooner. I'm shooting them some this week.

Put your order in ASAP. The MRAD is worth the wait, whatever that may be at the moment.
 
Re: Barrett MRAD release date?

New member here. I too am looking for one with cash in hand. Any ideas?
 
Re: Barrett MRAD release date?

It's definitely an awesome looking rifle. Does anyone have pictures or video of someone actuating the magazine release while behind the rifle? It seems kind of awkward.
