Do any of you know what the wait time is on a manners t2a or t4a I am wanting to order one and am trying to figure out when I need to order. I have found old threads that said anywhere from 4-20 weeks?

Re: Manners build time
I ordered on last week and they said 12-16 weeks, I have another one going on 10 weeks, but well worth the wait.

Dam! I wonder why it takes so long? Sounds like they need to hire some more help and expand. I did read that they started a second shift. I am going to order one myself. i guess i better get it done. Lee

Its the old quality vs quantity concept. In a lot of business situations, when small, highly technical companies expand, the cohesion that made them great is lost, and so goes the quality.
Therefore, its sometimes wise to have long lead times and still guarantee the highest of quality.

Re: Manners build time
no matter how long it takes to get your stock from Manners, it is well worth the wait, I have three T4 now and will soon order a T5.

Re: Manners build time
Just order a suppressor at the same time. That will make the wait seem shorter for the manners.
Since Manners won't charge you until the stock is ready, you can replenish the funds you robbed from Peter for the suppressor. There! Problem solved.

Re: Manners build time
Yes, please explain chooter?
I've got one on order as well, 5 months and not getting exactly what you ordered would be tough to take!

Re: Manners build time
Mine has been over 4 months. Waiting for the LA mini-chassis. Waiting on components is a forgone reality when it comes to custom builds.

Re: Manners build time
I just received my Manners t4a stock on Friday. I placed the order on August 26th 2011. A total of approximately 7 months. However, there was a problem with the inlet machine for the savage so I had to send it back when i first got it at the very end of February. So if it wasn't for that mistake it would be about 6 months. But I was quoted 16 weeks. A bit longer than I had expected but the stock is just amazing. I will definitely buy more when I have more money and rifles.
Oh and I do believe Manners went through a move to expand their company, and they also discontinued custom paint jobs I think to further improve their lead times.

Adj. Butt Spacer System
Flush Cup Right Side-2ea
Flush Cup Left Side-2ea
Sling Stud BTM Front

Should be awesome.
