@BulbasaurNoLikeCardio: they blaimed it on their IT team for not updating it as out of stock when I paid but like buying something in stock in September then being told I won't get it until mid January is pretty wild. I do not hunt anymore but their mistake would of caused me to miss the entire season. If it wasn't so hard to get left handed ARs I would of gone elsewhere
