Rainier Arms Back Up Iron Sights Group Buy

[titanse05]

This GB isn't going to happen so go out and get them. Black is back in stock finally so get them while they last.



OK guys. UWone77 asked me to start a thread to gauge interest in a potential WEVO group buy for sets of Rainier Arms Premium BUIS. If you don't know what I'm talking about, get out from under that rock and check them out. [:)] Rainier Arms BUIS (https://www.rainierarms.com/rainier-arms-back-up-iron-sights-8568)

The regular price is $249.95 on these with APEX pricing at $228.71. I'm not sure what to expect for a WEVO GB price but they are a quality set that we should still expect to pay for. Currently the black versions are out of stock but I would imagine that RA has more on order. A reasonable target for us to hit would be 10 sets I would think.

Anyway, please add your name to the list if you are truly interested in a set for the best price that will be available to us. UWone77 is going to be at RA on Friday and will see if we can make this GB happen and for how many sets.

In for one set of black sights.

[fledge]

In for one black set if they are under $200.

Knowing how much they cost, this is likely not going to happen.

That's my guarantee to buy in. But I can still be tempted if it's higher.

Haha!!

I watched the promo video on this set last night. I couldn't call them "back up" sights at that cost and would be forced to use them properly!

[EO3]

I would certainly be interested in a group buy for these, probably an FDE set. No guarantees here, but I'm definitely interested. Depends how this tax return goes [BD]

[Farva]

I'd be interested in a set of black.

[Sak007]

How low do these sit compared to the lowpro Bobro's?

Sent from my SGP561 using TapatalkNothing is thinner than the Bobros. However, the RA BUIS are very lo profile as well (only 9 mm / 0.35”). Here is a picture of the rear sight folded down.

[Sak007]

I'm interested also , are they tan or fde ?

[fairlanericky]

I'd be in for a black set.

[UWone77]

Either Or.

[Sak007]

I'm in for a set of fde .

[titanse05]

So we have 8 sets so far....

[Joelski]

Anybody know the time frame on these?

[titanse05]

Still open for interest....

UWone77 will be making the trip this Friday.


Anybody know the time frame on these?Will need to wait till they get more black in stock for starters.

[Joelski]

I guess that's what I was asking.

[fledge]

I may sell my bobros for these.... UW, don't let us down.

[ducrider14]

possible interest, depends on price, gotta get some car work done soon

[UWone77]

They are going to work on this, so stay tuned.

[titanse05]

If anyone else wants in on this let me know.

[UWone77]

So at this point this group buy is going to take a back seat. The sights are on order, but the outfit that's producing them has an extended back order. RA didn't want to get anyone's hopes up before they get more back into stock. Rest assured, when they do we'll revisit this as they will be lower than APEX pricing... I'll keep you guys up to date.

[fledge]

Thanks, UW, for keeping us in the loop.

[titanse05]

:(

My SBRs have a sad face. Do they have a guesstimate when they might roll in?

[UWone77]

Still no ETA, but they are going to have a minor revision on the sights for this run. Not sure what the revision is though. I'll keep you guys posted.

Tritium inserts ?[BD]

[titanse05]

I'm so ready for this to happen.

[fledge]

Me too. I'm officially committed. Sold my BOBROs.

[Vesticles]

Any word yet? I'm thinking of putting my name in on a set of black ones.

[Aragorn]

Also curious as I'd be down for a set of black.

[Joelski]

They appear to be in stock at RA. Is this thing moving or on-hold indefinitely?

I'm going to see what they can do, but I'm on vacation till the end of the week. Let me see what I can get done via email.

[Joelski]

Damn you people and your vacations!

[:D]

Thanks man!

[titanse05]

Black version still showing out of stock for me..... I wish they weren't though.

[UWone77]

Joel are these in stock on your computer?

[SINNER]

Not mine.

[Sak007]

Tan ones are in stock and I'm picking up an order at Rainier on the 4th so ...................[:D]

[Joelski]

Joel are these in stock on your computer?

Hmmmm may have glanced, pre-coffee. My bad.

[adrew55]

I am in for 1 set as well, seems like we have at least 10 interested parties now. Although I do see that black is still listed out of stock. I had a chance to examine these at their store, and came away very impressed.

Oh I need a few sets myself, but they're having trouble getting them made. Not sure what the ETA is at this point. I always need more BUIS, so I'll keep tabs on this from time to time.

[Sak007]

Still waiting on my fde set :-?

I've considered grabbing one since the black ones are unavailable. When did you order it?

[Sak007]

I never ordered it I was waiting on the group buy, but most wanted black #blackbuismatter

[fledge]

I want black too. Apparently so did everyone else. I wish they would have kept making the current version until next generation was available.

[fledge]

Black are in stock!

[Aragorn]

Just saw this! So.... Group buy? Or pounce now...?

[fledge]

I pounced now and will group buy when available. 2 is 1 right?

[UWone77]

You guys need to pounce. That is all.

[titanse05]

I ordered my two sets.
