Lead Times
How We Set Lead Times
Our lead times come directly from real workflow data across machining, coating, and gunsmithing. These estimated time will vary and adjust as workloads shift, but the goal is simple: do the job right the first time.
Why Lead Times Shift
Not all jobs are created equal. Some require deeper inspection, teardown, or precision work. Wright Armory will reorder jobs when safety, complexity, or efficiency demands it. Quality takes priority, not shortcuts.
Current Estimated Lead Times
Every job is unique, but we’ll keep the process smooth and take great care of your firearm from start to finish.
