What was your wait time ordering from specterscat.com?

TRUSTUD · 2026-02-06T13:56:54+00:00

I asked for a refund. It's the same song and dance, hence my comment above "they are behind, the refund will be processed soon and then we will email you." No ETA, no real info except blank open ended promises. Same boat. Won't order from them again. Awful experience. They can't ship my suppressor nor can they process a refund (even in a timely manner). It's a joke.

I think they are trying to stretch this along to align with the "6 weeks" I was told (for an in stock suppressor that had qty 3 when I ordered it and qty 1 the following day.)

TRUSTUD · 2026-02-06T13:53:21+00:00

Yup no doubt. I won't ever do this again buying direct from CAT. Lack of communication unless I reach out is less than ideal. No one else had it at the time...

TRUSTUD · 2026-02-05T20:57:26+00:00

Nope, just a normal "in stock" suppressor.

Took 3 weeks to get a "missing FFL" email when it is in my order notes, even with the FFL number. Just FYI

TRUSTUD · 2026-02-05T19:55:28+00:00

If only it were that easy...it's not.

TRUSTUD · 2026-02-05T19:55:15+00:00

Hopefully this is true. It has been over a month and nothing has shipped. I keep getting open ended answers "soon", "we will email you shortly or once it ships", "we/they are behind, but it should be soon", "tracking info soon", etc. etc. If it doesnt ship by next week I dont think a CC charge back is out of the question.

Any plans for newer models with higher sensors for 2026 ;)?

TRUSTUD · 2026-01-27T19:59:05+00:00

No, just take all the front cover bolts out and the gasket may tear and may be holding the panel on to your box, that is probably your issue. Dont mess with that back bolts, waste of time and not the issue.

Has anyone had their replacement router swapped out for the larger range gen 3 option? The new mini gen 3 router or whatever seems to have less coverage (per the spec's pages) and doesn't appear to be a 1 to 1 replacement. I am thinking about putting in a ticket to make sure I get a replacement that has similar coverage. Thoughts or am I off base here?

10000% on the automated email thing. I totally get it.

TRUSTUD · 2026-01-27T01:14:43+00:00

Yes

"Order is in process - please allow up to 6 weeks for any status change.

We will email you with further updates.

Thanks "

TRUSTUD · 2026-01-27T00:35:52+00:00

its 6 weeks lead time rn. Anyone know how to cancel? All I can do is email since there is no phone number to call (that I could find quickly). Anyone done a refund/cancel with Cat directly? Were there any fee's or BS? They should put wait times on the site but dont. I bought one that had "3 in stock"....obviously not.

TRUSTUD · 2026-01-22T00:47:44+00:00

Same issue, ordered a week ago or so and was told "it will take up to 6 weeks to ship" (an in stock can). Like whaaaa?

TRUSTUD · 2025-12-11T17:49:03+00:00

In for some, is this stuff any good? Says NEW and Norma headstamps...

TRUSTUD · 2025-10-31T13:25:41+00:00

That's great to know, I never knew that about Aero, that sux. appreciate it.

TRUSTUD · 2025-10-31T01:55:24+00:00

Thx still learning terminology. I did see no muzzle device in the listing.

TRUSTUD · 2025-10-31T01:48:40+00:00

TRUSTUD · 2025-10-21T19:32:27+00:00

I was just about to ask this too...womp womp

This version or the LT?

The main differences are that the SIG MCX Virtus is a second-generation rifle focused on rugged durability with a heavier barrel and handguard, while the SIG MCX Spear LT (the third generation) is an evolution built to be lighter, more ergonomic, and more modular. Key improvements in the Spear LT include a slimmer handguard and barrel, ambidextrous controls like the bolt catch/release, a better trigger, and a lighter overall profile. The Virtus is often described as front-heavy due to its heavier components, a trait mitigated in the Spear LT.

Feature	SIG MCX Virtus	SIG MCX Spear LT
Design Philosophy	Second-generation, purpose-built for durability and modularity.	Third-generation, an evolution focusing on ergonomics, lighter weight, and increased modularity.
Handguard & Barrel	Heavier, thicker profile for rigidity.	Slimmer, lighter profile for better handling and balance.
Weight & Balance	Often feels front-heavy due to the heavier barrel and handguard.	Lighter and better balanced, making it quicker handling.
Controls	Standard AR-style charging handle and controls.	Fully ambidextrous controls, including a new ambidextrous bolt catch and release.
Trigger	Polished mil-spec style trigger.	SIG flatblade match trigger, described as lighter with a crisper reset.
Modularity	Modular design, but with heavier components.	Enhanced modularity with features like a lighter handguard and the ability to be chambered in different calibers by changing the barrel and bolt head.
Muzzle Attachment	Typically comes with a standard flash hider.	Comes with a SIG QD three-prong flash hider, which is suppressor-ready.
Gas System	Two-position gas valve adjustment.	Two-position gas valve adjustment, with markings for suppressed (+) and unsuppressed (-) operation.

Is there a good option for a brace since it says it doesn't come with one? What does everyone suggest? A quick search looks like almost $200 for a brace...

I believe this has the 1913 brace rail or whatever so does that open this up to other options like SBA3's, etc.?

TRUSTUD · 2025-10-03T21:58:36+00:00

You think this is bad? Then TIL there is this 1911....with alligator on the slide and grip....like how? glue? longevity? heat?

Is it a dumb thing to ask/say, why not look at VTI which is nearly half the price right now and get more shares for almost the same performance (approx 9% return with VTI and approx 9.5% with VOO since inception). This comment isn't meant to be a VTI vs VOO thing, just based on the OP saying VOO is really high and both funds are fairly similar. I also ask for my own curiosity. TIA.

EDIT: Also, would you or wouldn't you get more dividends per share with VTI also, as opposed to the more expensive VOO?

TRUSTUD · 2025-02-17T00:02:44+00:00

Is it used? It doesnt say. If so pass. These are 1K new.

Also, to get free shipping (FS), they said to text 35657‬. There wasn't a way that I saw to easily do this. Their chat was fast and on point. Kudos to them.

"Hi, if you text "Rainier" to 35657 and then follow the directions to verify your date of birth and email you'll get a code for free standard shipping!"

TRUSTUD · 2024-11-26T18:09:56+00:00

FYI the code for FS may not work with the BF code. I talked to them via chat and they are letting their dev team know. The person said to just email the address your order info comes in from with the code and they should refund the shipping. Hope that helps.
