I'm getting close to that now too.

They had a Sons of Liberty Gun Works barrel for sale on DVOR. I bought one... now I hear THEY'RE FUCKING BACK ORDERED UNTIL APRIL!

EDIT:
Cancelled the order. Found a comparable barrel from Ballistic Advantage that was in stock right now.

As long as you check availability and it lists products in stock it will ship quickly. If it says expected to ship in x amount of time it's not actually in stock and who knows when it actually will.

In my defense I made the assumption that if it was on DVOR it meant they had it. They shipped my trigger... but I'm still waiting on the extended magazine release buttons I ordered... may cancel those and order direct from OdinWorks if they have them.

EDIT:
Cancelled the extended mag button order and grabbed them direct from OdinWorks.

That Ballistic Advantage barrel with Honey installed on Chrome also cost less than the Sons of Liberty one that I was waiting on from DVOR.

Honey is an app you can add to like Google Chrome that automatically searches for discount codes. That Ballistic Advantage barrel, buying direct from them, WITH SHIPPING COSTS, was less than what the SoLGW barrel from DVOR would have been because of Honey.

Ah shit I just ordered a Troy Alpha handguard that said "Ships in 5-7 days". When I contacted Troy Industries they were out of stock and refered me to Optics Planet. It was on sale too.

With that short of a timeline it's possible it will ship in a week or 2. They have a lot of distributors they work with.
 
Vltor spring and Nox ordered.

Only a mag catch, Hodge gas block (not out yet) and bcg (sionics or hodge and not available yet) left to get
 
It's a new inconel pinnable gas block. Hodge logo etc. It's super nice looking.

The SLR 7 titanium pinnable is my back up option.

Handguards are just mocked up. I took the picture of the Radian prior to installing the gas block. Everything is installed just need to torque everything down. I don't really like my torque wrench so I'm going to borrow one and probably get everything buttoned up later this week.

Still waiting on my Eotech for the Radian.
