Go over to Calguns and search for the multiple ways the left coasters have figured out how to pin an adjustable stock in place. Using a roll pin and drilling a blind hole thru the stock and push in the pin. A blind hole is one that doesn't go completely thru the part, it stops short. The thinking is that makes it harder to remove the pin and maybe the DOJ won't arrest you and confiscate the gun! LOL If the search at Calguns won''t work, search something like 'pinning adjustable stock' on a search engine, not google, with Calguns as the site. The rifle buffer you listed needs an A2 stock to complete it. Your carbine one won't work. Numrich Arms had a bunch of A2 stocks when I looked a couple of days ago.

I was looking at another forum's industry section, and the PSA rep was asked if a DPMS style lower would work with a PSA GEN 2 upper. PSA replied there are 3 styles of DPMS uppers, that only the latest one has the correct height for the buffer tube and rail. This was a 8 month old response. That's the first time I've seen somebody from PSA actually state if there is something else that will work with their uppers. Of course the problem is how to identify the last style, I've been looking and nobody is posting anything like a blueprint of the lower they're selling. If I was selling an 80% lower, I'd sure get my hands on as many uppers as I could and see what works and what doesn't. Then the customer could have some assurance it's a go....

It's the young bucks that can't shoot; they have options like running away or fighting that Social Security recipients aren't really good at anymore.. The old guys know the gun is their only response to violence.

Short of a police state, there are no real solutions. I rather have the random shootings to a police state; lesser of two evils....I can avoid most mass shootings by not being in a mass of peeps. Police state is everywhere, all the time.

I've been researching the same question. I'm in Kali and a stripped lower from PSA is currently $80. BUT after $50 for a background check and new safety card, plus $50-100 to the FFL transfer fee, and other things, it's $225 by the time I get it home. There must be somebody out there that has a complete PSA rifle and has access to another brand of lower to see if it works.... Does anyone else notice the pages are really slow to load? Is the forum sending tracking software and other gifts? I'm using the Brave browser to specifically stop that kind of stuff. I'm used to the Calguns forum where it loads within a second or two, here it's like 7+ seconds.

Nor Cal resident, been in the 'Gun Culture' for at least 25 years. I found this forum researching AR10 and clones. Unlike my AR15 stuff, nobody in the gun industry wanted to play nice and agree on one standard for the guns. What got me started on this was Palmetto selling complete uppers for $300, and what I really want, the 20" SS barrel with a 15" Keymod handguard rifle kit. The rifle kit is currently OOS, but around Labor Day, it was $349 and then bounced up to $399. I was used to seeing $1000+ 308 guns, so not much interest. But at less than half that price, I'm interested. (can buy a lot of ammo with $500) Palmetto currently has their lower on sale for $79.99, but being in Kali, the price more than doubles when I include the $25 background check, $25 for another Safety Card, $50-100 for the FFL's transfer fee, 8.5% sales tax and gas for two trips to the FFL. We got a 10 day wait before we can pick anything up. So what I want to know, is there an 80% lower that will work with the PSA kit? I already have the Bridgeport and all the tooling, so that is the plan. I'm well aware that PSA makes a semi unique piece, as do most of the vendors. And the conventional wisdom is to buy everything from one vendor, but if anybody has found something that will work, please speak up!
