Troy Posted February 27, 2017 Report Share Posted February 27, 2017 Hi all, I am planning to get a lower for my .308 upper budget build. I am looking to get the lower from Tennessee Arms as I'm cheap and would like to know your opinions on them. I have read some members posts of Tennessee lowers and will be trying to acquire one. I have been searching for an Aero or other LR 308 compatible lower and all the places I see are out of stock and have been for some time. I built this upper about 6 months ago. I have been occasionally swapping off of my Cross Machine Tool 6.5 CM rifle lower (also built by me) and take this out occassionally. Fully functional and now I want to give this upper it's own lower. DPMS Lo profile upper. Spinta Precision 18" SS 1:10 rifle gas barrel with a clamp on block, Spinta .308 melonited BCG, Surplus Ammo CH with Strike Industries Ext. latch, 15" unbranded free float keymod handguard, Precision Armament M4-72 .30 cal brake. Magpul MBUS pro sights and a cheap 1-4 optic with QD mount. Tennessee Arms has a sale on a preassembled lower as I already have the other parts to complete it. Will be contacting them shortly as I have a dealer nearby who is willing to send the FFL to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
survivalshop Posted February 27, 2017 Report Share Posted February 27, 2017 Even though the Upper works on another Lower , my thoughts are always to match the Upper & Lower Receivers with the same Manufacturer , because of possible Tolerance Stacking ,causing fitment issues, because there are no Spec'd standards on 308AR's . Its your call . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
