Scott Perkins Posted March 28, 2020 Report Share Posted March 28, 2020 I've been told the lower reciever is a Aero Precision. It has deport and detadi engraved on the left side of the selector. The Aero Precision engraving isn't on the left side. Anyone ever see this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpete Posted March 28, 2020 Report Share Posted March 28, 2020 No snark intended. Welcome to the forum. Post up a piture and someone will be able to answer with more certainty. Aero makes a lot of lowers with specialty markings including ones without the Aero A. Is it AR15 or 308 AR? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willbird Posted March 28, 2020 Report Share Posted March 28, 2020 (edited) Does not look like an Aero to me ?? Close up of both sides would be helpful. Edited March 28, 2020 by willbird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Perkins Posted March 28, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2020 Thanks for your input willbird. I've seen aero lowers before. I just haven't seen one like this guy is trying to sell me. He's got my deposit through paypal. I really feel he's trying to rip me off. But I don't know everything about these lowers. Just looking for some help.

willbird Posted March 28, 2020 Report Share Posted March 28, 2020 (edited) That little lip along the top edge where upper mee ts lower is an Palmetto state armory Gen 2 or gen 3 attribute ?? If you are buying a complete working gun I am not a bit afraid of PSA, I have a gen 2 lower that I put a gen 1 upper onto. BUT parts interchange as far as other uppers will be an issue, and PSA gen 2 stripped uppers seem to be chronically unavail.

dpete Posted March 28, 2020 Report Share Posted March 28, 2020 Compare your picture to the ones I put in this thread. Your picture is not an Aero. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mfg name, city, and state are required as well as a serial number for something sold as a firearm. The 80% folks offer custom selector engraving.

Albroswift Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 It doesn't have the lines of a Aero, even if Aero sold 80% forgings. It doesn't have the lines of a AMT 80% or one of the many that look identical and probably come from the same mill. It DOES have the basic lines of a DPMS/ little bit of curve bottom rear of trigger guard most others are straight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DNP Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 I would ask for the deposit back and continue on in my search. Doesn’t smell like a straight up deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 Doesn't even follow Aero's lines, not even close or anywhere near. That's a bullshiit seller, right there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albroswift Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 @Scott Perkins Regardless of above comments, would really like some more/ better photos in the name of science. Also, no manufacturer or S/N: quite possible you will run into issues buying or selling, don't know what the laws are in your state but it would be tough to get it to fly here in WA. Maybe the S/N: and manufacture name and address is on the other side, check it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
