Pa10 gen 3 lower compatibility

[DakotaR]

Recently got a thunder tactical 308 upper and I’m wondering if a stripped gen 3 pa10 lower will fit. Has anyone combined these two before ? I want to get a stripped 100% lower and not mess with the 80% but I have no idea what will function properly with the thunder tactical upper

The uppers look identical to DPMS LR-308 upper receivers, but there's no guarantee that they're machined identical.  Best bet is to use a DMPS LR-308 lower.

PA Gen 3 stuff is proprietary, and they state that on their website. All the PA-10 stuff is proprietary, different from the DPMS pattern in very small ways.

That’s what I figured. The price of the stripped  pa10 lower is so appealing I was really hoping I could work it out and not have to hassle with an 80% lower. But In my price range I think that’s my only route. I’m not very experienced and it’s my first build so the info is Very much appreciated

Yeah it is. My first one was $325.  Things were WAY DIFFERENT in Jan 2010.
