Anyone hear of Lowers made by "Tactical Defense"?

Wonder if this is the same as Tactical Machine Co lowers.  It appears to be configured to fit DPMS type uppers/parts etc.  Anyone here have any experience with them?

Link, brother - provide one.  Let us see what you're talking about.  Haven't heard of that name as a company yet.  We'll get into it, though.  <thumbsup>

Not on a link,,, there's one at a local store.  I'm gonna go back and get a better look, see where it's made etc.

If you can grab the manufacturer's info from the roll mark, that will help.  It'll have their company name (Tactical Defense), as well as the city and state on there.  That's the info needed in order to start digging.  I get absolutely nothing in a Google search on them...

Sounds like TDS.

They have a store just down the road from where I live. A buddy and I frequently visit the store.

They offer a few of their "own" uppers and I THINK a stripped AR-15 lower but they clearly don't make any of the parts.

Last time I was there they had some really nice looking AR-15 lowers for around $80 but I think they were more of a "buddy with the maker" deal then a TDS name brand item.

OK Gang,, thanks for the info.  The store clerk "goofed" the name,, I went in and eye-balled the lower and it's Tactical Machine Co.  So,, the next question is are their .308 Lowers good stuff, DPMS upper compatible, MagPul mag compatible?

They're good to go, and also have a section here on the board.  Hop in there and check it out.  <thumbsup>
